Oh we're not nostalgic for revolution, dying, & starvation. No, no. We have to read & write about that all of the time. No, the film is on our local PBS station tonight. So we've been thinking about how cozy the clothing looks (if one is not a freezing peasant...an important point).We've been in need of a winter hat for a few years & this elegant headband from Pipsqueak Chapeau Etc caught our eye some time ago. It would do nicely in place of the big-fur hatted look in Zhivago. We miss our brown suede shearling-cuffed Lara coat from Strasbourg. Nostalgia for cozy dark velvets, embroidery, gorgeous jewellry (you can fake it) & scarves.
Hoping for a white Christmas but pretty sure it's not in the cards...
bisou,
