Documenting the trials and musings of a young man wholly invested in the decorum of the world, the dress of its people, and why any of it matters in the first place. As fashions come and go, we hope the driving pulse stays the same. Realities change and confuse, while the soul holds the truth.

Perfectly Reasonable Daydream: 4 | Four | 4 | Four
Purchase hundreds of these beautiful cardboard number fours and wallpaper an entire room with them. Or at least one wall.
this reminds me of a gift henri ii of france gave his with, catherine de' medici: a similar wall adornment made of a large H and what appeared to be a C (for his wife) with a backward C as well. specualtaion was that where the C and H met it formed a D, for his mistress diana de poitiers. catherine was pissed.
More daydreams, please. These are delightful.
ReplyDeletei like that idea... those are nice fours.

ReplyDeleteI'd be pissed too. I can foresee no such jam with my number fours, thankfully.
