The Silver Lining

A detail as small as red drapery lining can make a room. This actually reminds me of a photo The Sartorialist posted a while back, of a woman in a monochromatic outfit, back turned to the camera, the only color in the shot a sliver of red on the soles of her Louboutins.

And how fantastic is the decrepit canvas?

Also, thank you (thank you, thank you!!) to both Little Augury for listing (IN)DECOROUS TASTE as one of her "12 (new to me) blogs I love" (in great company, very humbling) and to Prêt à Porter P for making this the new "site of the moment."  I am extremely appreciative.
