The Sheath Unleashed

This dress is so deceptively classy.



From the front, it looks like a simple shift dress. Elegant. Classy. The kind of thing that's surprisingly hard to find, at major department stores.



And in the back, it's pure hippie. Seriously, the back has a crocheted pattern. I don't know if anyone has ever looked at a sheath dress before and thought, "Y'know, this could use more macrame," so power to the designer for that kind of creativity. And I guess they accomplished their goal of creating an unexpected take on a shift dress.

However, accomplishing a goal doesn't mean that goal was worthwhile in the first place.

Crochet: It's a Good Thing

I guess someone was paying attention the day that Martha covered turning doilies into outerwear.





Oh, impractical vests that remind me of something I'd find on the coffee table of someone's delightful elderly grandmother, how you entertain me.
