I put some real effort in getting dressed for the SCD-Glitterati Winter Formal last night. With the request to wear white, the chances of duplicating someone else’s look were much higher, so I decided to make something completely new by combining two gowns into one. This is the result and I think it was a triumph. Or it would have been if some IRL friends didn’t drop by about 15 minutes into the party with pizza and a movie. So, I officially spent longer getting dressed than I did at the party.
Gracies new fall collection includes a gorgeous retro pop miniskirt that would have been at home in the closets of Twiggy or Jean Shrimpton, but luckily for me, it’s at home in my closet. With a retro pop print and color palette, this delightful miniskirt is perfect for fall.
I may be the only person in America who likes Kenley and hopes she does well in Project Runway. When she talks back and they all exclaim about her attitude, I shout at the television and say “What about Santino, what about Jeffrey? Aren’t women allowed to defend their work, too?” But, I really had to disagree with her argument last week, She said people want a show and classic doesn’t make a show. Wrong! That’s simply because she hasn’t seen Gracie Winnfield’s designs. Gracie does classic with an edge.

This is one of the outfits that makes me feel all capable and organized. Wearing this, my duplicate landmarks magically disappear and the pinks are in the pink folder and the purples in the purple folder and all of a sudden I know whether I should file salmon under pink or orange and do it consistently.
Well, sadly that doesn’t happen anywhere but in my head. But I sure do look the part.
