You know my enthusiasm for hats - the bigger, the better. (And I wear all of them, in real life).
And I had a shoe-tic, tamed by now (
hahaha).
When I still wrote my blog "
You are Witty and Pretty", I carried the torch for the
fashionista - but soon I got
bored tired by all these blogs counting up what they bought here, and then there, and you had not to be Einstein to calculate that their
armoire, (never a simple cupboard), must be as big as our posh emporium
KaDeWe in toto - and the blogger's gloves and scarves they had to put on the Tauentzien & Kudamm together for want of room.
So the "pretty" gave way to the "witty" - at least I tried, till at last I gave up.
But back to fashion:
I now add gloves (sort of) to my passions.
Aren't the lacy-ones above beautiful? (And practical: you still can write an SMS).
The painters and artists among you know: nothing is as difficult as drawing hands - and photographing them - on your own - isn't easy either. So please don't look with a too critical eye at the way my arm looks in the photo- and no, I didn't overdo my weight-training, I only stem the wall...
These one - manufactured by
Karl Lagerfeld - were a present from my young Hamburgian friend:
When I wear them - especially in Hamburg, the city of the
very mighty and
very rich - some older gentle(?)men in Brioni-suits get a certain glitter in their eyes - as if
Gabriella Cilmi sings in their mind "
Nothing's Sweet About Me".
So hastily I counter-trill from Puccini's
La Bohème: "
How icecold is this tiny hand" -
and wait for even colder days to carry my newest trove:
PS: As I joined
Joanne Noragon's brand-new Facebook-site which shows the beautiful scarves she weaves, their might be a new mode
en vogue for me...
