Love at First Sight



Fall in love at first sight with this baby gown. Saw it from a bus on the way home many many years ago in 1995. It was displayed in a glass window at a thrift shop in Walton Village Liverpool. During those years, I haven't got the "flea market" bug yet.....The baby gown was only 2 pounds I think. Its made from the softest material. Soft lace (Belgium lace maybe eh?). It is so delicate and soft to the touch. The length is about 4 feet (from top to bottom).


No baby girl is going to wear this now(sob sob sob), since all my sisters already "tutup kilang" (past the child bearing stage). At the rate am going now pun don't think am gonna be "berdangan" kan sri & M, And I don't think I'm gonna adopt any baby girl(or any baby for that matter regardless of the gender- am too selfish) hahahahahahahahahaha. I m thinking of framing this dress in an acid free frame, and turn it into an "art thing" (something like what was displayed in the Tate Gallery in Albert Dock). Wakakakakakakakakakak!

Hi Whimsical, that is a lovely dress. Why not keep it and get a baby to grow into it...you still young.
It'll be fun to have a baby with a dress already bought.

Ha ha, can't help smiling tengok that dead chichak in previous posting.
Only bones left too. Ha ha.
You keep well, Whimsical, Lee.

I agree with u.lee - why not keep it and get a baby to grow into it ...but then again who would guarantee that you will get a baby girl kan? ..hehe..
