There is always at least a day or two of Indian Summer. Where I live it will be summer 'till Mid October... maybe my co-worker and I need to kidnapp you for a vintage sewing clinic. Saturday night we ran an event where we watched home movies with total strangers. The feeling was nearly unanimous by all that Kodachrome was God's gift to photography, and that women just dressed better 65 years ago! Oh the dresses and hats we saw, in motion! Oh, how I wish you were there!<BR/>Cheers,<BR/>Ladyschweigladyschweignoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12773096.post-1155513245114712032006-08-13T18:54:00.000-05:002006-08-13T18:54:00.000-05:00I see I'm not the only one who spotted these. htt...I see I'm not the only one who spotted these. http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/17249976/c/535.html<BR/><BR/>Destiny, I think.Junohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08179473344920979303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12773096.post-1155507612510206402006-08-13T17:20:00.000-05:002006-08-13T17:20:00.000-05:00Autumn for you means spring for we Antipodeans - y...Autumn for you means spring for we Antipodeans - yay! This means I get to go back through your archives and decide which dress I'll make first (btw - most likely to be the Butterick wrap dress 4790 from posts late June/early July). It has been very difficult hearing of all that dress-wearing-induced skipping and giggling while the weather here is definitely saying "pants to that". Might also have something to do with being 7 months pregnant. At least spring will bring a return to a more normal waistline. Here's hoping Baby finds the hum of the sewing machine as soothing and relaxing as I remember it from my childhood . . .<BR/><BR/>Emma from Down UnderAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12773096.post-1155502019947071902006-08-13T15:46:00.000-05:002006-08-13T15:46:00.000-05:00You could buy that dress and put it in cold storag...You could buy that dress and put it in cold storage for the winter.

Hell, we've even had surprisingly hot runs of days during October, in recent years — I've seen people in and around Toronto strolling about with their shorts and tanks back on at those times! ('Course, they're a stubborn lot who refuse to wear snow boots, mitts or hats in the Winter and yet complain constantly about the cold, so what can I say.) And who *says* that bright colours can only be worn when the seasonal sun's on the rise or peaking!<BR/>If you want it, Erin …oraclehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05828932219379264121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12773096.post-1155495172897802112006-08-13T13:52:00.000-05:002006-08-13T13:52:00.000-05:00the thing i love about zappos is that you can sort...the thing i love about zappos is that you can sort by color, so here goes: <BR/><BR/>it's not an ankle strap, but i've been coveting these:<BR/>http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/8858950/c/54452.html<BR/><BR/>ladylike heels: (the first ones here match perfectly, i think)<BR/>http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/17249976/c/535.html<BR/>http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/17221142/c/535.html<BR/><BR/>practical (i.e. flats!):<BR/>http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/14286213/c/60888.html<BR/>http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/14928849/c/2085.html<BR/>http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/17222986/c/66432.html<BR/><BR/>summery:<BR/>http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/10340322/c/12731.html<BR/>http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/17258951/c/535.html<BR/>http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/17256535/c/57793.html<BR/>http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/13863320/c/535.html<BR/><BR/>i'd replace the brown laces on these with another color: <BR/>http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/17218210/c/57793.html<BR/><BR/>-rAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12773096.post-1155489385075213652006-08-13T12:16:00.000-05:002006-08-13T12:16:00.000-05:00I think this dress is from seller, Happybirthdaymr...I think this dress is from seller, Happybirthdaymrpresident??? on eBay?
