I always thought the best part of being a guy was those hidden inner pockets in jackets. LOL. The way I feel about houses is that I like to look out windows. So sometimes I think clothing is just an elaborate arrangement of pockets. The ones where the Japanese started putting bags on the outside or how the bags hang down off of Daisy Dukes. <br /><br /> I think the more subtle topstitching is just right - makes the focus the seaming rather than the dotted line contrast. When something has lots of high contrast seams, you start to think the whole point of the construction is to get as many outlines in there as possible and this way, it's like Donald Brooks, you start wondering what wonderful hidden adjustments are hidden in the seams. ;)<br /><br />I like the slouchiness of the skirt. I had been rethinking my straight skirts and found that the ones I like best have the possibility of a little undulation. This idea came out of applying your outfit evaluating system - which I continue to use to great profit.Vildynoreply@blogger.com
