another dress

I had found a really nice piece of wool that was black based but not plain black.

I could wear black every day.  I wear dresses everyday.  This breaks it up a bit.  I read an article about a creative woman who bought herself a uniform so she had an easier time feeling put together at work, white blouse, black slacks. 

I realized my a-line dresses are very much the same.  It has been something I have unconsciously done for a long time just changing the uniform.  Dresses mostly.  Different lengths at times.  As I have gotten older, I do this more.  Find a group of clothes or a single style that is most comfortable.  Currently, a-line dresses.  Just under the knee.  Sleeves.  No sleeves. These might be around for awhile.  I do enjoy not tripping over my hems. 

I break these up a bit with sheaths.  They feel a little bit dressier and even more classic.  I also do not trip over my hems in these. 

I was really tired of tripping over hems.  My last frontier dress I made shorter then normal because I was so tired of tripping.  I really like it.  Now, if I could just find some more lovely flannel.  I think it will be next fall before that happens.  I do feel a bit babbly today.  Oh well.
