red dress = standing in the corner


there was something about a red dress i had in kindergarten~i loved that dress even tho it itched and scratched to wear it~boy did it make me 'fresh' ~the same way a pair of pointy red shoes will today:)
the problem was when i wore that red dress to class i always ended up in the corner~ ALWAYS~ minus the pointy hat ~ i made this little doll with a porcelain torso and paper mache~she stands about 6 inches~

Tammy, I know just what you mean about gaining a little something extra from wearing specific clothes. When I was a girl, I had a pair of patent leather strap shoes, which always made me feel dainty and pretty. Every time I wore them, I walked on air.

She is great!
