What a lucky girl!

There comes a time in every girl’s life when her favorite $7.00 skirt from Ross falls into disrepair, destined to become gossamer dust cloths.

The sequins fade.









The lining rips.









And riiiiiippps.




Then there’s nothing left of the skirt you loved, perhaps too robustly. And you wonder what you will wear this time next year when a floaty, slightly 50s-inspired summer skirt would be the perfect garment.

And you keep wondering... Until you find a never-worn version of the EXACT SAME SKIRT for .50 cents at the local Catholic church rummage sale!

Nice work! Now you'll have to sneak out of the Embassy, team up with Gregory Peck and bash about Rome.
