What to Wear When You Have Shingles and Stay Fashionable, for $

The Wardrobe Mistress Has the Shingles!


However, she isn't the only one! It is reported that one out of three people in the U.S will come down with a case of Shingles, in their lifetime. There are approximately one million new cases reported yearly. Anyone who had Chickenpox as a child you can develop Shingles, or Herpes Zoster, as it is also known as, later on in life. The following celebrities have suffered from a case of the Shingles. Roseanne Barr, who said the pain was worse that child birth, Billy Idol, Richard Nixon, Anne Heche, Robin Williams, Amy Grant and Lin-Manuel Miranda (Hamilton creator).  

But what to wear when the blister when the blisters appear in a band on the side of the torso?

The Wardrobe Mistress found a loose fitting Sheath Dress at Rite Aid for (drum roll, please) $12.99!



The dress is loose enough around the torso, even though it doesn't look like it in the pictures, that Wardrobe Mistress decided to buy one in every color! Shingles or not, what a wonderful find!  Check out my other blog post:

Here is how she styled it.
