If you know me, or at least knew me twenty years ago, I was the one in black. All black. But maybe it's a sign of getting older, or wanting to try something new, that I have turned into a lover of pattens. Not only do I love textiles, but it's snuck into the way I dress. The more color, the better. I also love dresses. Now as I look at a recent photo of my daughter, it's obvious that it's transferred over to what I buy her. Although at four, she is now capable of picking out her own clothes. This one was all her idea. I just hope she doesn't start dressing like a little Kimora Lee Simmons. I was hoping more for a Kate Spade kind of dresser. Vintage and skirts. Maybe in forty years we'll find out.
