It's a Hoot!

You might not be able to tell, but the print of this Kate Spade dress features little tiny owls. From far way it looks like dots, which adds a little subtly to the print. The Kate Spade  "Cassie" Beacon Hill shirt dress is from a few years back. I was inspired to wear this dress as a result of a question on Jeopardy last night. I believe the category was, "Birds in Words" and the questions was something like, "This bird is associated with knowledge and wisdom." As you can see the trick is that the word "owl" can be found in the word "knowledge." Kudos to you, Jeopardy question writers for being so witty and clever.

While this dress is really cute, the problem with it is that the buttons can pop open if you move your arms too far up or if something such as a seat belt brushes up against them. (This happened to me several times driving to work today!) I should have remembered this from the last time I wore the dress, so I could have worn something underneath, but sadly I forgot. The entire day I was afraid that my "hooters" might be exposed. While that would have been a "hoot," luckily it didn't happen!
