The dress I never had

The dress I most regret never buying.



I know I'm not shaped like Lily Allen. Cole. Whatever! But it looked so sweet on me and the fabric was gorgeous and stiff, so one felt completely armoured. It gave me that exact feeling of pleasure I got when I was a little girl and wearing my favourite clothes. Blue dungarees and red sweater, blue corduroy pinafore with green and blue ribbons, how I miss thee.

The only size was 14, which was too tight then, but wouldn't be too tight now. It was in the sale too. Sometimes I still trawl eBay for this garment...

I most regret never buying one of those gorgeous Napoleonic-war style jackets when they were in fashion. You know, the ones in velvet, with all the piping across the front and the buttons, like what Sharpe wears. *longing*

Oooh, I do remember. What a shame, I feel your pain, truly.
