Cold Hard Cache *cache.com*

Looking for a flirty frock that’s summer sexy but not bank-breaking? Cache is the place to be!

Now, hold on- I know exactly what you’re thinking. “Cache? That cheeeezy store that reeks of CBS Daytime Soaps? No thanks!”

Well, I was in the mall on Saturday (noticing a pattern with me?) and the strangest thing happened- Cache’s window display caught my eye. Like a former stripper/amnesia victim married to her ex-husband’s cousin’s best friend who has been in a coma for 3 1/2 years, but is the heir to a billion-dollar rubber fortune, I just went with my twisted fate. And boy was I happy I did.

A maxi dress in tropical pink and green with oversized white buttons all the way down the front greeted me first. Hmm, I’m thinking Bold&Beautiful’s Brooke on a romantic island getaway with 2x ex-husband, but true love Ridge…or is it brother Thorne? Or their father Eric?

A multi-colored floral sheath dress hung in the middle of the store, begging for a scandalous storyline. Let’s see-  Y&R’s (semi)reformed bad girl Phyliss slinking around the office in this sexy number while staging a cut-throat takeover of Jabot Cosmetics.

You Are the Fashion of My Life *cache.com*

An asymetrical floorlength stunner of bright tropical hues? Well, insert any soap star stalking around a mansion with a crystal tumbler full of lemonade/iced tea/scotch with no ice.

I’m not trying to force my guilty pleasure of Soap Operas onto you, dear readers. (Though I have been a Y&R enthusiast since the third grade). But I am trying to show you that like these DaytimeDisneytales, Cache can infuse some flirty fantasy into your closet. Fashion shouldn’t always be as serious and deep as the season finale of Mad Men. Sometimes all you really want is a little bit of far-fetched feel-good. And if any of these dresses sprouts a mysterious evil twin, would you really be that upset?
