Sometimes I wish nothing more then no one speaking to me....so that I can think!<br />Well, you made obviously the best out of your time and observed the spiraling movement of fashion, art and design...we always react to the past, we can't get away from that and to be truthfull I enjoy the new birth of old concepts, filled in with the wisdom, that passing time brings. Our creativity is always based on where we come from, nothing getting really lost.<br /><br />You recommend great stuff, love it always, books, movies, places to see...Thank you!<br />XX<br />VictoriaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08572400688345132982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6117194181116669144.post-84714665485819293382009-06-15T21:02:47.569-07:002009-06-15T21:02:47.569-07:00Lisa....a couple of things:

My favorite coat is a Dries that I call the Enchanted Forest: it's wool, semi-conservative cut, with a multi-colored forest print on it.

And the names Ursula and Gudrun!<br /><br />Clarity: Umm, this post was written from 10pm to midnight last night on a single Diet Coke (which I recently started drinking again after a 10 year hiatus). Is it healthy? No. Does it do the trick? Unfortunately, the answer is yes.<br /><br />Diane: As always, I am SO honored that you make it over here. I know, it's so tragic that they're both not alive. I forgot that Bates died a while ago. As for Reed I remember it happened during the making of "Gladiator."
