Bolo
At the risk of losing my charter membership in the 'Sisterhood', I have to admit that I don't much like to go 'shopping' (except to splurge at the Dollar Store, lol).
I am therefore having a hard time finding a specific item: silk tank tops. I used to have a bunch, but they've all gone somewhere,  and the last one is now falling apart, sadly. They are a summer favorite: as light as air, comfortable, & easy, and excellent for layering, too.
If any of you ladies happen to see them, somewhere, anywhere, would you please let me know where they can be found? 'Preciate it!

Re: Bolo
Bolo? Like a piece of string with a chunk of silver and turquoise. I'm sure a silk bolo would be light and airy but also very revealing. You did mention layering, so that would work in public. Have you looked at any Dale Evans' Secret or Cowgirls of Hollywood Stores?

Re: Bolo
Hey Cheri, have you ever seen one of these stores:
http://www.hamrickshosting.com/hamri...ions/5_25_.pdf
The store is Hamricks and they are located mostly in Tennessee, North Carolina, and I think some in GA. The promotion add may not have exactly what you want but I'll bet they have them in a store and their prices are very reasonable. Maybe a call to a store would solve the problem for you. Good luck!

Re: Bolo
I still have some chinchilla halter tops left over from my raising chinchillas for fun and profit days. Not quite as light and airy as a silk bolo, but much less revealing. Would Mrs. Packmule be interested?
Speaking of bolos, I have a chinchilla boa, dyed pink. I promised Jesse Ventura first dibs, but if he declines I'm putting it out on the open market.

Yes - but does it come with a free complimentary copy of the current issue of Grit ?
If so, I may be interested ......

Re: Bolo
BOLO stands for "Be On the LookOut" - don't you guys watch cop shows?! 
Thanks to India & Turtle, and no thanks, to Moot - a chinchilla bolo isn't exactly what I had in mind and anyway, I'm still waiting for the chinchilla steering wheel cover....

Re: Bolo
I'm glad I just went to the bathroom, or I'da had the laughing whizzes (still much better than the yucking squirts).

Re: Bolo
Moot,
Don't be selling all 'em chinchiller skins now. You promised me a chinchiller mortar board when I grad-u-ma-wait from college. 1 year down and about 3 to go. You know Ima gonna look good walking cross the stage at the "cow college" as they call the University of Arkansas at Monticello with it on.

Re: Bolo
LOL Yeah, me too. Problem with Bloomies is, they're gonna cost way more than Cheri's gonna want to spend for a trucker's work shirt. $120, $130, probably. Designer silk ain't cheap, although, you'd think it would be, since it all comes from China.
