Experimenting with Fashion

When you have a question, the best way to find an answer is by using the Scientific Method  --  find a method and stick to it . . . um, scientifically. (OK, it was a stretch but you're still reading!) Speaking of "a stretch", I got a new dress -- a different style than I usually wear. (as Sarah put it - "a little more voluptuous vs your usually sweet/sassy")  "Sassy" or "Voluptuous" - you choose Now, I usually wear more flowing materials.
