My trip to my daughter's commencement started with a free day in NYC, so of course I went to see the Rei Kawakubo exhibit. It is amazing! I can't conceive how it is possible to create such fantastical, sculptural items out of FABRIC!
I tend to rely on tried-and-true outfits for travel, so the only one shown here is the one you haven't already seen - the dress I wore to the actual commencement. It's navy, despite looking black in the picture. This dress was so comfortable and easy to wear that I am thinking about duplicating it in another color. Bright red and burgundy are still available. Red is outside my usual comfort zone, but I do already have two burgundy dresses, so I may give the red a try.
The graduate wore her prize ribbon sundress - what could be more appropriate for the occasion?
Bonus shot of the unannounced surprise (!) speaker at the ceremony - Rep. John Lewis! - which photo serendipitously also includes the back of DD's head!
