13.12.09: Navy smock dress

I discovered recently that one of the Oxfams in Edinburgh has got new stuff from (fair trade clothing company) People Tree at completely reasonable prices! A dangerous discovery for what little space remains in my wardrobe!

I got seduced into thinking that I could pull off a smock dress (how lovely is it? look at the emboidery!), but really my shape demands a defined waist. I think I will be wearing this belted in the future despite the emroidery. Dave had the idea of attaching some ties (?) at the side, so you can tie it together at the back. I may try that if I can find some decent material to make the ties with.
