"The young girl stood beside me. I / Saw not what her young eyes could see: / - A light, she said, not of the sky / Lives somewhere in the Orange Tree" - John Shaw Neilson, The Orange Tree
This darkly shimmering dress was made for midnight strolls through orange groves & spinning through the candlelit halls of an abandoned manse. There's an animal jamboree happening all over me: a ram's head ring, a tortoise belt & a faux furry beast of a vest. Color me happy in a pair of pink patent leather slippers - they escorted me around town while I crossed some errands off my list & will partner well with tonight's party dress.
