Q : My friend got the same dress as me for her Quinceanera after seeing mine and her Quince is first . What should I do ?

IF YOU REALLY LIKE YOUR DRESS , KEEP IT . Even though the dress is the same , you both are two completely different people . Embrace it rather than seeing it as a malicious act . Plus , you probably already have everything in that color for your theme . If you switch , you need to make sure that your new dress is coming in on time . Another aspect to consider is money . What if the other dress costs more ? Is the store willing to make an exchange with you ? After considering all these aspects , be sure you and your parent ( s ) are all aware and agree to move forward with switching your dress . At the end of the day , it may not even be worth it .
