It’s that time of year where “they” give us permission to wear white until labor Day, and if you wear white any other time, people will look at you sideways. There are people out there that insist on embracing the antiquated notion that you can only wear white at certain times of the year. It’s been a long time since I sought permission to wear anything, and if my super-strict, super-religious mother couldn’t make me wear what she wanted, complete strangers don’t have a prayer, credentials be damned. Get it? Religious, prayer, damned… Yes, I got jokes, and they’re clean jokes. I don’t need my mother cursing me. See, did it again…
Anyway… I have always thought that was a stupid fashion rule because, it’s a stupid fashion rule. Wear whatever, whenever. I came across this article on Lucky magazine’s site, and I couldn’t help but go through the gallery. This dress, #18, “Tamga” by Kimberly Ovitz, is what got me to re-blog (I don’t re-blog often) this article. Go to Shopbop if for no other reason just to see the dress in action. It’s worth it. If this was available in black I would squeal and hyperventilate, in that order. I really like Kimberly Ovitz. Her clothing is easy, flowing, unique, and she isn’t afraid of asymmetrical hemlines or layers. Very cool…
Here are a few more looks from the gallery:
