Reading is Glamourous.

During my weekly perusal of Amazon, I came across this little gem of a book. It just came in the mail today and I am SO COMPLETELY READY to read it.

We all know I adore Marie Antoinette. In fact, I'm pretty sure I would have been her favorite at Versailles. We would have eaten bonbon's and bought shoes together. *sigh*. Why wasn't I born royal?

Anyway, "Queen of Fashion: What Marie Antoinette Wore To The Revolution" is full of pretty pictures of her gowns, and so far, seems to present a LUSH picture of the different fashions that MA was partial to.

I'll let you know how much I loved it when I finish.

Vive La France!

Marie Antionette and Chocolate. Love.

Marie Antoinette loved chocolate. She was a hot bitch and we would have been BFF's.

Back in the day, in her royal boudoir, M.A. had to take a lot of medications. Poor bitch, I know how you feel. She hated it, so the Royal Chemist Sulpice Debauve developed solid bonbons for her to take her meds with.

After the revolution in France, Debauve opened a chocolate shop. It is still operational today. You can buy the assortment above on their site, at www.debauveandgallais.com.

I want to eat Marie Antoinette Chocolates!!!
