The New Dickie?




I used to laugh when my mom would talk about dickies--those little faux shirts women in the 50s would wear under sweaters. However, I have noticed that every few years someone tweaks the dickie concept, and it becomes the next great thing.

Today's version is called a "topping" and comes from CeCe. Not being a real blouse person, I had not been interested in such nouveau dickies in the past. Now I realize I am the perfect candidate for a topping because I am not a blouse person. I have hated the bulk, the tucking in, the feeling of confinement, all of that ironing. . . But with the topping, these things are non-issues. Heck, I may give it a try. What do you think?
