Giving Good Dress

BOO HOO! I have really loved this steamy weather casual dress, but now that it has gone past its expiry date and I am forcing myself to be ruthless by getting rid of it. But before I cast it aside, I must give it a proper goodbye.

I liked everything about it: the jersey fabric, the chevron pattern and the colours, the spaghetti straps and overall ease of wear. It was just so light and comfortable on really hot days. But it has become disgracefully pilled in patches and is not fit for public consumption so I must regretfully bid it farewell.

I think it is not even good enough to go to a charity store, so perhaps I should cut it up for rags? What a prospect, and what a tragic end to a favourite summer frock! Goodbye chevron dress, you served me well.
