Necklace, Giorgio Armani; NYC, January 2014
From windows at the New York flagship. It's not clear whether the necklace is askew on the mannequin, or designed to be asymmetrical. I hope it's the latter.

Clutches from Shangai Tang
Miu Miu shoes that I wish I had, spring 2011. They're still in stores, but not remotely close to my size. Maybe in a few months I will see them at some kind of outlet store. They photos were taken from the blog, Sea of Shoes.
I've lost the info on who made this necklace.
Paula Yates was Bob Geldof's wife (and Pixie and Peaches Geldof's mom) and she also had a baby with Michael Hutchence. She died in 2000. Jools Holland is still on TV in the UK, and he was also the piano player in Squeeze.

Passenger Lists for the S.S. De Grasse, CGT French Line, February 1928 and September 1927, both Le Havre to New York.
Amanda DeCadenet is a fashion photographer who became famous for hosting a British TV show as a teenager.
I can't tell if this is a photo that she took or if it's a photo of her. She looks generally like this and she was approximately this age in the 80's, but it also looks close to her photo style.
Whatever it is, I like the shot a quite a bit; it's kind of posh and bratty at the same time. It might be a visualization of my childhood aspirations!
