SCHIAP'S 12 COMMANDMENTS
I just can't get enough about the rebirth of the fashion house Elsa Schiaparelli, 1927, this coming July at the same address where the designer once had: 21 Place Vendome in a 1st district of Paris. It truly goes down through my veins hearing news like this, it seems that legendary fashion icons/designers have taken back the spotlight.

Below, is the Elsa Schiaparelli's 12 commandments for women she has written down:
1. Since most women do not know themselves they should try to do so.
2. A woman who buys an expensive dress and changes it, often with disastrous result, is extravagant and foolish.
3. Most women (and men) are color-blind. They should ask for suggestions.
4. Remember-twenty percent of women have inferiority complexes. Seventy percent have illusions.
5. Ninety percent are afraid of being conspicuous, and of what people will say. So they buy a gray suit. They should dare to be different.
6. Women should listen and ask for competent criticism and advice.
7. They should choose their clothes alone or in the company of a man.
8. They should never shop with another woman, who sometimes consciously or unconsciously, is apt to be jealous.
9. She should buy little and only of the best or cheapest.
10. Never fit a dress to the body, but train the body to fit the dress.
11. A woman should buy mostly in one place where she is known and respected, and not rush around trying every new fad.
12. And she should pay her bills.
And now, as highlighted above, I am totally agreeing with numbers 5, 9, 10, 11, and 12, don't you?
That's all.
Keep posted. I love y'all!
