1920′s Style Tips to Steal!

by Carly Jacobs

* Match the colour of your handbag to your shoes and belt. How quaint.

* Wear Chanel No. 5 – the signature fragrance of Marilyn Monroe created in 1921. She wore it to bed… and nothing else.

* Drink whisky with ice and paint your fingernails and lips blood red.

* Wear as many bangles that will fit on your wrist and carry a clutch bag. A delicious beaded one with nothing more than a lipstick inside.

* Wear lingerie in gelati colours with little fruity garters.

* Discover Egypt. Tutankhamen was the subject of fashion fascination and his head adorned many a clutch bag in the 20′s.

* Use rouge.

* Buy your man a cape and have him wrap it around you on chilly street light-lit nights.

Love Lady Smaggle

Heiress to the Cunard family (they made money from shipping and railways I think), socialite and socialist, she edited the Left Review for a while before going into publishing, where she was one of the first to publish – get this – Beckett.
She was totallly rad and awesome. She also banged the most amazing array of modernists – TS Eliot, Tristan Tzara, Wyndham Lewis… the girl was red hot. I love her.
