MamaToJakers · Nov 1st, 2008, 02:56 PM

What a beautiful and unique dress! It looks perfect on you!!

leothelnss · Nov 1st, 2008, 03:52 PM

^ I agree, you look fantastic in it! Not a print I would think of for a dress, it's very unique!

I agree that it can be mis-judged by some as not-as-manly, but he gets revenge by looking like a million bucks!

Thanks.... Yup... DH is more high maintainence than I.... though I cannot afford anything he desires... He works and buys his own luxuries (and most of mine)...
He's got a great eye for the next "in" thing...

OH yes, and completely adjustable. If you can follow the line of the shoulder strap you'll see where it goes - it's kinda hidden in the photo -

India -
you should have lied about the shoulder strap.....dolt! just reinforces the reasons to have a Rosemary!

jandelvis-babe.....
that dress is just awesome....great textile/design coupled w/a timeless shape and the unique applique for the neckline....it's just sublime!
AND - it looks totally FAB on you!

now - I'm just so green w/envy. It's so evident that you have a knack and love for textiles and prints.....I so want to wear 'em....but feel that I just can't pull them off!

I need some guidance here....from all that I have read - those of us who are vertically challenged - and petite and "squat-ish"....the advice is to dress in a more monochromatic way (to keep the color consistent) to give an "impression" of being elongated (aka TALL). Blocks of color will just break-up the visual plane and only reinforce how short we are.....
this also translates to prints as well.....what do you think????

ah - to be cho, leo, mockinglee, and jandelvis.....

I just bought this Bulga Misa and I love it! (I tried to copy and paste the pic but when I right click on it, the "paste" option isn't available)

Come look at my new Bulga Misa in Silver! I can't justify TWO silver bags...or can I?

chodessa · Nov 8th, 2008, 07:48 PM

Gorgeous tonij!!

Okay, I've never posted pics here and am wretched with a camera, but here are a couple of fall beauties I just got.

Treesje Avalon Grande in Plum

The second is Dautore Hobo (they all have numbers rather than names)

And finally, it's our girl Beatrice. I know she doesn't belong here, but I never posted pics of her, so here they are.

tonij2000 · Nov 9th, 2008, 01:26 AM

^ I looove Treesje and I'm curious about Dautore, congrats! I almost bought a Dautore a few weeks ago.
