variations on a theme:

Lillium formosanum
& Mrs.Delany




 another lady in black.
 and the lily- the most recent incarnation of Mrs. Delany, from Stefano Pilati at Yves Saint Laurent.

 


 from Fall 2012 at Vogue.com
 





& never one to shy away from appearing in a little augury story-Carolina Herrera- with her own ideas on black and floral-here in on her shift-an herbarium flower, tape and all-


 from Spring 2012 at Vogue.com





& with the onset of some rain today-the Lilies came in-
I welcomed them.

& tonight they submitted to more braggart-y photographs from Me, and what did I do?
-just dug the holes for the bulbs,

No, Wait, that was my brother.







& my benefactress?
Sandra Jonas, perhaps in the spirit of the story, my Duchess of Portland, or my Queen Charlotte- emerged from the cloak I wrote her in- at  EDEN, here.


No-you're not seeing double, Sandra brought her Lilies inside to hold court too.








...to be continued.
