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.
I discovered 4 beautiful, bedazzled, jewel colored caftans from the 70's in my mother's old things. I think they belonged to my grandmother. They are glorious and I am going to wear one for Thanksgiving meal since I am cooking all day. I don't care if my father in law gives me shit!
I randomly got an Ashro catalog last month (who knows, this one may be in the mailbox) and the theme was "Caftans: The Perfect Ensemble for Your Next Dinner Party." And it's totally true. Caftans are the perfect ensembles for my dinner parties, which inevitably involve Some Sort of Takeout and Neal Caffery from White Collar in one of his pretty, pretty suits.
@sableized (just like starting over): Really, I think we just need more opportunities to wear church hats. I'm not technically what one would consider "Christian" or even "church going" but I lust after church hat opportunities.
@Zombie Ms. Skittles: Is it appropriate to wear the hat in #2 with a caftan? because I need that hat. You can wear it for church or holidays AND to a derby party. win win win
I am so psyched you included the wig section. I spent the entire first part of this gallery going, "YES I WILL CHECK OUT YOUR NEW LACE FRONT WIGS!!! PLEASE DIRECT ME TO THEM!"
What the hell I'm going to do with a lace front wig is anybody's guess, I just know that I NEED ONE RIGHT NOW.

YOU HAVE A CAFTAN!? That is one item that has eluded me on my many thrifting/vintage shopping expeditions.
Annnnd, the grey wig in no. 13 is like a neo-Florence Henderson 'do.
