DRESSED OR UNDRESSED? A FUN TIMES GUIDE TO SPRING07 DRESSES

Prada had them. Marc Jacobs did too. Then it trickled down to the retail world and ooh, look what we have here: H&M, le Chateau, Reitmans, Zara, Bedo, Simons all follow suit. Err-body is jumping on the dresses bandwagon! (Can I even use that as a term?). This Spring, I can GAR-RON-TEEEE that you will be bombarded and overwhelmed with dresses. Now whether you get “dressed” or “undressed” is really up to you. Here is a fun times guideline on what to look forward to, what to look out for and what to say “Seriously… no seriously?” to.

PART 1
POCKETS
We all love pockets right? Well at least I do. I have about a thousand purses (no really, and that’s not counting clutches, which by the way, is the new purse…confused yet?). In any case, you will begin, slowly but surely, to see dresses with pockets. By pockets, I mean slits on the side that you can barely even notice (think Jennifer Hudson at the Oscar's). According to the magazines (*Gasp* it is IMPERATIVE that we follow what the magazines say!!), you must walk around with your hands in the pockets of your dress. This will make you look ubercool and everyone will love you. I like this trend and am currently on a mission for a dress with pockets. H&M and Zara have a few. But if you hit up Jacob or Axara, they will probably look at you with a blank deer caught in headlights look. So don’t go there for a dress with pockets.
