Dress Envy

I currently have dress envy for all of the dresses on shopbop.com. Holy goodness there are nice dresses there, it almost makes me never want to wear pants again and just wear pretty dresses for the rest of my life! (Not possible to do in my part of the world because of cold winters, but if it were possible I might consider it).

I don’t even know where to start to show you my favourites!

I used to be obsesssed with that site. Then I realized I was just hurting myself because I would never be able to afford them :( haha.

Now see – there is the difference between us Kate- You just post the pictures, while I would COMPLETELY waste my time by matching the (gorgeous by the way) dresses to patterns, so that I could torture myself by never making them!

What an awesome blog! Found you through EntreCard. I have just opened a directory that I think your blog would fit right into. It is a niche Directory focused on lifestyle & entertainment, there is a category for Fashion there.
Like I said it has only just been launched and is a little lonely at the moment but if you want to have a look, just click on my name in this comment!
Keep it up and hope to hear from you soon.

Had to talk about the model in the second to last set of pictures. She’s on the right, wearing a purple/reddish strapless dress (eggplant?) with black tights and black shoes.

Um, her face looks sort of, how shall I say, beat up. She looks scrappy, like she’s protected herself in the cell block before.

Just the thought that crossed my mind when I saw her face…

hahaha she does look a bit beat up. All the models look silly and not happy. Only one girl looks sort of happy- the one with the short white dress who’s kind of tugging on it.

I think models should smile more.

a lot of them look like they are about to say something, then the photographer took the picture, so they are stuck with their mouth open and a weird look on their face.
