Thanks for that Tomasso - I can definitely see the Hitchcock influence in the style of the movie - all the clothes she wears are pretty timeless - now to see if I can get my hands on some of those Ferragamo shoes!!!!!!!!
No real desire to see this movie but I was drooling over Angelina's wardrobe in this - her strolling along in that divine black suit - even the simple sweater she has on is fabulous.....
NancyLouise and Foofoogal - thank you so much!
Wire9Vintage - Wow - your Mum is beautiful! I really thought it was a studio portrait - she really looks like a movie star!

You are so lucky to have a good postal system - ours is normally good but the whole country has come to a standstill over the last nearly three weeks with heavy snow - we just don't get that kind of weather normally....
Thank you! It's not my Christmas dress sadly as there's no way it would make it here on time - the weather has been so bad here we haven't had a regular post for around two weeks so I'm still waiting for loads of things to arrive!
One of these will be my Christmas Day dress - my husband got...
Thank you OneAndOnly and congrats on moving in together - every happiness to you both!
