The dress arrived!! Yahoo… and just in the nick of time!  I am so excited to get started with this challenge!!

For those of you who haven’t heard…I have been invited to do a 100-Day Challenge, put on by Wool&  — and I am starting on 1/20/21.  i hope…

Today’s goal:

  • become familiar with the dress… and experiment with “dressing” it up and down!!

What’s in store for today:

I have a lot of stuff going on today…. and I wanted to try on a few looks… so here they are:

the dress

Did a quick weather check.  Paired the dress with a down plaid pink Land’s End vest.

Really… just wanted to show you what the dress looked like!

Shoes are  Sperry Topsiders and  I picked up some Secret Treasures 80 denier super opaque tights.  I think I am going to order some of their leggings (under $6!)

Getting ready for the inauguration. A pretty exciting time in history… and I live-streamed it on my laptop.   Thought I would pair the dress with a soft wrap….

 Did you catch Lady Gaga singing the National Anthem?

This for the rest of the day: drumming class, getting a trailer hitch installed, and going grocery shopping with my daughter, Number 1. (You can catch her in action in the post about purging…. where she weighed in on my wardrobe — go HERE!)

I am wearing a cropped courdory Levi Jacket and a scarf that I knit … and dyed the wool… a few years back.

This will be super comfortable.

That’s about it for the dress.  But I do have some other dress related things to share!

Found them at Goodwill.

Day 5, and I was a bit worried about wearing it belted. I just didn't want to look like a gray potato sack trussed up in the middle. I think sometimes we get caught up with notions like this because of something we heard as a child or young person.  Such as  don't...

Day 3 for the dress and dogs.  yes... I have two of them.  At first I was concerned that i would be covered with dog hair... I ordered the steel gray #Rowena.  But I must say that it hasn't been a problem.  Woolamina is the name I chose for my dress Woolamina Merino,...
