I adore these fit & flare dresses from Melissa Masse...I just wish they had an empire waist...I say, every single time I wear one. This dress, with its unexpected color combo, was fabulous...I lost track of the compliments I received. Fantastic fit.
The right arm of this dress was tight on me...that arm is 3 inches larger than my left arm. Asymmetrical hair...asymmetrical arms.
This multicolored Wendy necklace goes with everything!
My make-up with this outfit included...Urban Decay eyeliner in Roxy; Violet Voss eyeshadow in Donut, Pineapple, Lemonade, & Seashell; Nylon lipstick from Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics; & Teal the Cows Come Home nail polish by OPI.
I first wore this outfit to attend Concerts on the Square with Kate. I got there early & it was just so lovely in the shade of the trees. however...there was one loud lady...which I had managed to mostly block out until a homeless woman came around asking for money...loud lady said to her, what did I tell you yesterday?! Homeless woman answers faintly...you told me to get a job. As if that wasn't dreadful enough...she & her friends talked & laughed about it for 15 minutes. I felt angry, sad, & empty. Then the girlie showed up & everything was better. She brought wine. And hunted down food. We chose this particular concert because it featured an accordion player...yet, we wanted *more* accordion.
My Boxy Charm box was waiting for me when I got home. The next day David & I hit up Decon to see what was new...we came home with several antique clock carcasses that we'll use to disguise speakers & hang earrings from. That white wrought iron fence would have come home with us if it hadn't already been sold...the flowers were so beautiful...I'd never seen anything like it. Other things I did on Wednesday & Thursday in this dress...bought flowers at farmers' market, saw a neat old car in the co-op parking lot, & got new glasses.
Then I changed into some painting clothes, painted...then had Sal's pizza with David, Angie, & Freddie! On Friday, I wore this outfit for the last time...to work & check out the Big Gay Garage Sale...because how could you not want to go to something named that?! I came home with a few lovely things from some warm lovely people. It made me smile.
