Scullery Maid at Gosford Park..........

Kitchen duties can be grueling, particularly when you're taking flack from the

upper floor.

It's back-breaking work, cleaning, hand wash, cooking, dear God!

I got this linen cotton blend dress at Willow, it's plain and utilitarian.

I wasn't always a downstairs maid but the family has fallen on hard times. I've managed to hang on to the family's heirloom jewelry SO FAR.

These shoes are good for mopping, beheading chickens and cleaning silver ware, WHEEEEEEEE!

PYMWEAR...............

Pym always wears hats as a protection against the sun unlike SOMEONE we know.

Now that she's at the gallery she removes her bonnet and sets to work cleaning the glass on the cases.

What a fantastic frock she chooses today, plaid is HUGE this season and a little bow and tulle make it tres feminine.

Post work she changes into her sexy clothes and heads off to the disco where she has a wonderful time!

Floral Explosion Sunday.............

Sheer deep v-neck dress in two florals. Comfy AND cool.

This cascading beaded necklace is such a fantastic art piece in itself.

Yet another floral in this t-strap wedge with peep-toe. I feel like a master gardener created my outfit!

This is the detailed neckline of a sheath dress is partner Leroy gave me for my birthday.

India is all about brilliant color so I picked this fuchsia  

 number to set the mood to hit the market stands.

This fierce Kristin Deiner brandishes an eyeglass with tiny pearls and a woman's image

as well as rhinestone stars and a handmade chain. Major!

Denim Dominance........

This is a necklace I had Karan Sipe make for me that can wrap three times. Adore it!

Though not religious, I LOVE all the iconography.

Denim dress, Marc Jacobs mattress ticking belt, and these SUPER ruched pants that I got in the juniors department of Macy's for $5.99!I mean ruched from waist to bottom, if they were not ruched they'd be about 20 feet long!

These are kitten heeled Irregular Choice blue leather shoes with embroidered angels and roses on them.

I'll try not to fall down today, I'll make it my mission!

The Most Marvelous Blouse I Own.........

This blouse is by Philip Lim and not only is it the most gorgeous blouse I own, it also the most EXPENSIVE! It bares significant size CZ's on pleats and adhered by the CZ's. See through sleeves, an exposed zipper and pleated collar. I worship it.Marcia Sedneck pin.

These platform rainbow wedges will keep me upright today. I'm a klutz in flats!!!!
