WEATHER REPORT...
...29 degrees this morning! I could hardly believe it - but winter does start this weekend after all. I love dressing for Fall/Winter, but do so I hate going out to warm up the car. I wanted to make sure I'd be toasty all day long so I test drove my Missoni-esque knit midi dress made earlier from McCall's 6612.
I love that I underlined the body of the dress, as it made wearing it without a slip possible. Just when I developed such a dislike of slips I cannot remember, but whenever I can go without one, I do. The dress has a HUGE cowl that could easily be worn as a hood, but it's comfortable and controllable.
