The rules state that you must tag people to take up the challenge, but, well, she didn't tag me - no, I saw this and thought it was such a good idea, I'd join in, too, so I hope she doesn't mind!

The Beau Monde Gallery: Happy Olympic Friday!
http://beaumondegallery.blogspot.com/2012/07/happy-olympic-friday.html
Friday, 27 July 2012. Captured at my local train station on a glorious Summer's day (yes, really! The preparations have been made and the waiting is over: today is the day that the London 2012 Summer Olympic Games officially opens. To everybody involved in whatever capacity, I wish the very best of luck, and for myself and the rest of us spectating, I wish a truly jaw-dropping Opening Ceremony and an exciting two weeks of sport. Does it become almost easier to criticise than to celebrate? The Olympic Gam...

The Beau Monde Gallery: August 2012

Wednesday, 22 August 2012. A Costume Drama with the Downton Abbey Cast. As well as being some of the heaviest monthly publications you'll buy all year, the September issues of the glossy fashion. Magazines are dripping with eye candy. After summer spreads advocating the lightest beach wear, September's autumn/winter. Previews are a heady assault on the senses, rich with colour and texture. The fashion editorials are also often spectacular. Too) dressed and made up to ethereal perfection, in a provocative...

Tuesday, 29 November 2011. History Lover's Gift Guide: The Nineteenth Century. About this time last year, I blogged about eighteenth century themed gifts.

The Beau Monde Gallery: September 2012
http://beaumondegallery.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 19 September 2012. Suited for Winter: Prada Menswear 2012. Gary Oldman, Jamie Bell, Garrett Hedlund and Willem Dafoe for Prada. Prada's Autumn/Winter 2012 Menswear campaign, shot by David Sims, makes me very happy for a number of reasons. Firstly, it features some of my most favourite actors, and secondly, they look sharply turned out. But there's a third reason, too: Messrs Oldman et al. The key points of the collection:. Men About Town: A 1909 Harrods Advertisement. Again, double breasted, l...

The Beau Monde Gallery: Shakespeare & St. George
http://beaumondegallery.blogspot.com/2012/04/shakespeare-st-george.html
Monday, 23 April 2012. Shakespeare and St. George. Today is St. George's Day, and beautifully coinciding with it is the birthday of William Shakespeare. So, what could be more fitting than a Shakespeare quote about England? Well, nothing - except for maybe a few English photos to go with it. Happy St. George's Day, and Happy Birthday, Bill! This royal throne of kings, this sceptred isle,. This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars. This other Eden, demi-paradise,. This fortress built by Nature for herself.
