Your Monday quotes are such a nice way to start the week, and special thanks for this! Speaking of surrealism and personal style, I loved the little Golden Gate Bridge atop your coiffure at the Art Deco Preservation Ball on Saturday!
Thank you, Alice for the feedback. I thought the quotes might be a nice Monday morning treat. And thanks too for the comment on my fascinator. It was great fun to make and wear. You looked stunning as always! See you at Gatsby if not before.
