Boomer i think the reason for why she isn't a lady is either because I believe in Britain you remain 'the honorable' until your parents die, or if she has an older sibling they retain the title and she remains the 'honorable' I would ha-sent a guess its the latter.

^ Humm, thanks for the thoughts...I've never understood that whole thing...I mean, in Brideshead Revisited, Lord Marchmain was head of the household, which was Brideshead castle, but Sebastian, his youngest son, was Lord Flyte, and his sisters were Lady Julia and Lady Cordelia... So why then, wouldn't Daphne be Lady Moyne and her sons Lords? And why wouldn't Charlotte, who is Princess Caroline of Monaco's daughter, and is in line to the throne, be Princess Charlotte? Ah, Yankees, we understand none of this, I'm afraid...

Well Princess Caroline did this thing when her children where born to ensure they wouldn't gain the title of Prince and Princess, she didn't want them to be burden with the responsibilities or stress. But that's off topic.

Seriously.. she walks on the edge with the outfit in the first post.. if you cropped the picture in half.. and just looked at the bottom part (and left out the expensive bag..
I think most would be inclined to think that that was just some glamour girl.. in hooker mary janes and stockings..)
..but combined.. with her conservative upper body garments she sents such a mixed signal..
glamour girl and buttoned up conservative that it sort of cancels each other out.. and become this 'other thing'.

second picture.. that's not her is it ? .. it looks like a 'lookalike'

They are but I don't mind!

^^ That's a good point, Hanne! She often puts couture and biker chic/medieval knight looks together and somehow makes it look great!!

Yeah- and Arielle Dombasle is also one of Karl's gang, which makes it very interesting...

Its intresting to me how even though they didnt comment on it, they dont bother to hide it either.

I so wonder about her new fragrance, it must be amazing judging by her description.

 

[Boomer]

^^ Maybe they have one of those open marriages that they always talk about...

Love her entire look at Schwab . Her maryjanes look like a deep plum, a new pair possibly? Or maybe its just the lighting.
