I was fortunate enough to wear dozens of those vintage treasures at Western Costume back in the days when I was acting. The job was the playing the old fashioned girl who got caught smoking in those Virginia Slims ads. Gorgeous gowns!

I'm so tired of clorhes that look like something you can find in any mall. These looks will inspire a truly unique wardrobe!

In Denver last summer, at the Democratic National Convention, rather than the traditional red, white, and blue ensembles, everyone seemed to be wearing black and white prints. Inspired, no doubt, by the dress Michelle Obama wore on "The View."

Don't believe me? Check out the slide show. The last picture is a dress I made from my own pattern...modeled on the Michelle Obama dress.
