eg did very well by you! Wouldn’t have commented, but HAD to note that the color of the T-shirt appears to be rather close to The Dress from the previous post. Happy Red-heading! It’s going to look smashing on you. Wide-legged pants, or a loose, assymetrical hem wrap skirt for that fabric? I will be over to share that butterscotch pud with you!

I think that may be the fastest box ever. Just over 6 weeks. And it looks as though it is all there. Yay! I completely forgot about the pastry mat. Doesn’t it look neat?

Cool, everything is cool to 0°. The box wasn’t opened and the courier suggested I read books in Italian. Smartass.

The Tee is much brighter than the dress, really. I can do both if I want, because there’s a lot of 60″ wide fabric. But pants are hot here in summer, although spring and early fall? Not wrap, though. Tailored and long is better for me. Navy sandals?

Do share with us the authors / names of those books. And how were they shipped. I sent books to relative on active duty and there were all kinds of restrictions. Post office said books only, no mixing box content. I did however stick a jar of blueberry jam to fill a crack.
Yes on navy sadals, depending on what size you wear.

Eh, the fabric looks black but is really ink navy.

I haven’t even absorbed all the titles! Cleverboots eg buys me books at library sales. She hasn’t yet used M bags, but my friends all do. There are restrictions on what you can send to Italy, but because eg’s last name matches mine, her boxes haven’t been opened. I have been partially robbed from other boxes sent by friends!

I think APO/FPO shipments are different.

Size is 6 1/2 B or Italian 36. Small but elegant, I say.
