"The trouble with you is the trouble with me, got two good eyes, but you still don't see." - Grateful Dead








Curtain rises. On the stage is an array of clothing racks, filled with hangers and hangers of the most unusual items. Statement pieces some may call them.
Enter stage right, a girl of about sixteen years of age, wearing orange skinny jeans and a t-shirt declaring 'I'm a pepper'. She crosses to the rack nearest to her and begins to shuffle through it. Sighing, she continues on to the next, finding a handful of things to add to her already large stack of clothing strewn over her arm. She stops to answer a text. When she looks up the stage goes dark, all except for a dress that is under spotlight. She gasps, barely able to take in what she is seeing. You could say it was love at first sight. She immediately grabs it and tries it on. Satisfied that it fit well enough, she purchases it. She is beside herself with excitement. She can already tell that her and this fine new dress will be great friends. Even if it makes her chest look a bit boxy. Details.

P.S. My sis made me a supercute crane...I had to share the news...:)
P.P.S. This dress is one of my favorites because of its 70's vibe, crafy-cheesy details, and because it is so close to ugly. I always fall for the funny, unattractive pieces. They are my weakness.
