Dorothea's Closet
I just finished watching Fried Green Tomatoes for the umpteenth time (I think I have a weak spot for stories set in Alabama). For some reason I can’t find any decent still shots from the movie online which is a shame because it showcases just the kind of simple cotton frocks I’m so in love with right now. Am I missing the secret Fried Green Tomatoes website or something?
I wish more of those pretty dresses had managed to weather the years but it seems that most of them have just disintegrated. And when I do find one, it tends to be well above my budget. Such is the case for Dorothea's Closet. It's packed full of just the type of dresses I wish were packing my closet. Unfortunately they're well out of my budget, but it doesn't hurt to look, right?

she does have an amazing collection i've perused a few times. so much lovely eye candy. but her prices are totally insane. $90 for a 60s polyester hawaiian shift w no label is just ridiculous.
.. but it is really cute...
FRIED GREEN TOMATOES WAS A WONDERFUL MOVIE
AND THE FROCKS WERE SIMPLY FANTASTIC. WOULDN'T MIND WEARING THEM ON A HOT DAY OF SUMMER.

LOVE that sheer black one with the gold leaf print. love them all really.
I watched that movie so many times when I was little...How cute it is!! And I am a victim of the southern charm, too. Dresses and frocks included.
I have to watch this again! I've only seen it once! :o)
I need to see this movie
wow, what a gorgeous collection! so far out of my price range that it's a bit depressing, but still gorgeous!
Fried Green Tomatoes is one of my favourite films from when I was growing up! The costumes really are adorable!
Those dresses are amazing but she obviously knows it- they are so so expensive.
i love that film and the book, they're so adorable!
I'm always checking out Dorothea's!
Hmmm I'll have to check that movie out...

Fried green tomatoes is my all time most favourite movie!the book is even better...
i LOVE the book, i need to get my hands on a copy of the film. i wish my local video shop wasn't so crappy...
It is also one of my favourite movies.
you totally inspired me to go and watch that movie again yesterday and when my boyfriend came home he made me start it over so he could see it (it was his first time!) we both cried! haha
I love Fannie Flagg's book!!!
Somehow you do channel the fashions from that movie! Those pieces look so right for you!
