> PS. If anyone else wants to take a look, go to
> www.eileenfisher.com... oh, god, i hate the fact that eileen fisher clothes are so expensive! the clothing is beautiful, though, so you COULD justify it by telling yourself (after the divorce, no one else to ever have to justify anything to... this is BIG!!) you'd hang onto it forever... and you would, too, the natural-fiber fabrics hold up over decades: i know this to be true -- i got a vest from my bro for x-mas one year, and then i found the matching skirt in the town where i live, so i bought that for myself. they are still hanging in the closet (a little big on me now, but that's ok!), fabric is a good as when they were new. then the styles: they are such clean lines, no frilly s__, no loud colors (all are muted and earth tones), no flowers, no zippers, etc. BUT i DID have to cut out some of the labels! -- yeah, i bought a couple more items, but the shop in my town sells the clothes when the eileen fisher stores and the retailers haven't moved them out on schedule, so they're "old" fashions, so to speak, but of course, still beautiful clothes.
drool, drool,
gracie, you're a treat to read,
i know things suck right now, but
life will be good again,
i promise,
