Fanfare for the red skirt!
A wool red skirt with its bold and showy outward attitude has almost entirely disappeared from our stores and streets. Now it can be found only in grandma attics or thrift shops.
Before the holidays I tried to find a nice classic wool red skirt. I searched in large department stores and small boutiques with no result. There were plenty of red tops and of course, dresses, but no skirts.
Why red skirt vs. red top? Red makes every woman pretty, and adds a little glamour to her appearance. However, very few women look good in a lot of red right next to the face. With the red skirt, however there is no danger of this.
After two-moths of searching I found one at Ann Taylor in its clearance section for $29.99. It was there along with a few more of the most unwanted pieces. I imagined a sign on it:
'Warm, pretty, will make a devoted companion to an elegant woman. Suggested donations $29.00"
I adopted it. I love it.
