This Jessica McClintock gown easily makes it to near the top of my list of best thrift store finds ($6.50)! It feels so incredibly delightful to wear ... like re-living the very first time I put on panties, bra, a slip, pantyhose, heels, and a formal dress as a young teen and saw myself in the mirror. Words cannot express how wonderfully feminine it makes me feel!

I had to drive around 3 hours away last weekend for a gathering of old friends, which was a wonderful time. On my way home, I took the wrong route off the freeway when I needed to stop for gas, and wound up several miles out of my way. In Vallejo, I stopped at an ATM and noticed a Goodwill just across the street, so I just had to get in some shopping, and came out with this dress and another (even better! photo forthcoming) one for $7 each, which is considerably less than the $11 dresses usually go for at their Bay Area stores.

I received a request to model a strapless top with these shorts, so here it is! I always enjoy receiving requests for outfits to try out. I can't promise I'll get to all of them, but I'll try anything reasonable.
