I like the first one, but the last one listed would be the best, in my own
opinion.
Right, no way can a person have too many party outfits.

Well I ordered three of them, so I'll evaluate their
compatibility with the palazzo pants and shoes when they get

I always throw my silks in the washing machine. If I feel really kind they
go in a gentle cycle but other than that they get treated like anything

dry cleaners!
Your new wardrobe sounds wonderful! Enjoy making it and wearing it.
