I'm sure you can save it, so I'll look forward to hearing about that soon.Debbie Cookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03601675304884019607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-77331982944657236852009-07-11T16:28:36.965-04:002009-07-11T16:28:36.965-04:00You have been totally working the yellow, and I li...You have been totally working the yellow, and I like it. I think everyone should put some color in their lives, they might be a little more happier and up beat if they did. I also think Mrs. Obama feels the same way. She is a breath of fresh air that I think we all needed.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17846280039463458710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-85110156261281813332009-07-11T13:49:09.145-04:002009-07-11T13:49:09.145-04:00Ha!

People ask me if I feel ok and if they can buy me lunch when I wear yellow. Oh well, more for you.<br />Sorry about the skirt, I think it will look very nice as a pencil style and maybe not wrinkle as bad. <br />The buttons will go on the front yoke of the skirt (its a false opening, complete with unopened buttonholes) and the pockets if I do them. I've cut them, but may not put them on. We'll see. And I'm stealing your piping idea - blatently and out there - for the front of the skirt.BeeBeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01801842490035341712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-46098989119754599822009-07-11T13:34:53.761-04:002009-07-11T13:34:53.761-04:00Love the complete clothier site, thankd for sharin...Love the complete clothier site, thankd for sharing.Faye Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02781186043996633965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-8556161634646548302009-07-11T09:36:03.084-04:002009-07-11T09:36:03.084-04:00Carolyn,it's too bad about the skirt.I thought...Carolyn,it's too bad about the skirt.I thought the stripes made it so unique.<br />I'm so with you on wearing colours and feeling like I stick out like a sore thumb because I choose to wear skirts and dresses instead of pants and capris all the time.<br />About yellow. I went to a funeral this week and even in the small town I come from, there was yellow everywhere. I saw purses, shoes,jewellery, tops, scarves,a yellow print dress(that was on me),etc. I was quite impressed to see so many women wishing to be in style!<br />Unlike you,even after obsessing about having too much fabric, I brought five pieces home last night.My store is having a buy one get two free sale.But none of it was for me.Hooray!Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12500041147303339117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-15377300143278820132009-07-11T09:00:26.079-04:002009-07-11T09:00:26.079-04:00I agree that Michelle Obama must be reading your b...I agree that Michelle Obama must be reading your blog. Both of you look great in your yellow dresses and definitely are trend setters. That's sad news about the gorgeous striped skirt - bet you can fix it!
