Have you ever seen "The Seven Year Itch"? There is no other woman alive, past or present, who could have played The Girl the way Marilyn Monroe did. As the upstairs neighbor, she shows up on the downstair's married guy's doorstep with huge wide eyes when her tomato plant falls from her balcony onto his. Eventually she runs upstairs to get a bottle of champagne that she bought to drink in the tub on her birthday and has been sitting in the fridge with her potato chips and undies ever since. Just magnificent, she dips her potato chips into the glass of champagne and says, "This is a wonderful party." When's the last time you changed into a cocktail dress to have a drink because you couldn't imagine drinking champagne in matador pants? When's the last time you said with any credibility at all, "You may not believe this but people keep falling hopelessly in love with me..."? Who could get away with that and not sound conceited? A woman who dips potato chips into champagne. A woman who wears pink bubbles at four in the afternoon. Frosted bubble gum and baby pink glass bubbles with filligree caps in silver separated by faux pink pearls. A delightful choker and bracelet that has no giggling rival, this is the sort of innocent playfulness that is so Marilyn in that movie. Choker has an adjustable hook clasp so it varies a few inches in how long you want to wear it but the longest will be 17". The bracelet has a hinged clasp and will fit up to a 6.5" wrist. Then, if you're so inclined to stand over the subway grate and let your dress fly up in the air, you can always say, "Isn't it delicious?". Unsigned and in excellent condition. sold |
