Me circa 1980s
I am a theater person. That becomes abundantly obvious when you are around me for a brief while. I am tall, I am larger than life and I love glamour! Ever since I acquired my Great Grandmother's costume jewelry collection as a teenager, I have had an incredible fascination and passion with pulchritude. Reveling in my inherited treasure of antique baubles, I love wearing things that sparkle. Pinned to my denim jacket is always some delicious, flashy, rhinestone extravaganza. Never limiting my fashion by appropriate standards, any excuse to be flashy and over the top is how I always present myself. It should be noted that I love flea markets and places where I can sift through glass and crystal brooches and earrings. I have managed to collect some wonderful pieces including a coveted pair of mint Eisenburg Ice earrings. When ever I wear my vintage sparkle, I feel regal and glamourous and so very confident. In fact, I prefer the faux baubles to the real thing. Diamonds are beautiful but often unwearable because of their value. Who wants to worry themselves sick over a bunch of rocks, keep them safe in a vault when you can have so much fun with crystals? They sparkle just as much and with the right amount of diva attitude and flair, never seem fake at all.
