Ruth C said... Lovely dress and good review. I like your drying method! 1/7/07 9:01 PM
Sewshot said... Great outfit, and well done. I must say that you don't remotely look like you're in your 50's - I remember being there once! - and the style doesn't look too young for you. The jacket is especially nice, and it sounds like you've got a great wardrobe there with those 4 pieces. 1/7/07 9:58 PM
onewhosows said... Thanks, Sewshot! I'm just recovering from a monster cold and FEEL even older this week. Great end to my vacation! 1/7/07 10:29 PM

AnneM said... Very nice dress & jacket. Congrats. 1/8/07 8:30 AM
carolynw said... It's early Monday AM and I am just having my coffee - want to make sure I am not half asleep - you are 50 something??
This looks so lovely on you forget about it being too young for you - in this case I would say age is very definitely just a number!! Great work on the jacket too. 1/8/07 9:27 AM
MelissaB in WA said... Very well done first review! I agree with the others, you look fantastic at 53! My mom has good genes too (she's 52) and I hope they are passed on to me! ;-) Love your dress and jacket, it looks nice on you. 1/8/07 2:11 PM
LBJ said... Very nice! I'd love to see the jacket with the pants! 1/8/07 4:32 PM
Hilary said... I love the jacket- you did a beautiful job on it! I think the whole outfit flatters you-not to young. You made the pants too? I'd love to see those too :o) Oh and I think a ribbon trim would be pretty on the top, but maybe leave off the bow? 1/9/07 9:29 AM
Jane S said... Wow, you look fabulous in this outfit. Great review and wonderful dress and jacket. Thanks for encouraging me to try something more than scarves from the silk chiffons in my stash. 1/9/07 1:36 PM
onewhosows said... I'll hem the pants and get a photo in here soon. Thank you all for the reassurance. (You''ll LOVE the zipper view!) 1/9/07 5:01 PM

Ann Smith said... Very pretty outfit that looks great on you. I especially love the jacket. 1/20/07 4:27 PM
Re Becca said... HA, I don't understand the back zipper thing either, my arms go to the front, why would I put closures in the back. BUT, it does make many alterations easier. You did a great job! 1/20/07 5:32 PM
