Lady Melbourne in her natural habitat: part II


Sometimes a gal has to work for her diamonds, I'm lucky enough to work in an environment surrounded by black and white art work, not to mention the mirrored table tops. It's a pleasure being there everyday.

I like your blog :-) There are many flea markets around Paris (btw. spelled marché aux puces) and it is nice to see that one is still able to find such gems!

I love those shoes simply gorgeous. They remind me of a little pair I spotted at Central Command aka Chanel store. That jacket is also quite charming. It is a pity that thing dangling from your neck aka collar is thwarting it's full effect.

I'm still in love with the new 'Do Lady M. It's such a retro look but you make it look so fresh and new.

And what a stylish workplace you have!

Anna Wintour? That old hard faced biddie? No LM looks like a porcelain doll which doesn't look like its had its face pushed through a mincer.

Hi Lady! My name is Veronica and I'm from Brazil. I have a blog about dresses, where I posted two pictures of you. Your dresses are really beautiful and I love the way you choose your clothes! Is there any problem if sometimes I use some picture of you in my homepage? I's a pleasure visiting you blog! : )

Too noisy. The voluminous white skirt seems to shrink you and makes you appear small and unremarkable.

I also prefer your longer hair which is more playful and makes you look quite unique. As much as I love a bob, I think yours looks too school marmish and lacks movement.

I think you look lovely in elegant, well-cut clothing--tailored pants, late-50s and early-60s dresses, lovely blouses. But not the 50s or 80s frou-frou.

Thanks,

Jess

I agree with anon no offense LM!

I think your hair looks better longer but you have had it cut so I don't want to make you feel bad. Sorry.

I also think that classic Chanel cuts suit your frame and overall style perfectly. The frou frou 50's and 80's does not do you justice. Your overall style (which is why I visit your blog) is always elegant but this outfit is not the classic mix and match LM.

I hope I have not offended you because that is not the intent of this post.

VV- darling you know where it's at, lets just say I'd never chip a nail in the persuit of a working day.

Andrea- thank you, I have amended my spelling. Oh to be back there right now shopping!

Richard- Central Command- I love it! Porcelain Blonde also refers to it as 'The Mother Ship.'
I understand your aversion to collars but I'm sorry darling, they are here to stay!

Grant- thank you my love.

SKM- I've had the job for a while but kept it under wraps. I'll be able to reveal more in a few weeks time!

Annie- thank you, she's a style icon of mine.

Harbour Master- fab blog, I'll link you darling.

Richard- jumping to my defence, oh my! She is a little hard faced come to think of it...

Veronica- thank you, you are very sweet!

Anon/Jess- thanks for the feedback, roger that!It's always good to hear constructive thoughts.

Marielle- no offence taken! I can't exactly get it back, so it's here to stay for a while! Thanks for your constructive comments.

Uber- thanks! : )
