But today when I made a dash into Sears for something totally boring and non-fashionable, I saw this new line of clothing, UK Style by French Connection, that was well, darned stylish. Featuring my dream boatneck top. Who knew the road to power tools was paved with boatnecks? Only none in my size. Very :( Things got very :) when I checked online, and there was my size, on sale for $10.99! (I'm pretty sure this means I can get a black non-striped one, too.)

| Sears' catalog images are the devil to capture, but heck, this is either Claudia Schiffer, or her doppelganger. |
Also, I caught myself oddly spellbound in the Lands' End section, drooling over clothes I wouldn't have been caught dead in two weeks ago. Is this sudden onset upper-middle-age, or is it just that these clothes look like what everyone wore in 1980?
Seriously, Sears has some drop dead good deals on tops for spring, including:
 |
| Apostrophe Ruffled Shell $14.94 |
 |
| Covington Pintuck Scoopneck Tank $11.99 |

Oh! I love those tops!! Good find. I need to go shopping soon.
Too bad you live so far away. I always need a new shopping buddy :) You have the same style I do.

Thanks, PH, but I know you have way better shoes than me! (See I'm sooooooo cheap...lol.)
Those boatnecks are gonna rock some pencil skirts and [faux] pearls :)
It's not your age Lynne. I think some of the classic 80s looks are making a comeback. I'm starting to see gals wearing jeans that actually hit the waist. (A welcome site to this hour glass figure.) As long as shoulder pads and neon colors continue to keep their distance I'm good with that.
Karen, I agree it's startling to see some of the best and worst of the 80s recycling through stores now! I hope we skip a do-over of the HAIR, tho'...lol.
