fashion dilemma

Ivy was trying to decide whether to wear a sequined cape from an older sister's ballet perfomance to her ballet class. She kept eyeing it, wondering outloud if the other girls would laugh at her if she wore it. She was obviously capitivated by it, however, and could not take it off. Finally she decided it was just too much. "I would be a glittering disaster!" she pronounced, and left the cape at home.
