So last week i had a thing for yellow, which is very unlike me. Being a natural redhead and i will admit a child in the 70's my mother dressed me in nothing but green, brown and yellow. But, you know i was experimenting with color, woke up thinking about yellow (yes this really does happen to me, and yes, i know it sounds wierd...) went off to work and was met by a fellow library person wearing a bright sunshine yellow t-shirt. It was so exactly the shade of yellow that i'd wanted that i was entranced. This was later in the week so i went off on Saturday to look for yellow dress, which i could picture and clearly had to have......
Except that after a few hours of searching i couldn't find anything like what i actually wanted!!!!
Luckily for me i live with a man who is not only handsome & debonair, but also quiet pragmatic and inventive. He said to me at about 4pm, "my love mabye you should buy a white dress and dye it yellow" Did i mention i love this man? He clearly knew he wasn't getting any peace till i had my dress.
So we went searching and found a perfect white lace shift dress, and some yellow dye. Sunshine yellow, i might add. A few hours later i had the perfect sunshine yellow dress i had pictured to the amazment of friends :) Imagine my joy.....Will post pics soon
Special thanks for this go not only to Mr puppy on the radio, but also to my lovely friend hannah belle who put up with us on this trip and whose help was also invaluble *hugs babe*
