"You are the only English woman I know who manages to be really chic in really hideous clothes".

No.3    Elaborate fashionables
a splendid menagerie[1] (also known as fancy-full gallants[2]) place particular importance upon appearance, refined language, and leisurely hobbies, pursued with the appearance of nonchalance in a cult of Self.[3] Historically, especially in late 18th- and early 19th-century Britain, a dandy, who was self-made, often strove to imitate an aristocratic style of life despite coming from a middle-class background.

All growth is a leap in the dark, a spontaneous unpremeditated act without benefit of experience.

a friend of mine sent this image to me recently.
i think it is one of the most beautiful images ever...
the way her mouth is captured and frozen in the middle of saying
something or some word
like...'Gelato' or 'I'm going to go now- and don't try to follow.]
and her feathered head piece is exquisite

and

these two ladies look like they need to get some where
really fast.
perhaps it is 5:47 in the morning and they don't want
anyone to see where they had been all night long...
