All That Glitters Is Not Gold

As long as I can remember

I've been fascinated with crystal

and the way that light plays off of it.

This is even more so if the crystal

moves, like it does on a chandelier,

making the light dance around the room,

toying with each new piece of crystal

it may find in it's journey.

Isn't this one fabulous?

This one is so elegant...

Eye Candy

Marie Antoinette

You've got to love a good period movie...

Hair piled high and falling in curls...

Beautiful fabrics playing with light... 

Palest of skin...perfect, without flaw

Captivating the mystery of history

Enticing the media with it's eye candy

Fans, feathers, feminity...woohoo

Girl time. Girl talk.

Let's not forget those shoes...

Lots and lots of shoes.

Gorgeous, one-of-a kind shoes.. 

Did anyone else see these converse sneakers under the table?

I thought I was seeing things at first...

and then I found this image...

Sofia is toying with us girls.

I covet the fans.

They are gorgeous!

Can't you just see me chasing the toddlers

around the house with my fan to cool off?

It could work...

I might as well have a few petticoats

 too to go with them...

I'll skip the table of sweets,

but a maid would be a sweet treat occasionally

Enough said.

Love the blue ribbons

Blue room

Dripping gold

Crystal chandeliers

Yards and yards of fabulous fabrics

I love this movie for the images

and all the thoughts and feelings they

conjure up within me

A magical time in history in many ways
