I get this catalog in the mail! And I have no idea why, because I have never and will never dress like this. Nothing against this style, but it's definitely not mine. I don't know how I got on their mailing list.
I am several hours late to the party, because of my time difference, but I couldn't NOT chime in, because I rock the caftan (or muumuu, more commonly found on Guam) quite often, as it is quite breezy and comfortable in tropical climates. Combine it with wrapping your hair in a scarf in a kind of tiny turban and you feel utterly fabulous, in a dowdy sort of way. I'm hoping to start a trend.
(That, and curly, coarse hair is a bitch in humid weather, so it keeps it under control.)
@Cafezinha: Note: not to imply that a muumuu and caftan are one and the same, but the general idea of one-piece wild and free loveliness is still there. :)
@Uncommon Whore: seriously. i should rock that bad johnny to the law school library as payback for all the snifflers/gum smackers/loud flip flop wearers. visual distraction much?
@Uncommon Whore: dresses FTW. agreed. what's your opinion on jumpsuits? a friend was just trying to tell me she found an acceptable one at bestey johnson and i dont buy it
@Dakota_55: I may be biased because, due to my height, I would never find a jumpsuit with a chance of fitting me, but I say "aw hell no" to the jumpsuit idea.
I have to say, Today in Catalogs was what originally brought me to Jezebel, and I've never looked back. It is and likely always will be my favorite feature.
Who say's it has to be granny going grey? I tried for months to die my hair that color but alas...just looked like bleach blonde with a blueish tint. My dreams of being Mad Madamme Mimm live on.
