Confessions of a Dressaholic
I decided that this season would be all about the dresses — you know, easy one-stop dressing and all that. But I think maybe I’ve taken it a little too far. Help me! I’m overdosing on dresses! First there was the green silk print “obi” dress. Then came this blouson bright print silk dress:
Both, I rationalized, were for weddings I was going to this summer. But now I’ve gone and had this bib dress made from a fabulous vintage white Courreges fabric:
And… oops, then came this cream silk shirtdress:
Somebody stop me before I order again! I managed to walk out of the first fitting for these last two dresses without ordering anything else — and let me tell you, that took a lot of will power! — but then at the last fitting, I just had to poke around the racks and of course I stopped dead on another dress, and another fabric, that I’d long been eyeing. I couldn’t help it; the silk print matched my new linen and yellow floral Gunmetal peeptoes! Yes, dear reader, I confess: I was weak. I ordered another one… and a coordinating jacket. Help me!!!!!

You have such nice taste. Everything looks lovely. If you’re patient, you’ll find ample opportunity to wear all the dresses you want! Yay for you!

Thanks! I got the dresses from the new dressmaker I’ve started going to, and am now completely obsessed with. Once you go bespoke you can never go back!!

I wonder what handbags are of better quality - Gucci or Fendi? What’s your opinion?
