So it only took me a week to put this up but now here it is! Shabby Apple emailed me after I got sent home from work a couple weeks ago to change my dress (it was deemed too short ). We started a yapping and I mentioned that maybe there may be other ladies out there in need of an office appropriate outfit. They gave me a few choices to choose from and I had to email back and say, 'Um, thank you but no thank you.' I usually don't look a gift horse in the mouth but if I was going to give away an outfit that would be perfect for an interview or the office it couldn't be too tight, too short or too anything. I chose these three above (although I did try to get you a gift certificate as a prize so you could choose your own dress but it seems my powers of persuasion are waning). I think the last one is the easiest one to make into multiple outfits--throw on a colorful cardi and skinny belt and you have two looks, add a large leather belt with studs and you have a sassy and sweet look. You can wear with high boots and a bomber jacket in fall and you have multiplied the wear of your dress yet again. Yes, the last dress (the Ingrid) would be the pragmatic choice for someone with a limited budget, closet space and limitless imagination.
So, I am not picking randomly. That's boring to me, I want to pick the person that needs the dress the most or knows of someone that could use a pretty frock. Let me know why you (or someone you know) needs a new dress. Is it an interview, a review, a reunion, a special event? Just let me know why and I will choose on Monday, August 9, 2010 the answer that pulled my heart strings the most or made me laugh or....Good luck!
