Day Dressing

A new year deserves new dresses, don't you think? These remind me of what a spunky 1940s or '50s career gal would wear to work...


Nanette Lepore "Pretty Plaid", $348

Trina Turk "Sarafina 2", $268

Maybe I've been watching too many old movies of late, but I find myself wishing that people still dressed as elegantly as they used to...I would trade my stacks of jeans and tees for a closet-full of pretty dresses and hats any day!

  1. Y'know how you can go to these places in amusement parks (or in Gatlinburg) where you can dress up like cowboys & have your picture made? There ought to be a place where you can have your picture made like 40's characters. You & Zach should dress up like Bogie & Bacall & have a B&W portrait done! That would be cool. I'd do it, but I look more like Walter Huston in "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre" than Bogie in the same picture. :)

  2. I would toooootally do that. I love Lauren Bacall! Although I think it would take a lot of hair, makeup, and wardrobe to make me look like a leggy blond :)
