Two of a Kind

I went on the Bloomingdale's website today to find that on their homepage was an advertisement for Donna Karan's "new" interchangable dress. The advertisement read, "The eponymous line focuses on modern, interchangable pieces for the ultimate in chic versitality." I looked twice because not to long ago, I wore a dress exactly the same! For my sister's wedding in May, we had choosen the "Two Birds" classic straight cut dress for the bridesmaids. The dress is exactly the same to Donna Karan's dress that is advertised, with two long straps sewn into the waistline of the skirt for easy convertability. The dress turned out to be a great success... and investment! According to the Two Birds' website, it is "One dress, Over 15 different ways to wear it." It is perfect to dress down for a dinner date or dress up for a cocktail party. Also, the Donna Karan dress retails for about $950, while we paid 1/3 of the price for the Two Birds dress.
