Another is sleeveless. Perhaps I shouldn't pine for such a thing, but I do on occasion. It's enough to make me want to design my own clothes. I have considered it time and time again- during pregnancy especially when all the clothes seem so dowdy and uncomfortable! Why can't modest clothes be made out of sumptuously colored fabrics like these?
Yet another thing is cream. A little cream is okay, but head to toe cream would never do on my skin. It'd be like trying to see a polar bear in a snow storm. *sigh*
I was raised very simply and my mother was always beautifully, but simply and classically dressed. She never accessorized with scarves or flashy shoes and earrings, so it's as foreign to me as Kate Moss to an all-you-can-eat. However, I still feel drawn to these items even though I'm sure I would feel conspicuous in them. ...But perhaps that's the point- to stand out a little.
Thus ends my covet-fest. Perhaps I should stop browsing ModCloth so often, but it's so hard to refrain when they post new items every few hours or so...

Too bad we usually want what we can't have.
Oh, you must get your class from your mother. You said she is classy and that is EXACTLY what I think of when I picture you. Whenever I see you FB profile pic I have to smile because you are so beautiful and confident in that pic- as always of course. I won't even gert started on what I want but I just steer away from browsing online because I know I would fall into a trap or two!
I'm right there with you on the high heels! And those you have posted are so darling!
I can actually wear 4 inchers, but it makes me so tall that I get nose bleeds.
In high school I used to have to wear ballet slippers to all the dances or else my date's nose would be in ...um... ungraceful places. :(
I'm sure I would dress differently if I had more money, that's why Goodwill and I are such good friends.
Oooh, I do love that tulle dress...
Those are all so cute! You do have to have dinero though :)
The cream dress is so pretty. I bet it would look cute with your dark hair.
