pockets and drapery

This fabric is a bit too heavy for this style, keeps dragging down and is really too warm, but I like the shape and the draping of it anyway. Even if it is a bit reminiscent of a repurposed parachute. I wanted the khaki version but it wasn’t in my size, so figured would give the blue a chance. Keep forgetting about blue as an option, somehow, when it comes to clothes that aren’t jeans.

weekend distraction: Splendid apparel tops and dresses

I really like the loose, light look and draping of these Splendid tops and dresses. Ideal for summer, I suppose, but this is how I would like to dress throughout the year. The dresses gathered at the waist are excellent examples of that Grecian style I so love, a style that flatters so quietly, subtly, easy to throw on and no hindrance to the bearer. Great colors, too. I am thinking maybe if I am good I can get one…

Or this in white, instead of black. Imagine with a motorcycle jacket?

Not sure about the gathering at the hems here but like the silhouette and the color.

This shirt is maybe my favorite…not cheap but such beautiful lines and draping, and exactly my kind of green.
