"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.

innocent little rising obsession

these midnight blue and black suede Marni wedges
will go nicely with a pencil skirt and some
semi transparent knee highs...
or some black stockings and a short dress-
or even pants might be the
thing to pair with these classic yet modern day
fancy risers...

they have a Deco/1930's/Bauhaus feel about them
and look like the sort of shoes my stylish grandmother
wore wear around when she was
a perfume girl at Buffum's department store.
