Another reason to hate the depressing economic times we’re in… I have no where to wear a fancy schmancy dress like this Handkerchief Gown from Jenni Kayne. Nor should I even pretend I could afford it btw… The cut is flattering with just the right touch of flirtiness to offset the gun metal greys of this floor length dress. The daintiness of the chiffon also strikes an interesting and unexpected balance to the dramatically gaunt colors. Perhaps I love this dress even more because it reminds me of an old dress I once had.. a beautiful rich pink chiffon dress (if I remember correctly it was from Laundry). But this Kayne dress has an interesting, more updated detailing to the waist. Damn this economy!
