Two for the Road

Begin with a classic "winter" white crepe coat dress, a must for south bound wardrobes, and accessorize for maximum mileage.

Actress Gene Marshall shows two more ways to accessorize the versatile coat dress from "White Hyacinth".  First....a touch of pink lends this spring confection a soft yet sophisticated look.  Details include detachable bows that give the illusion of dramatic pockets.  A striking black suede hat completes the ensemble.  Hat, bows, and corsage are from The Couture Touch.  Gloves and jewels are from Ashton Drake.  Hat box is from Robert Tonner.

A fabulous straw tilt anchored with black jersey and a colorful chiffon print sash; add drama to this ultra-chic ensemble.  Hat, handbag, and brooch are from The Couture Touch.  Gloves are from Ashton Drake.  Earrings are from D.A.E. Originals.  Sash is from an OOAK Barbie outfit (designer unknown).  TIP:  An easy way to refresh the look of a ready-made garment is to change the buttons.
