Last Chance for This Dirty Little Thing Dollarbie

Scarlet

In Jezebel, Bette Davis decides to wear a red dress to the Olympus Ball where all the men wear black and all the women wear white. If it were as brilliantly made as this dress from Sysy’s, how could she have resisted?

Of course, since film plots always punish independent and strong women, her fiance dumps her over the dress. There’s duels, plagues and death – and it all could have been avoided it she had only been obedient  and worn white. Of course, then she would not have been interesting enough for a movie, now would she?

And when I got the notice that Hart had released a beautiful FROZEN Linda make up for group members…..I knew exactly what dress that skin deserved. Continue reading

Rangoon or It Doesn't Hurt to Ask

I have told you about the XNT Rangoon Shirts before in a post in which I wished designer Nix Sands would make a underpants layer so the shirts would tuck in and be wearable with lower-waisted clothing.  In conversation, I explained that not all of us women like baring our navels all the time and he promised to look into it.  I was delighted, then, when he dropped two new Rangoon shirts on me with the underwear layer. One was black cherry and the other was this gorgeous pearl shirt.

Celebrate!

Boom has yet another enticing and lovely outfit – a dress this time – called Celebration. However, please don’t store this in your Christmas Clothing and Jewelry box to molder away until next year. It’s a lovely dress that can be worn  year round. Here you see it with the delicate lace jacket from Zenith – a tintable froth of a jacket.
