I'm not perfect. I'm a work in progress with a lot of room for improvement.

There are things I don't like about myself and I'm working hard to change them. Trouble is that I'm my own biggest critic who is harsh and even cruel at times. The Addison DeWitt from " All About Eve" type.

I think I need to be a little bit kinder to myself, give it a rest, at least today. After all, it's Sunday, the day of rest. 🖤

I wear faux fur! What about you?❤️

I feel very uncomfortable with the idea of buying a real fur piece even when it's 90 years old, so faux fur is the perfect alternative for me. @helenmooreengland designs, and the quality of the finished product, are superior to any other faux fur I see on the market. Needles to say, I'm a big fan of Helen Moore because it keeps me warm in Winter without me having to compromise my vintage aesthetic.

How do you like the Joan Crawford worthy faux fur cape in Truffle? I paired the magnificent piece with purple 1940s gloves and a 1940s hat from @2910vintageco 🖤🖤🖤

It was a cold, snowy day in New York City. I remember that it was impossible to get a cab, but I didn't care. Something wonderful happened, and it was all that mattered!

On this day, exactly 16 years ago, I met @gregorymichaelking, and the rest is history. ❤️🖤❤️

Beautiful start to 2021 as I had the pleasure and honour to collaborate with my favourite faux fur brand @helenmooreengland 💗
Thank you for the interview and for choosing me as your guest blogger! [LINK IN THE BIO]

In the picture, I’m wearing a Helen Moore Capelet in the most delicious looking shade of pink that reminds me of a macaroon from Ladurée, my biggest weakness in life. At the moment, I wear it indoors, as it goes perfectly with all of my 1940s nightgowns and the interiors of our boudoir.

The new to me CC41 nightgown is from one of my favourite vintage sellers @pincurlsvintageservices 💋
