So I take the dress from my closet and begin to create an
outfit. I pull out these shoes. The color matches my dress and they are both
dressy enough and comfortable enough to wear to a wedding. The shoes at a
wedding are very important. They need to look so cute that they appear to be uncomfortable,
but actually are very comfortable. That’s the perfect shoe. With black panty
hose, the dress and the shoes work. But alas it is sleeveless so I add my Alice
Abrams lace shirt that is also one of a kind. I got this from the designer when
I was in Prague. “Hi Alice. Thanks! “. Look
at how it picks up the color of the dress and how beautiful the lace looks on
the back where the neck Vees.
If you look carefully you will see that the dress has red
threads coming down from the seams. It is part of the dress. Rather than cut
off the thread when done with the seams the designer continued weaving the thread and
let it hang from the hem. If you look somewhere else on the outfit you will see
something red. It’s wooden, vintage and simple. Just a hint and a surprise to
tie it all together.
I did add some bling. The gold necklace is from Venice
Italy. My husband bought it for me when we were dating. The earrings are Judith
Ripka, another gift from my husband. Someday I’ll tell you about the earrings
and you’ll understand one of the reasons why my husband loves me so much. I add
a simple dress purse that I bought in second hand shop years ago. I think this
is it.
Then the
blue dress arrives.Doctor Lynn
