ladylike lips in Coral


Loving the coral again this Spring and Summer, and a go-to favorite is Coral 080, Revlon Color Burst. This is what it looks like all by itself, but it blends incredibly well with other colors.


Inspiration...need you ask?

So very "Pushing Daisies"

Found on Etsy, this wallet features spring green leather, ladybugs, and daisies! It's just darling.

You can find it at Junkyard Glitter by Chante Warner.

Wacky Wednesdays: Daphne Guinness

Ordinarily, I'm obsessed with classic fashion: early to mid-century, classy, elegant, and even casual and preppy glamour. Well, it's Wacky Wednesday, and I'm going to share my love for fashion that can only be described as Aristocratic Dominatrix. This wacky Wednesday features the epically glam Daphne Guinness, whose forbidding, icy, jewel encrusted fashion sense makes me melt into a puddle of fashion ecstasy.

 Her hair looks absolutely smashing here. Love the color and high-shine, though I imagine maintenance is a bit obnoxious. Where does one wear such a dress? Why does it work so well on her?
 Aristocratic jewels, haughty Mommy Malfoy expression, and gauntlet gloves that suggest a spanking might not be out of the question.
Cravat, brooch, pearls...normally this would be Batman-like over-accessorizing, especially when her hair ornament and ear cuffs are accounted for. The black palette really allows those baubles to shine, yet her fabulous fine-boned face is never lost in the mix. (That concealer is a bit chalky, though.)














Sigh. She's beautiful.
