End of the Day Wrinkles


So I wore the new outfit. Like that's any big surprise. By the end of the day, the skirt had stretched and bagged out somewhat and is full of sitting wrinkles. Oh well, I still like it. The "ruby slippers" passed the test and were pleasant to wear all day. I loved looking down and seeing them. Funny how they kind of look like flats in this pic, even though they have 3-1/2" heels.

There won't be any sewing tonight, as I'm out the door in a few minutes to run some errands and then I plan on vegging and hitting the pillows earlier than 1 AM.

I wish I had something more profound to share, but this is all I've got. Oh, I did find out today that I'm included in an all-day training session at the "mother ship" (the firm's main location on the other side of Tampa) on November 22nd. That's a good sign. Right?? I'm looking forward to seeing more of that office. I've only been in the lobby and one conference room during my very first interview back in August (Was it August or early-September? I don't remember.).

Have a good evening!

  4. I have to admit when I read "End of the day wrinkles" I had something very different in mind! My first thought was, oh I get those too....must be gravity. Ha.

    Your closet is amazing! I can't believe how many things you can finish in one day. Glad to hear the red shoes performed well, it's hard to know until you walk a few miles in them.

  10. Love the shoes :)
    I've found that underlining + using bemberg for a lining helps with reducing skirt wrinkles from sitting at a desk. That can make a skirt much warmer, though, so it might not work well in FL!

Thank you for each and every comment. I appreciate them all, but I have to be honest and let you know that I'm usually bad about answering questions. I hope you understand that there just isn't enough time in the day to do everything I want to do.
