I love the hat Marsha but those leaf sequins drove me nuts when I worked on a particular dress some years ago that required thousands of them. Five people working on that dress at the same table with a dealine tighter than the corset that went underneath. Paul
Beauty and niceties....days when you wore gloves to church....hats were worn often....and men wore hats and tipped them.....families weren't so spread out and had meals together......I am glad I had and experienced some of them. How beautiful she is and the hat is breath taking!
Hi dear Marsha, she looks so elegant. I have photographs of my mother and my sister on a picnic at the beach with wonderful dresses and high heeled shoes, it was just the way things were wasn't it? Now...well everything is so casual, I'm ashamed to say that the English are some of the worst of the bunch, oh how I wish those sartorial times would resurrect!
I love Talia's comment: "when people dressed for life." It makes me think of my Grandfather who dressed in a suit everyday to go to the steel factory. We all say "Oh, I don't need to dress up, my life is so casual" (I say this too!!!) but people certainly didn't make such excuses before, did they?
Marsha, I am behind on your posts (as with too many blogs I am afraid) but I am so happy that I didn't miss this. :)
Hi Marsha. I am so behind on blog reading but I seem to arrive at a good moment not to miss the elegance that you presented us with.... sigh...sigh... I would love to dress like that! Just gorgeous! Hugs
Please know how much I value your comments. I read every single one and do hope you will take the time to leave your thoughts. I think InstaGram with the Emojis have taken a lot away from blogging, but I love IG too.
I don't know, but I wish they were back, Marsha.
ReplyDeleteHope that you are having a wonderful day, friend.
