    My condolences, you are very strong to have made that decision in her best interest and I am sure she would be thankful. We lost a cat last year, she was run over while I was out for an hour with the dog, and I sometimes still cry. We miss her every day, but the memory is always there.

    Wow, some great items everyone! I won this NOS chambray dress, and it was a good deal, perhaps because it's out of season a bit.

    Oh wow, that dress is stunning! Especially the back, and yes I do! I often feel trapped and panic if I can't get something off. Who made that dress, is there a label?

    vintage first names no longer in use today or not popular anymore

    Lovely purse Miss G! It's rare to see one in that colour. Although I do distinctly remember you announcing a few pages back that it would be "it" for now ;)

    ^Cute! Make sure you post pics after you made it. I really wanted a dress with a cape after seeing one that wasn't my size.

    Should I or Shouldn't I?

    ^^Maybe I'm odd, but I don't know if it's a good wedding guest dress, too flashy and a bit too Bar-wench for me.

    Interesting article on disposable fashion

    Why on Earth would one pay $50 for a throw-away dress, if one decided that was a great idea in the first place? Shocking.

    Interesting article on disposable fashion

    Now that you put it out there, watch the patent lawyers scrambling to get there first!:D I have to say though, that not all things from the High street are bad quality.
