I think there are many different variations of feminism and different determinations of what makes people feel happy.

OK - where does one find a nice slip these days? La Perla, yes, but they are generally a mix of Spanx and slip - splip. Tell me! Please!

Maybe they could get seaglass nails.

Was this a recent letter? I thought by the style tips it might be 7 to 10 years old.

finger nails - natural beds, white tips. A very clean and lovely (though slighed outmoded) look - especially for weddings.
