I never knew the charm of spring, never met it face to face

I dug out my Sarah Vaughan CD this evening... I love her singing April in Paris. Hear below:



Listening to her or Billy Holiday makes you want to gussy up in something frilly and ladylike. With pearls. Very Grace Kelly or Audrey Hepburn. Sometimes in the midst of some really bad low-rise jeans or sweatpants with uggs, I think we are missing something today. (Along with manners!)


 Grace Kelly  by Howell Conant, circa 1955

Grace again in Cannes, 1955

 
Audrey Hepburn as Holly Golightly
"I was due at 21 half-an-hour ago." 

 
Claudia Schiffer in 2010 Ferragamo ads, love!
