and it looks great on you too....

I heard a horror incident this morning! I know there are people starving in the world and disease and a lot more besides, however, getting dressed and ready for THE social event only to find another guest wearing the same dress as you once you get there features very very high on the list of Urban Social Disasters.

I will not name names but the story was relayed to me by one of the 'victims'; once she walked up to the red carpet and into the venue, she turned for that "identification" glance, a quick once-over of guests, which she helped invite. And there she saw the Other! And this was not one a little black dress, this was an ornate affair of silk and organza with embroidery and a stand-out belt to match! Everyone must have noticed.. no matter how one chooses to accessorize a dress like that, it can be spotted a mile away.

So what to do on a situation like that? drape a pashmina over your shoulders? leave? dispose of your adversary? what do you suggest? Well in this particular situation they both stayed and waited for the night to end...
