Notes

A friend saw through my 'jokes' about dressing up as Marilyn Monroe and sent me a full costume. Pearls, gloves, cigarette holder, blouse and skirt. The first skirt I owned. I couldn't make it suit me at first. I wore it again years later when I was more me and I was BEAUTIFUL. Thank you, Giulia, you made it all easier
