Dresses To Look Nice


   Your looks to carry your first impression:
   Your dresses ! Onlookers to appreciate.
   It is said ‘ Choose food on own decision,
   but select dresses on choice of associates.’

    Your looks to lie on eyes of beholder.
    Dress must fit well and also to look nice.
    To tailor or give ready made order,
    priority : how you look, not the price.
   
    Several dresses, my closet to hold
   uniforms, traditional, or casual
   for summer, rainy season or the cold,
   fashionable, formal, occasional.

   I choose dress to look smart and elegant.
   suitable, if made for an occasion.
   Selection of dress ! Very important.
   Dress to advertise my first impression.

   I wear all types of dresses : typical
  Bengali and North or South Indian
  Assamese, also morning walk special.
  Even feel free in some dresses : Western.

  India - born, me specific Bengalee.
  USA : my second home more or less.
  I feel comfort in Jeans-Top, in Saree.
  Long skirt -blouse : my most favourite dress .
