What to wear? What to wear?



The suitcase is almost packed. The newspapers and mail have been put on hold. Cinderella came in today to do the cleaning and the palace is gleaming. So, what is the problem?

What to wear to the Wedding of the Season!!! That is the problem! Once upon a time 'black tie only' set the tone for the occasion. Does 'black top only' mean a t-shirt or a tuxedo shirt? Can a lady wear a 'little black cocktail dress' or a 'a black beach dress' or shorts and a t-shirt? There used to be rules to follow and now we are all adrift in a sea of fashion faux pas. The suitcase can only hold so many outfits!

Then there are the jewels. Each outfit has its own set of jewelry to complete the picture. This adds to the packing problem!!

Then there is the matter of the pocketbook. Today's lady of society needs the perfect bag to complement the outfit. The bag must hold all of the essentials (makeup, phone, camera, money, credit cards, tissues, gum, candy, Advil....the list goes on and on) and be attractive at the same time. A different pocketbook for each ensemble. How big does this suitcase need to be?

Decisions! Decisions!

ETA....the shoes! Don't forget the shoes! Each outfit has its own shoes!

Oh, Cinderelly, Cinderelly, where are your mice when I need them?
