If you take a close look at some of my dresses you can see the crease of the old hem before I had it taken out. I don't think it's an age thing, more of a modesty thing. I know, funny, right?<br />Great dress!

Sometimes I think I'm too old to wear minis, but I guess I'll keep wearing them til I can't pull them off anymore. Anyway, the color on your dress is perfect!<br /><br />xoJuliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03522743459936260901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1679680415704254815.post-83285350227923030852010-12-05T20:12:05.221-08:002010-12-05T20:12:05.221-08:00Oh yes, other bloggers inspire me, but I can't...Oh yes, other bloggers inspire me, but I can't always pull off what they can.

I so wish I had your creative talents to sew and recreate a dress like this. The straps work perfectly. Short skirts are so far in my past...probably never to return.

It was a heavy fabric belt and I loved the irridesent (I know that's misspelled) quality to it. I actually feel good about my legs, my sweet husband gives me so many compliments on them, I just feel so exposed. Believe it or not, I think there's a prude living inside of me!<br /><br />Paula, You rock the short skirts! I really love that you always push it and it actually works!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16372495540919045223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1679680415704254815.post-30198588132485261942010-12-05T16:33:56.122-08:002010-12-05T16:33:56.122-08:00oh,no. you caught me at my weakness...short skirt...oh,no. you caught me at my weakness...short skirts.

I have thrifted several skirts that I won't wear until next summer and had considered trying ribbon for the straps, but I worry that that won't be heavy enough.<br /><br />As for length, yes, I admire it on younger bloggers, but somehow the state of my legs suggests I should no longer do "short."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
