I've combed the limited shops & boutiques on here on the sandbar and so far, the best option for a lady-like, summer, late-afternoon but into the evening type of event dress is this:
Nice, huh? Conservative? Yup. Fits like a glove - you bet. I mostly like it. Although it wasn't really what I had envisioned wearing to the soiree. It is...how do you say... "okay".
I'm escaping the sandbar for a last-ditch shopping trip to a larger (but not any more cosmopolitan) metropolis where, if I find something better suited then this little frock will be sent back from whence it came and I'll wear the new thing, if there is one to be found.
But, if I don't.
If I don't?
Will these shoes work with that dress?
I'm just asking...'cause I'd rather not have to try to find shoes on this little island, where the concept of trendy and fun usually means polka dot and striped MacIntosh rubber boots. It's what happens when you live in the country, surrounded by cows, pigs and lots and lots of red mud. Polka dot striped rubber boots. Christien Laboutan? Manolo Blanik? Anne Klein even? Not a chance. Polka dot striped rubber boots. You can see the problem can't you?
Hit the comments button and let me know your thoughts:
Yes, the cow-hide offers a nice fashion tension to contrast the conservative nature of the creme dress
No, what are you thinking mixing animal hide with raw silk? I know you live in the land of cows & pigs, but really!
