And it's no longer available at stores for purchase.  As it's completely sold out because a flood of women, like me who fell in love with this practical little black dress, purchased it not-on-sale for the price of $68 (or $86, I suddenly go dyslexic when remembering prices - honestly) and I would link to it, but it's sold out.  It never went on sale!

I've worn the dress in different company six times in the last month.  I'm not ashamed of the fact; in fact, I'm quite proud of stimulating the economy and being "green" by re-using it.  It has been my go-to-dress this month and every time I go anywhere I get major compliments twice over.  "Super adorable dress!!!"  That's like $11.33 per wear and I plan on wearing it to church this Sunday.  Woot.

Date night tonight with the super-sexy-husband-of-nearly-ten-years....

Day time writing conference, last week...

Minus the heels and lipstick of a date night, with an Ann Taylor cardigan thrown over the dress wearing super comfy green YOU flats.

I wore the dress last night to my neighborhood GNO (I know! Two nights in a row, is so declasse!!!!  But it was washed and the GNO women weren't at the writer's workshop or the benefit we attended tonight. So the dress was safe. Right?)  I also wore it to kindergarten lunch duty in flats and a park play-date in flip-flops.  Thank goodness no one was at my sister's bridal shower in Chicago when I first wore the dress.

That's six times in one month, I wore the dress. SIX TIMES!

Note to super-sexy-husband-of-nearly-ten-years:  the watch I've been encouraging you to purchase for me for Mother's Day would be worn everyday.  That's less then a dollar per wear and it would stimulate the economy.  It's a good thing you married someone so practical and patriotic.

(ADDED: found dress at the second JCrew I visited. They are marked down to $29.99 - not available online)
