I think Patricia Field, the SATC costume designer, was alluding to the 80's tutu ala Madonna, which probably also harkened back to Degas. Fashion -- it all circles and cycles. <br />Have you read The Painted Girls by Cathy Marie Buchanan? It's about the dancer that modeled for the above statue. I really enjoyed it.<br />Thanks for linking up with 52 Pick-me-up Green!

I think most don't notice a brooch like that, with its simple elegant lines instead of a lot flash (and I love the flashy ones too), so I'm glad you like it. As for the shoes, I wasn't convinced crippled me could walk in them so I want to give them their inaugural run when I have a ride and/or Beau's arm to lean on, but I walked to this meeting so I opted for something tried and true.Charlotte Issyvoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11081140798331499819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-371230315197236857.post-29607118842548321862014-02-18T11:00:39.604-08:002014-02-18T11:00:39.604-08:00First off you look like a beautiful mermaid to me-...First off you look like a beautiful mermaid to me- I love that color set on you, and those shoes you didn't wear- LOOOOOVE! Maybe they'll make an appearance again for next month's #shoeshine. And that brooch? Lady it nearly stole the show! Thank you for merging your style with the glory of great art, and reminding me it's the pleasure of combining the day to day with the inspirational that make dressing, and dressing up so fun. citizen rosebudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12038740885720827086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-371230315197236857.post-81871063495194793602014-02-11T09:08:26.722-08:002014-02-11T09:08:26.722-08:00Yes, you do the little dancer proud in homage.

Sweet photos all, and I enjoyed seeing you looking so happy and beautiful.<br />The little dancer was at the Modern when I saw her in the 80s. I'd seen her in photos forever, but the delight of actually seeing the fabric skirt has never been lost for me. Just seeing her again makes me happy.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12630135395645059302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-371230315197236857.post-74366139938924811952014-02-09T17:00:32.504-08:002014-02-09T17:00:32.504-08:00I love froth and tulle, and the gorgeous ballerina...I love froth and tulle, and the gorgeous ballerinas of Degas too.
