I love having hunt missions; helps excuse my frequent [parlays? field expeditions], and gives me more opportunity to "score." Gonna put my far-reaches-relatives on it, too...interesting things to be found in the northern woods. BTW, March, I actually have a dressing table. Me no wantee. My mom was right; I love fun old things. But not this. Even as my tastes change, and I sometimes wear pink, I'll never be a dressing table gal. Shall we dress the room at ChiCocoa with it? You’re on!

I was giving sword, knife, stick, and hatchet fighting demos for a local colonial-era settlement two weeks ago, and had to try to pick a period perfume to go with both the men's period clothes (it being hard to fight well in stays and a long skirt)and the general level of activity. I settled on Parfumerie Generale's Cologne Grand Siecle for the first day, but it was not, ahem, up to the task of cutting through the sweat, woodsmoke, and general muck. So the next day I went whole hog and doused both myself and my clothes in the Société Beauté Sillage de la Reine. I figured since I was the most heavily armed person there, I might as well smell like a queen. I must say, it performed marvelously.

I dunno what it is with me and these straps but I do love them so. And these are way less $$$ than those $925 Manolos that would've choked me back when I HAD money$-) and a Manolo Lifestyle, let alone now, when I buy my work clothes at Wal Mart! Can you just see me tiptoeing through the foundry sand in those turquoise snakeskins? =)) March,

I. Want. It. :d You often can find it during holidaytime but then it disappears. It's available from the basic online places. If I get some I'll give you a samp. They're very much of their time but the vintage, which I remember only vaguely (and am scared to order via TPC)is completely incredible and transcends all the datedness. Even though they don't have a 'modern' feel to them I must say that walking around in L'Aimant is a very cheering experience....and everyone else seems to agree! Shelley,
