More success with the dress

Yesterday was the LA Conservancy event, Restoring Wilshire Blvd Temple.  Wilshire Blvd TempleThis is why I rushed to finish the dress, I volunteered for the event and what better place to debut this dress? Since it was a little chilly, I put on the dress, a cute little black cardigan, a matching black hat with white polka dots and of course, my LA conservancy badge.Showing off the dressHere Is Annie Laskey,  program manager, showing off my dress. She later got the official photographer to get some pictures, I hope to get some of those as well.

It was so much fun, having people come up and ooh and aah over the dress. I gave my camera to my almost SIL  Yochanan (one more month and it’s official) to get some pictures of me.being a docentDoing my job, talking about the Siegel courtyard.in Front of Wilshire Blvd. Temple modelExplaining future growth plans.IMG_3525Ok, so you can hardly see the dress here, but I really like this picture of me.

Today I was downtown and I wore the dress, strangers on the street commented that they like the dress. The salespeople at Michael Levine (yes, I had to go in there) were suitably impressed. I met a delightful young man from Berlin, he took my picture, although I never gave him any contact info, so I will probably never see it.

All in all, I have been having so much fun with this dress, and it’s only been two days.
