But I live in the country with rattlesnakes. I think the last time I wore a dress was about 5 yrs ago for a wedding.

I live outside a small town of about 900 residents. I can’t remember the last time I saw anyone in town in a dress. Skirts occasionally.

Even my daughter and granddaughter- neither one has worn a dress since grade school.

I think the egg plant dress is cool to wear if you are a narcissist at a Hollywood event.

I graduated from Parsons School of Design in graphic design but many of my friends were in the fashion design dept where anything goes. Kamala’s step daughter, Ella Emhoff, went to Parsons and I like the quirky way she dresses.
