Ooooh. Ooh. Well, the Liberty belt buckle is definitely on my Christmas wish list!!

And the boots. And the jacket...

I think asking for the bag might be pushing it a bit though....

Inspired by the Dolce & Gabbana shoes and the Sonia Rykiel sweater as an homage to Elsa Schiaparelli (one of my all-time favourite icons...!)

Elsa is one of my icons as well! How I adore her!
I've had this lobster in my "closet" for sometime in hopes of making a look for her. I thought I would share because what you have made can't be beat!
I have a pair of Shiaparelli stockings that are unworn and in a fuschia pink silk pouch. I keep them in my drawer just to look at them....she even made the most simple item a work of art. Clap clap! Great job!
Oh my, i really want that coat. Wonderful styling.
