    Brooches

    Please feel free to merge this thread if there's another one the same - I did have a search, but I never seem to get any proper results! So, last time I was at my Grandma's house, she gave me some brooches that were hers and my Great-Grandma's. They're beautiful, but I've not had them for...

    Battling the Elements, or: Why I Hate St. Petersburg

    Well, I don't really hate St. Petersburg, I like it here a lot! But here is the problem: the weather is not at all conducive to looking nice. It rains. All the time. And the wind is vicious and pretty much constant. Soon it will start getting cold, too. Today I set my hair, did my make-up...

    Glamour's Golden Age: Beautiful and Damned

    I think maybe only Brits can watch this - although you foreigners do try it and give it a go! - but I thought it was interesting and lots of lovely pictures of '20s Bright Young Things. http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00nk9m5/Glamours_Golden_Age_Beautiful_and_Damned/ OK! Cherry...

    A trouser-related nightmare

    Trousers! They are so difficult to buy to fit! I don't like wearing trouserrs much at all, but I would like to have one or two nice pairs, so that when I can't find a pair of stockings that match or I need to be out the door in under five minutes, I can throw them on but still look chic...
