I love love love all things Marie Antoinette. When I was 5 or 6 I drew her on napkins and on the back of my elementary progress reports. Last Halloween, I did my best job to embody her. She was the epitome of high fashion in an effortless, i-don't-care-what-you-think way. She was a sweet combination of unruly naivete' and utter, untouchable style. I want to be Marie. Or at least dress like her. And run around. In a French field. Eating cake of course. And drinking champagne. And painting my friends under a chandelier-lit tent. Stars reflecting off my jewels. The painting on the left was done by me and the other is a portrait of Marie's best friend done by Maira Kalman. Enjoy the decadence.
