Something Nasty in the Woodshed

Have you ever seen Cold Comfort Farm? I's one of my all time favourite movies (I know I have alot). It based on a book written in the late 1920's/early 1930's (two fashion periods I LOVE). The book is set in a futuristic late 1920's England(video phones are the bees knees) however the movie is set in the realistic late 1920's. It really is a must see full of zany characters, a family curse, a well endowed bull, and a rather handsome "embreo pilot", all surrounding the lead character of Flora Poste. It stars Kate Beckinsale, Rufus Sewell, Ian McKellen, and JoAnna Lumley(who is from Absolutly Fabulous and is Absolutly Fabulous!), Eileen Atkins, and Stephen Frye.

















So anyways I thought it would be fun to do this week's TDI based on Cold Comfort Farm. Please to enjoy:

I had far too much fun with this week's outfits. Flora first arrives and is greeted by a cart full of manuere, which she cleans out in style.

Why did we ever stop dressing so beautifully? Flora brings her cousin Elphine to the Birhtday Ball of Elphine's love, much to both her, and his family's chagrin.

As flora rearanges everyone's life, she manages to get in some time with her old Aunt Ada Doom, who reveals a suprise at Dick and Elphine's wedding.

okay and I know, but It was too much fun so here's what Flora leaves in, though it looks nothing like her outfit in the movie. I was just having far too much fun.
