yes, Virginia

 Nancy, dressed at enormous expense by the greatest artists in Paris, 
stood there looking as if her body had merely put forth, 
of its own accord, a green frill.

  3. That Lacroix dress is absolutely divine, as well are the unlikely bracelets with it... such a genius he is with the long, floaty, ethereal gown. One of my all time favourites.

  8. Completely gorgeous.
    Little Augury, I must admit that every time I visit your blog I learn something new -- and usually something completely apart from the things I focus on in my daily musings -- and I do thank you for this. Your blog is absolutely delightful.
