Deep Cleansing Breaths

For some reason (perhaps the towering stack of work, the 150+ emails to deal with [not to read, to DEAL WITH, we're talking the dreaded "action items," people], the planning for yet another week of travel) I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed today. So I'm just going to look at this Marc Jacobs silk shirtdress (with Peter Pan collar) and take deep cleansing breaths. I'm not going to think about how it's nearly my size (B34, so it'd be a leeetle tight), "only" $500 (for Marc Jacobs?), or about how I actually have a vintage pattern very similar to this one and could do it in better fabric if I had just four extra hours today. Nope. I'm just going to look at it (I wish the pictures were better, click on this one to visit the designerexposure.com site and see other views) and take deep breaths.

I suggest you do the same ...

bout how I actually have a vintage pattern very similar to this one and could do it in better fabric if I had just four extra hours today. Can you actually sew a dress in 4 hours? I'm impressed. I couldn't manage it in 40. Very cute dress, but it reminds me a little of vintage DVF, and I'd rather have the vintage DVF...

yep! Four hours is not so much. Sometimes I can do it in two if I don't care what it looks like on the inside ...
