I know that lecture was wonderful, I am going to download it. I have no doubt the B. coat and the SP were made for each other. So interesting your comments over at Diane's about the prints of Balenciaga. YOU Must write that guest post for Me.

They are still very beautifully made, and in small volume. If Akari, the ideal source, is between semi-annual shipments, the OK Store in Los Angeles is an alternative. I had in mind that I might discuss these truly sensuous sculptures at my page, but I'm glad to be relieved of that project, at least for a while.Laurenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17972899387484460347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3498357134928699381.post-86551542494220029392011-03-31T03:55:54.414-04:002011-03-31T03:55:54.414-04:00Loulou--an amazing lady.
