Kindness and a Borrowed Blue Dress

"Elegance does not consist in putting on a new dress."
~ Coco Chanel

A very special friend of mine went to a wedding a couple of weeks ago -- in a spectacular blue dress.  Everyone who saw the photos told her how stunning she looked.  And she told everyone that a friend had lent her the dress.  The friend who lent her the dress told her that it did not make sense to say that she was in a borrowed dress, but my friend had no problem with it at all.  She thoroughly enjoyed wearing the dress as well as the compliments that she received.  I also believe that my friend understands what a blessing it is to have great friends who lend you beautiful things and who want the best for you, and she has no problem acknowledging that, too.
