It would look wonderful with purple boots (I've got a bit of a purple boot obsession at the mo, if you weren't already aware.)<br />xxxVixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05263970600699632661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-72459759275033421112017-11-04T20:06:01.858-07:002017-11-04T20:06:01.858-07:00@Bibi
Yes! Charlie Brown. I hadn't put it toge...@Bibi<br />Yes! Charlie Brown. I hadn't put it together, but you nailed it. On paper, Tatiana sounds like "not my thing" but I'll give it a sniff next time I see it. Thank you for the heads-up.<br /><br />@Radostin<br />It is still cold but eh, that's what coats are for ;)<br /><br />@Ann<br />If it weren't for the creasing I could live with the rest of it. I'm keeping it anyway, but it does prevent me wearing it often.<br />Goodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17383404429461423998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-33613147297119659622017-11-04T08:56:11.289-07:002017-11-04T08:56:11.289-07:00I was going to say, what do you mean Frocky Horror...I was going to say, what do you mean Frocky Horror? It's fabulous! But then I learned of all its shortcomings. Gaping buttons, cuffs that won't stay put, and above all, the ironing requirements ** shudder ** It's still looking fabulous, though, and no need to go overboard with the accessories. xxxPolyester Princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05602613792584925087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-83809454449945798262017-11-04T02:26:35.235-07:002017-11-04T02:26:35.235-07:00I love this dress, it's really splendid.

That way you could wear it again in under three years, as it would be a really different look. Your black and gold pumps are of course a much more elegant pairing. Looking forward to your next iteration of yellow and black - in fact, perhaps I shall join you tomorrow xxRadostinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05891397765534930525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-62449308174953449992017-11-03T20:15:04.152-07:002017-11-03T20:15:04.152-07:00For some reason the first thing I thought of when ...For some reason the first thing I thought of when I saw that dress was Charlie Brown & his yellow & black shirt. Very cartoonishly 80's from the color scheme to the baggy shoulders (which would accommodate pads). I like to think of linen as textured not creased. Ironing is a national pastime in south Asia- every thing from underwear to sheets to shirts to jeans (!) I refuse to iron unless absolutely necessary (like never). <br /><br />Tatiana is a floral/woods/musk thing that veers white flowers. Top notes: bergamot, hyacinth and orange blossom. Heart: gardenia, jasmine, narcissus, rose and tuberose. Base: amber, musk and sandalwood. Even though it has 2 of my most disliked flowers (narcissus & hyacinth) and can veer to smelling rather 'bug spray' with it's sharpness on some people - I like it! I like it because I like florals and this perfume was sooooo different from the plasticky vanillas & cloyingly sweet ethyl maltol bombs that are/were popular. Tatiana was my first white floral love & probably my rebuttal to the gallons of Giorgio my mom wore. <br /><br />Bibi Maizoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07383381158640915162noreply@blogger.com
