So I am still riding my Rodarte for Target high. Sadly I still have some unworn pieces sitting in my closet (not a good sign!) but this lace printed dress will be one piece that will (and has gotten) get lots of wear.
Tavi wore it a few weeks ago and mentioned how it reminded her of Edward Gorey illustrations, which obviously had me (ok I mean I had my Mom) searching for my Edward Gorey Dwindling Party pop up book. At one time this creepy book was my favorite childhood book, apparently it freaked my sister out (she MUST be normal0. The book is now
a very expensive colletor item. It was such a creepy book but wow I loved it. And now thanks toTtavi, that is all I can think of when I wear this dress, and it makes me love it even more!
OK so these outfit pictures are old but I forgot to take pictures today!! Deal with it ;)
And the Dwindling party... a book of a family who never made it out of a {theme} park...
If any book should be turned into a movie this one should!! Please tell me someone else adored this book! =)
They were dampened a bit by a brief sudden shower, And apparently Mother dissolved into air.

ReplyDeleteI have the black lace Rodarte cardi still sitting in my closet with the tags on. You would think I would have found a reason and a place to wear it?! I am super 'cited for Gaultier at Tar-jay this weekend, though. Love that dress on you, still!
ReplyDeleteHey, I am so glad I saved the book, it's about 20+ years old and still popping!
ReplyDeleteHopefully I will not dissolve into thin air there has been a lot of rain lately.
Ahhhh I want that lace dress SO badly and missed out on it :-( You look lovely in it and make me want it even more Amber!
ReplyDeleteOh, man! That book always creeped me out! I was wondering why you sent mom to find it!!!
