Shelby....The Vista

With rain looming in the distance, it turned out to be a lovely, oddly cool evening for an outdoor party. I admired the way this vibrant woman stood out in the crowd, so of course I could not ignore her. Shelby was a delight. Where did she find the dress, I asked. She had ordered it, she told me, from Boston Proper...and insisted I confirm her claim by examining the tag inside her garment. (I felt wildly improper doing so and reader, I did not mind that sensation at all!)

And those marvelous platform shoes, I somehow still had the presence of mind to ask.

"Can you believe it?" she said, "They're Coach!"
