    Janice, you've invaded my dreams! Last night I dreamed about someone who'd based her entire wardrobe around 5 grey dresses. She wore one every day. :P

      If I were starting from scratch, I'm not sure I wouldn't just get about 10 black dresses and call it quits. It would be quite liberating; it's not like I do anything anymore that REQUIRES pants…

      But pants erase the need for serious thinking about pantyhose, the height of shoe heels…

      Janice – did you ever read about any of the experiments in wearing one black dress for an entire year? It did sound so liberating!!! Here's one example: http://onedressprotest.com

    Janice, I daydream of having a Viv Files meetup with you and/or Vivienne in Chicago or Paris. I would plan a trip to either city around such an event. Perhaps we can bring photos of our wardrobes (or at least the pesky items we know not what to do with even though the offer promise as connector pieces)? You can help us lost souls in person. I'd pay for the pleasure! Or maybe just a cafe chat with like-minded women. Think about it, you have a whole fan base here.

    I am a big fan of the color brown. I think it looks so classy and is a great neutral color.
