Made in Morocco dress, Goodwill
I've been wanting to show you this amazing cotton-rayon dress found at Goodwill for $6.99 a few months ago. The label is Soussan Designs Le Monde International and it was made in Morocco. It's so elegant; I just love it.
It's a heavy dress to wear. As you can see, it has an uber full skirt times two layers.
I'm wearing it with gold-tone BCBG sandals (thrifted for $4.99) and a Made in Canada necklace pendant by Raphael from the 1970s.
I can even flip the top layer over my shoulders and change the look of the dress - how cool is that?
The really amazing thing: there was a white one in the exact same style right beside it on the rack in Goodwill! So dear readers, I bought two gorg dresses for $6.99 each! Must be a bronzed babe when I wear the white one or else I'll look like a dead fish ... self-tanner here I come! (P.S. I love wearing pink these days, especially after reading it makes you look younger -- in the pink, you know??).

I adore that dress on you. I'd have bought that beauty in a heartbeat. I could just imagine lounging around the terrace of a posh hotel in Mustique in the 1970's dressing in that sipping a cocktail. x
