Coral-colored (but not a reef)

This is so cute … Robin sent it to me. It’s a lot of likely hand-crafted (no tags, and I think I’ve seen this pattern before), B39/W33, in great shape, and on eBay hovering at a bid of about $16 ideal now — what a deal! click on the image to visit the auction.

I love the buttons, the diagonal line, the little notch at the neckline where the bodice overlaps: all adorable, but not too sweet. The wild pattern is another plus. You’d absolutely need a choker of coral beads with this one, too, but only the genuinely dedicated (or nuts) would try to match the shoes and bag …

Thanks, Robin!
