This Halston Heritage 100% silk sleeveless yellow drape front dress is lovely. I love how soft and silky it looks as well it should considering it is 100% silk. I have to wonder though this dress is $375 and 100% silk so why is it that some 100% silk dresses cost thousands depending on the designer name?

HALSTON HERITAGE Women’s Draped Dress

I guess maybe all silks are not created equally.

This dress looks more olive-greenish yellow in the picture. Colors in reality often do not 100% match colors in pictures. Actually” in the description on Amazon it says the color of this dress is “straw”. I guess straw would be in the greenish yellow family?

I’d wear this dress with some black pumps or maybe tan nude or other shade in the brown family. Red might even be good choice for a more bold and daring look.

Blue and green and red and brown–colors that I see around me; black and white and cream and yellow–you might think I’m feeling mellow but I’m not. I like and I want these Jessica Simpson luggage leather Kylie sandals so I am hereby imagining purchasing them.

Dans une moment I will head down the stairs to the kitchen where I will commence to cook dinner. I wish I knew how to say that all en Fracais mais I don’t. And I know the French I’ve tried is all kinds of horrendous.

So far today I have eaten popcorn and chicken and rice and tea biscuits and I had better make sure I workout for at least 2 hours before I go to bed.

I’m dressed like a lunatic today wearing a long coral skirt and a turquoise tank top with an aqua green skirt-type thingy over the tank top and another skirt-type thingy in brown under the tank top. It’s a rainy day but that’s good because it means it’s not as hell hot as it would be otherwise

Two red plastic cups sit atop my desk. I drank Crystal light lemonade out of them. There’s also a spoon and the wrappers from trident chewing gum. I’m imaginary shopping and have decided to buy this Vintage inspired A-line dress with collared halter neckline.

I think the dress looks super cute on the model. Of course it won’t look the same on me because I have these fibroids but once I get rid of these fibroids if I ever do it would look super cute on me too.

I don’t think this is a dress you just throw on and wear any place you feel like wearing it although my take is usually wear what you want where ever and let people give you all the looks they feel inclined to give.

The great thing about imaginary shopping is you can buy whatever you see that you like and want. Your imaginary bank account is bottomless. With that in mind I should probably head on over to where they sell dresses for $5000 but I hope if I ever am in a position to afford to spend $5000 on a dress I wouldn’t do it unless I had a very good reason. I mean $5000 for a dress that’s ridiculous to me.

I’ve seen this Black and white polka dot silk georgette sheath dress before and liked it. I don’t have any black and white polka dot dresses in my closet. Come to think of it I don’t think I have any kind of polka dot anything in my closet.

I saw a similar dress to this in a video with Emmy Rossum. She was showing what she has in her closet. I liked the dress and that’s how I first came across this dress. I went looking for alternatives to Emmy Rossum’s black and white polka dot dress because hers was by some major designer and cost a couple thousand dollars.

I figure black shoes would be the best choice of color shoes to wear with this dress. The question is what style of shoes?

You’re not going to believe it but I’m still singing “Can You Stop the Rain”.  It’s Friday morning. Just finished eating a tiny bowl of cream of wheat. Like less than a half cup of the stuff. Decided to start my daily imaginary shopping and have decided to pretend buy myself this leopard print jersey knit bias drape flounce dress.

Where would I wear this dress? I have no idea. I have no life. I go nowhere. Since I’m only imagining buying it I suppose I can imagine an occasion to wear it. More details about the leopard print jersey knit bias drape flounce dress

What color shoes would I wear with this dress? I like the shoes the model is wearing. I think black would probably be the best color or I could do a shade of brown tan or nude. Red might even work for a vamped up effect depending on the event to be attended. Or maybe a brownish shade of yellow? Don’t know maybe I’ll experiment over on Polyvore.

I’m kind of sleepy even though it’s only 9:32 AM. Didn’t sleep all that soundly. Went to bed late. The fibroids are acting up today. You should see my stomach.

For some reason I’ve awoken with the song “Can you Stop the Rain” by Peabo Bryson playing in my head. Don’t ask me why. I’m not going through a break up or anything although the hubby and I are both stressed out right now and I’m feeling a bit blue over the way things are. Anyway I’m browsing for my imaginary outfit to wear around the house this morning and i’ve decided on these lavender denim shorts with a nice breezy tank top.

I don’t really have anything planned for today. I keep intending to get around to starting the rewrite of my novel but my mind is too unsettled. I can’t write with my life hanging in limbo like it is. I want to feel good and inspired but I don’t really right now. I have this dread thing going on.

Maybe I should just close my eyes and imagine I’m Molly (she’s the heroine in my novel),. In another time and place at this particular hour Molly is getting ready to go to school. She’s doing her hair trying to style it to fit her face so she’ll look pretty enough for Anthony to notice. Anthony is her teacher the hero in my novel.

Oh to be free from mental strain and able to sit and write and disappear into my novel….

Anyway so my imaginary outfit for this morning are the lavender denim shorts with a nice breezy tank top. Maybe this tank top:

Or maybe instead of a nice breezy top I’ll wear this cute t-shirt:

Since I’m home I don’t need to worry about shoes” but just in case I might decide to step out in my imaginary outfit then a nice pair of flip flops or flat sandals would go great with the outfit.

Would you wear flats or heels with this cobalt blue drop waist dress from ModCloth?

Here’s another morning feeling blue…. It’s pretty early to be blogging about my fashion wants. The sun’s not up yet but whatever. I’m sitting here wearing my blue dress again. Not this cute little blue drop waist dress from Modcloth.

Blue drop waist pleated dress by arielles featuring flat shoes

My blue dress (the one I’m wearing), is going on two years old and only worn for sitting around the apartment.  This blue dress (the modcloth dress), I’m not sure where I would wear it or even if I could wear it. You know that age appropriate dressing stuff that people like to start throwing at you after age 25 or so?

The question is what kind of shoes would be best to wear with this dress? I personally think flats would work better than heels. Maybe some ballet flats or gladiator sandals.

I can see wearing a pair of red ballet flats with this dress. For some reason red seems to be a common choice of color for shoes to wear with a dress that’s an electric shade of blue.

I’m not sure the style of this dress would help to conceal a belly that isn’t flat though so even though I think it’s cute and I’d buy it to have it just in case an occasion might arise when I would want to wear it even if it’s only to wear at home it would probably sit in my closet like many of my items of clothing and never see the light of day.

Here’s the dress by itself:

I had no idea that Shape FX carries bags. Thought they were strictly clothing.

This bag looks nice and big. The description does say it is roomy. I can’t find the price because it seems to be currently out of stock.

It’s interesting how you can usually tell the difference between high end designer bags and bags that aren’t high end designer bags” but who can afford high end designer bags?

This bag isn’t a high end designer bag by any means but it’s still a nice bag. I like how it looks with the red top and black leather pants the model is wearing. Quilted Messenger Bag by Shape fx®

Green shoes go with a yellow dress but what about yellow shoes with a green dress?

I’m not sure how I feel about wearing yellow shoes with a green dress. I’m not as positively struck by the contrast of green and yellow when it’s the dress that’s green and the shoes yellow as when it’s the shoes that are green and the dress yellow.

I guess the key with wearing yellow shoes with a green dress is matching the right shade of yellow with the right shade of green. The same is probably true for yellow dress green shoes combinations. You probably wouldn’t wear neon green shoes with a dress in an equally glaring shade of yellow.

Yellow shoes with a green dress can work but it doesn’t seem like it’s as easy to find the perfect blend between the two colors when the shoes are going to be yellow as when the shoes are going to be green.

I think yellow shoes are more difficult to wear well generally.

I continue to be amazed by how yellow and green complement each other. The shade of yellow in this dress and the shade of green in the shoes go beautifully together. I’d probably do a green belt that matches the green in the shoes but otherwise I think this outfit is gorgeous.

I can see this dress going very nicely with nude or tan shoes as well” and a belt in a color that matches the shoes.

I’ve seen some sets with blue shoes and I’m not sure I find that blue and yellow go as well together as green and yellow.
