Here is a little inside tip next time you hit a thrift store don’t assumethat the clothing is arranged in their proper places….. Here is what Iam talking about , when I found this gorgeous Robert Grahamshirt I initially thought it was a woman’s blouse because I wasactually in the women’s section of the thrift store. I picked it upbecause I of course recognized the label and I thought the pattern andfabric was beautiful. Then I noticed that the buttons were on the rightside of the shirt so this technically makes this not a blouse butinstead a shirt. I know that sounds so anal and believe me I am notinto buttons on the left side make a women’s blouse and buttons on theright side make a man’s shirt blah blah blah….. All that sounds soboring to me and who really gives a crap which side of the aisle thebuttons are on…left ….right….I believe that if a shirt or blouseis FAB then buy it, wear it and enjoy it. Getting all that out of theway I found this beautiful Robert Graham SHIRT that has the mostgorgeous inside fabric around the collar and cuffs.. The inside fabricdesign is like a Georges Seuratpainting. The style of artwork Seurat is widely known for is called‘pointillism’ which is a technique of painting in which small dots ofpure color are applied in patterns to form an image. I then found thisnavy long stretch skirt by Alain Manoukianthat looks like it was meant to be worn with the Robert Graham SHIRT.Alain Manoukian is a leading French designer, distributor and retailerof ready to wear fashions, with an emphasis on knitwear. A woman couldwear this Robert Graham mens SHIRT with this Alain Manoukian long navyskirt and feel totally at ease. I mean woman have always worn mensclothing and they look FAB in it, it’s acceptable for women to wear mensclothing but not the other way around…hummmm food for thought….
