Dora’s parents were killed when she was a child. She was brought up by her grandmother, Mimi, who runs a vintage dress shop. She attends a college where she majors in liberal studies and works in a coffee shop. She has a ‘thing’ for her boss, but is really just living life. She gets a call that her grandmother is in hospital in her home town of Forsyth, North Carolina. She gets in her car and drives home. As a child Dora played “dress up” with the clothes in Mimi’s shop, but as a young adult she wouldn’t wear any of them. Dora decides to keep the dress store open while Mimi is in hospital. She now has to wear vintage clothing. While working in the store she meets Mimi’s friends and her gets reacquainted with her relatives. Dora is surprised that Mimi has given some dresses a “secret life” – a story about the dress. These are given to the customer that purchases the dress. This story is about how Dora finds herself; how she was fighting herself / Mimi and the regrets she has. It is a story of a young girl growing into a young women. I loved it. It evokes many emotions; sadness, hope, excitement, rage and delight. Erin writes a blog; dressaday – check it out. She is a lexicographer who founded Worknik.com. No wonder her story is able to evoke so many emotions.
