The Chinese say your jade will break before you do, and I like that as a thought, especially as my jade hasn't broken yet. I guess though that if life were going to break me that there is a fair chance it would have done it by now. So here's to being the unbreakable Mrs B! (well the one from the Titanic was unsinkable).
I love the dark emerald colour of the silk. It is beautiful and a classic colour. The dress has a slash at the neckline with the ornate knotted buttons that so typify the chinese style. The high neckline is a challenge for me as I don't like things tight around my neck but this is nice and roomy and I can comfortably fit all fingers between the collar and my neck (this matters).
The unusual aspect to this dress is the big Obi sash. I love this feature of Japanese/Chinese clothing. A huge bow at the back? WOW, though as Marv says the bows tend to be wider than I am! Still they are great fun, and it is cute to wear a bow at the back of your belt, it really emphasises your derriere in a nice way.
Dress: Jade Dress in Teal with Obi Sash Belt
Shoes: Kurt Geiger
This dress is perfect for helping a monkey decide if she can fit through a small space, the bow acts like cats whiskers, if the bow will fit through, so will Merv.
