Dylan Thomas is one of my favourite poets, I remember with fondness my Dad buying me a copy of "Under Milkwood" before I went to university as no bookcase was complete without it. I went to see Guy Masterson perform it at the Edinburgh Fringe the year I graduated. Les was brave enough to take me. We had fun that weekend - it explains why I don't drink Whiskey and why Lassie cannot be trusted!!! I love the characters that he created and the lines they get to say.
Today's dress is called Lolita which is a nickname for Dolores, and well a soon to be 38 year old widow is probably as far away from a Lolita as you can get but it is fab fun but only because I don't look my age (self delusion is wonderful). I can't believe it is March already, I am stuggling to get my head round the fact that 1/6th of the year has already gone, and soon it will be the end of Q1!! January and February need to start passing more slowly, it is no good when March arrives to quickly. March ages me! LOL
Today I wanted to wear something girlie but feminine. I really do like the lace top and the V neckline, the piping around the edge of the puff ball sleeves is just such a sweet little detail. The wide yoke at the waist opening into a full skirt with contrast stitching makes this a great dress to start the weekend with. I deserve a fab weekend :)
