She posted pictures of these three dresses on her Instagram, with the caption “I'm suffering from indecisiveness,
can you all helpchoose the
best one?”
Just a few minutes later, she received many likes and comments.
Lennon:“They all look great. You can buy them all and wear them interchangeably.”
Caylee, her best friend since she was little, also liked and commented on it.
Caylee:“Wow, you have such great taste. All three of them suit you so well. Let Lennon buy them all, it’s not like
