That Certain Dress

There is said to be a line in "Flowers for Mrs Harris" by Paul Gallico, that reads..."A dress has the magical effect of making a woman look utterly feminine... but the spell is broken when she wears those two-legged things."

I thought about this today as I was tidying up my bedroom and reorganizing my closet. Moving a favorite dress from one spot to another, I took it out and laid it on the bed and thought about how that dress makes me feel when I wear it. It is more than just a dress, it is a moment, a feeling, an experience when I wear it. So unlike the slacks or even my skirts. All women need a dress like that in their closet. One that transforms, and gives you the ability to glide across any floor.

It is a joy to be a woman ~
