I think that these things are all defined under the term 'accessories'!
I think this is beautiful:
It's an umbrella by the designer Frank Usher. I wish someone would buy if for me for Christmas but it's eighty quid which is umbrella extortion and cannot really be justified. Even, sadly, by me.
I'm really interested in accessories, but in particular jewellery. Did you know that the Victorians (who were very repressed about their emotions) used to give each other jewellery containing tiny different gemstones, and that if you took the first letter of each stone it would spell out a secret message for the person who received it? So you could have one with, say, Lapis, Opal, Variscite and Emerald for LOVE. Randomly and somewhat dangerously they used to use Uranium in their spelling gemstones; I wonder how many people suddenly died from bizarre sicknesses? |
