little dress like it goes day to evening, the little party dress.

just put it with flip flops and more in the winter, stick with the easy
dress but combine it with tights and ballet flats and good coats.

Question: Top shops?

Erin Fetherston: My favorite store in New York is —. It's really fantastic boutique
and they have lots of designers including Erin Fetherston. And
