no 15 jacket

i thought that there was only one dress that was known by an acronym, the little black dress (the "lbd"). not so! or so i learned some days ago. there is also the "lnd". you would think that i would have been able to guess what the dress was pretty much as soon as i saw its acronym. but no! it took me a couple of days to figure it out. and then i had to confirm it with some people in the fashion biz. (you guessed it: the little navy dress.) so ... if there is the "lbd" and the "lnd", why shouldn't there be (my personal favourite) the "lpd"?

lime-ade jacket

during my recent bout of wardrobe spring cleaning -- when the cleaning was particularly deep -- i set aside a few beloved pieces that, initially, i had earmarked for the charity bin. i put these pieces in a box and put them away in storage. i told myself that i would give them away if, within a year's time, i didn't reach for them. i didn't last a year.

they tried to convince me not to get it sweater dress

are sweater dresses for women the equivalent of sweater vests for men? let's hope so! (p.s. i just discovered the top button on this woollen vest!)

forest green jumper dress

remember the tv series felicity? i have been watching it (again). there is a scene, in the first season, in which noel goes into the library lounge and asks meghan if she has seen felicity. meghan responds that she hasn't and adds something like, "everyone that i have seen in here has been pretty well dressed". that line struck a chord with me. it reminded me that i don't have to be well dressed, by anyone's standards, including my own, every day ... or ever, for that matter. so the days of not being well dressed begin. i can honestly say that i have never been more excited about getting dressed.
