Anyone who knows me, knows that dressing up is not one of my pastimes. I have a set of H&M v-neck shirts, cardigans and jeans that lasts me a couple of years, and then gets replaced by the next set. I don't often pay attention to what other people are wearing, am completely ignorant of fads and fashion, and probably find women's magazines rather boring for one reason: they are full of clothing.
This doesn't mean that I don't find some clothes beautiful. Clothes can be like art. But for some reason, I see a point in investing in a painting, but not in a jacket or dress.
In Berlin-Mitte, where we live, we are surrounded by small boutiques. I have never been inside any of them, but enjoy walking past. Two in particular make me wish I could get married again - and make me hope that my daughters may one day - although someone else could foot the bill for these dresses.
Ha Duong is a Vietnamese designer, who makes the most beautiful silk, "draped" dresses.

And Kaviar Gauche, right opposite our flat, is just very cool (in particular their bridal collections).

I just wanted to put those two links out there, just in case...a couple of my friends still need to get married, if not for any other reason, for the party's and dresses sake!
