I found a pair of casual black ruched gloves, in black, in a drawer and have started wearing them. They are empowering!

But I think they are now out of style. However, if you want a bit of your inner Miranda Priestly to show, these gloves kinda do it.

(I'm not really into being Miranda Priestly but I would love to say to Trump "No, no...that is all..." and wave him away...

1. I collect vintage gloves and have several pairs.

I agree that gloves are empowering. As for still being in style... be the one to bring them back.

3. Oh, I do. The ones I have are longer than wrist length and slightly to the midarm.

they are casual but lovely with slightly curved fingertips. And they are lightweight...

2. "Everything old is new again!"

Those gloves are beautiful! My daughter has started wearing some of the broaches that I gave her (I don't dress up so much any more - retired) that fell out of style. Now we just need shoulder pads to return. I have a gorgeous leather bomber jacket that I'd love to wear again!

4. I have old black and white photos of my mother in dresses/suits with shoulder pads!

She was a gorgeous blonde with green eyes (neither of which I inherited...they were "wasted" on my brother!).

6. Can you give me some advice then? I inherited a mink stole from my mother and it hangs in the

back of my storage closet. What do I do with it?

7. My Mom had one of those

I'm not sure what happened to it. You could consider maybe having a piece of it made into a collar for a dressy winter coat, if you have one. The problem is that genuine animal fur is not popular any more - the cruelty of the animal trade is awful.

Not sure what to suggest. There may still be furriers around who might give you some guidance.

11. WEAR it!

Getting chilly, eh???

12. In super liberal New Haven? And where to, the supermarket?

I would probably be accosted by animal rights activists and they would be right to question it.
Plus, I really don't want to wear animal fur.

Could I give it o an animal rights org. and let them decide how to dispose of it?

13. I suppose you could contribute it somewhere,

to a place for people in need; not animal rights activists.

Sorry my husband disposed of the mink coat he gave me (after we separated,) was light weight and warm.

14. I have a neighbor who "knows stuff" and I'll ask him. He might know what to do...

15. Sell it....

5. No, but I do know what...

...ruched means.

Spell Check doesn’t - corrected it to “riches.”

8. They are sexy! nt

[CTyankee]

10. They are...kinda! I can't figure out why, tho...

9. never heard the term,

'To gather fabric in a repeating pattern to make such a pleat or ruffle. To gather (fabric) in a repeating pattern to make such a pleat or ruffle.'

Mine are un-ruched black leather gloves, with some sort of lining.

18. I have totally forgotten where/when I got them. we had a cold snap last week and I was

searching a drawer for gloves and there they were...I'd love it if they had a deep, dark history but alas...
