swooning

'86 prom, david, manlia
'castings', nigel, hong kong

'shuffling', andre j, manlia. for some reason i just love this...






'contrast', clement louis, paris (aka my future husband)



the boys sure know what they're doing these days. oh, how i love well-dressed men, don't you? it seems from my extensive research on lookbook.nu, the males from manlia in particular are exquisitely stylish, not to mention unique. personal favorites of mine are cardigans, blazers and button-down shirts. hopefully their aussie counterparts will lift their game eventually. in other news, i now must go to manlia, to find a man. that is, if clement louis won't take me. which he will. fingers crossed. kiss kiss!

the lovely rachel and one of her many hats...

"Not that I give a hoot about jewelry. diamonds, yes. but it's tacky to wear diamonds before you're forty"

...said the always wonderful and marvellous, not to mention utterly and entirely fabulous Audrey Hepburn, in her flawless performance as Holly Golightly in 'Breakfast at Tiffany's'. which was of course penned by the brilliant Truman Capote, but... i digress.

darlings, today's pearl of wisdom (well i hope it's wisdom, perhaps it's a bit pretentious to assume so?) is tinged with sadness, because i lost mine... hopefully just temporarily. it is...



SIGNATURE 'THING'. WHAT MAKES YOU UNIQUELY YOU


in effect, what's that one thing about you that makes people say 'that's her thing' or 'that's so you'?


so, you must know what i'm talking about. Blair's headbands... Holly's huge sunglasses... Gwen's platinum blonde hair... Miranda's white Hermes scarf for those of you who have read The Devil Wears Prada. i could go on forever, but i won't. you probably already have it, that one thing that makes you YOU. if you don't create it. it could be anything. a nail polish colour, a certain pair of shoes, a favorite hat. mine, of course, is the 'versatile scarf' as my friend calls it. actually, i have two, which i alternate between, and usually wear in my hair. it's a recent development, as of this year, and i love it. it goes with everything, i where it everywhere, and it just adds a bit of interest to my outfit, whatever that may be. it's a way to put your own stamp on things, so to speak. it helps to define your style. and in the immortal words of Yves Saint Laurent, "fashion fades. STYLE is eternal." kiss kiss!
