GraceD
September 11, 2007
I went for this knock-kneed pose not because I needed to pee, but rather to capture the head-to-toe-ness of this Classic Grace Davis ensemble. "Classic Grace Davis" because it's comprised of three critical pieces I've had in my wardrobe for many a decade.
Top - Authentic French sailor sweater. Thick cotton knit. Navy stripes on a creamy white. Long sleeves, but roomy enough to fold up and the fabric is woven stiff enough to stay folded. Layer this baby or don't layer. I've had this top for 9 years. I lost my previous French sailor top somewhere between husbands. Alas, I had that beauty for 15 years (the sweater, not the husband. Husband I had for 10 years.)
Jeans - Of course. We all have jeans. Well, maybe not the Dalai Lama or the Queen, but most of us own at least one pair.
Clogs - Have worn clogs since 1971. I realize most of you were not even alive in 1971, but there you go, the lasting power of the clog. These are the Dansko 'Professional' model in a whimsical red.
My retro reading glasses from Longs Drugs. Cheap chic!
I finally switched earrings. These are from Mervyn's, on sale.
But, no Timex Ironman Watch. Quelle horreur!
