Yesterday, to visit a friend on her 93rd birthday:
Very thin black wool vneck wraparound jumper (above knee length);
Black ballet neck bodysuit;
Fire engine red tights;
Black Steve Madden highheeled maryjanes (they have chunky heels and black
leather appliqued flowers on the toes; they look either very 60s or very
today though they are nether, being about 10 years old);
Silk scarf that is black with some colorful embroidery on one side and red
on the other side; the red shows through to the black side for a very
interesting effect;
Plain black shoulder bagvery soft leathera gift from my brother after
his trip to Paris;
Silver puff heart with a heartshaped garnet in the center (a Yurman ripoff)
on a black leather cord;
the usual diamond solitaire drop earrings and single stud.
The red tights took some getting used to but I thought they looked pretty
cute with the maryjanes; as a benefit, since I didn't wear boots, I didn't
have to add these to the "too effed up to wear with anything but boots"
pile.<G>

Makeup, it takes believing in. Like a magic carpet, it's belief that
makes it fly. Otherwise, it's just a rug.
If you believe in it, makeup has a magic all it's own.
Of course, makeup is only dimestore magic. But it works well enough,
when it's used properly.",
