Date: 6/28/09 2:49 PM I would look like a Chaps model--very Martha's Vineyard old-moneyish look,
simple but classic styles, little jewelry,
long flowing hair, and of course be 30 years younger! Next page>> |

Date: 6/28/09 4:16 PM That's easy LOL! Every day of the week I'd like to dress like Erica B and Kim Brown . I'm working on it... ------ Big 4 Pattern size 12, RTW bottom: 6, RTW jacket 8, RTW top (no size fits me well!)
Measurements: 34 HB/36 FB (34C bra)/27.5/36 (and working hard to keep it that way.)
Machines: Sewing (Janome Memory Craft 3000), Serger (Pfaff Hobbylock 786), Embroidery (Janome 300E)
Pearls of Wisdom that I'm forever repeating to my kids:
- You wouldn't care what people think of you, when you realize how little they do.
- Look where you're going, not where you've been.

Date: 6/28/09 5:21 PM I would be in a more practical version of Victorian goth. Skirts with pockets, loose blouses, dark colors, patchwork fabrics, lace and trimmings, a chain-mail chatelain. I've had it pictured it my head for years, but I can't buy any of it and haven't had time to make most of it. Mostly I want to get away from jeans (with all those handy pockets) and t-shirts (so often free!). ------ Elayne

Date: 6/28/09 6:21 PM Can't resist answering this one. I wish I could dress like either Hepburn: Katherine or Audrey - total class. It helps if your as thin as they were, which I'm not. As long as we're dreaming, I also want to look like Maureen O'Hara. Next page>> |

Reply to PopoAgie Date: 6/28/09 7:57 PM Does this mean we could weigh less too? If so, something like Jayne Semour or Olga in "Ladies in Lavender"--long, loose and flowy silk coats and dresses, sometimes with klunky shoes. ------ "Well-behaved women seldom make history"--Laurel Thatcher Ulrich

What an extraordinarily beautiful woman she was. In my life, I have personally known just one woman so beautiful that I could not help gawking at her now and then even though she was a buddy. And even she was not so extraordinary as O'Hara. Next page>> |
