To buy a white dickey, dicky or false or detachable collar

Image
 In order to get a supplier for a white dickey, I typed in ebay and white dickey. Up came one at US S10.95, link below. From seller jsbay88. I know you can get them at half that price if you want to spend time searching. The cheaper ones might be thinner fabric, or they could be identical.  You might want to buy one from each supplier each, maybe both white, or one white and one black, or one with a pointy collar and one with a round collar, or have two identical styles so one can be washed and drying whilst the other is ready to wear next day. That way you compare the quality. Re-order from the more expensive supplier if it is a better product. Re-order from the other one if not. Or re-order from whoever supplies fastest if you are in a hurry.

How to create an attention getting neckline for your appearance on Zoom. Dress of the Day 206 Red and white Trio neckline  Cape Blazer White Bird label white cape blazer. Glossary Cape blazer  A cape blazer is a-jacket with cape effect and opening for the arm, no front sleeve. Can be buttoned across the front or loose like this one.  I have ordered some double clip fasteners. I hunted everywhere for clip fasteners a year ago and could not find them. So I sewed on pairs of ribbons to tie in a matching colour. In Feb 2021 whilst I was looking for fake collars and applique up popped links and ads for fastenings.  The Red Caftan Dress The red caftan dress is loose and short and I wear it around the house. It is loose on the arms and waist. I don't need to match up a top and skirt. It is quick to put on if I am hurry...

   The red dress I have worn before, but this time it looks different. I was asked to wear red for a Toastmasters International meeting online, from a club based in California USA. Their dress code was red. This fitted in well with Chinese New Year which is next weekend, but starts on Thursday for those whose workplaces have given them a day off in lieu of a holiday day which would anyway be a day off at the weekend. (In other words, if they have a five day week, to get the two days off for Chinese New Year, they get Thursday off as well as Friday.  However, the USA group, saw red as the appropriate colour for another upcoming holiday, Valentine's Day..    So, here I am in red. Online only my top half was visible when I stayed seated. So not so much of me looked red. And two other ladies wore red hats. So I dashed off for a red hat. The Belt The belt is a scarf. I think the fringe adds a touch of glamour. It makes a change from the plain dress. My real reason fo...
