  1. Well, she also had a silver poodle--Jones is about 3x that size, but also silver/blue.
    Oh, to be that elegant (and tall).
    Have a great week.

  3. Mrs. Blair is, indisputably, at the apex of Society Lady Bouffant Hall of Fame. And I mean that as a sincere compliment. So beautiful, and the best mane of hair on the planet! Reggie
