I was having a mildly depressing day today- boring stuff at work, grumpy spouse, blah blah blah- until I came across this picture.
OK, yes, this is the princess of gothy/punky/emo/god-knows-what fashion herself. Avril Lavigne, age 24, leader of teen-rebellion couture. (A little detour here: isn't she getting a little too old for that stuff?)
But I still get a kick out of seeing her demented, absurd version of what normal people would call formal wear:
Oh boy. Fishnets? Ok, in some situations. Like, not-awards-show situations. And that dress- ha! It truly made my day. It's plaid! It's crumpled! It's shapeless, strapless, and is threatening to slip and disrobe Ms. Lavigne at any given moment! It has ruffles and bows and god-knows-whats, and a black tulle lining with a mind of its own!
And the shoes! Gold, and bejeweled, and sparkly, and shiny! I'm about to faint from delight. Avril has cheered me up to no end.

isn't she 23?
I'm not sure. Wikipedia said she was 24, so that's what I went with. You may be right :)
