Angie frowned at them both. "You know if you keep making such a show of complete shock that I'm only a few minutes late, I'll stop bothering to try," she said slightly sourly, the comment directed more at Alicia than Melinda, though she'd caught the surprise on Melinda's face as well. She looked back and forth between the two of them, wondering if this was really a bad idea after all.
She narrowed her eyes at Alicia her lips twisting minutely. "A boa, Ally? That's pushing things a bit. But I'm not above transfiguring something that isn't quite right." At Alicia's question, Angie shrugged. "I don't mind spending money, so long as it's not completely unreasonable. I've no need for fashionable name brands; I just want a dress that fits well enough. How abut something in between? Mid-range prices for ordinary dresses? You know I don't care about brand names."
Boots on, she stood, brushing down her jeans and heading for the door. "Mel, any suggestions where we might go?" Despite her frowns and complaints, it was obvious Angie was ready to get going.
