Skirts May Appear Pinker Then They Are


I was so excited to show this outfit today until I discovered that the skirt turned pink in all the photos.   In reality it is a lovely tomato red (seen here back when I apparently had better lighting and a rug in my dining room).  Not that there is anything wrong with pink, but really tomato red is better.

My dry cleaner is gaslighting me


I am pretty sure my dry cleaner is trying to gaslight me by shortening all my skirts and dresses so it appears I am getting taller.  I swear this used to be a fairly age appropriate, conservative (for me) dress.  Now it looks like a Julia Roberts Pretty Woman reject.

My Sartorial White Whale


For years I have been trying to find the perfect winter white outfit.   As goals go, this one is probably one of my least practical as white + me = stains.   However, on Friday I found this off white skirt at the cheap discount place down the street and threw caution to the wind.  The sweater is not quite as yellow as it seems in the photo and I am very happy with the result.
