The history behind the color OCHRE

When the ochre mineral was found in England, it became very important prat of the fishing industry. The purpose was to protect the canvas from seaweater, not picturesque.

One of the French Revolution’s most controversial figures – Marie Antoinette is the subject of much speculation and controversy to this day – 220 years after her death. Here at Holzweiler we are intrigued by this mysterious figure whom some blame for the fall of the House of Bourbon and others label as a mere victim of her times. Despite all of the drama and intrigue surrounding her name, there is no doubt Marie Antoinette was a style and fashion leader and her creativity was years ahead of her contemporaries.

Ochre was a popular coloring in France during the time of the French Empire, and many French citizens living in foreign colonies would import a great deal of ochre clay from France to make their new lands feel like home. As a result, after the period of French colonization ended, ochre became associated with repression and fell out of favor. With the advent of synthetic dyes, ochre mining nearly stopped altogether. Recently, however, natural ochre paint has seen something of a comeback as an upscale house paint option, and this season also in fashion!

Tons of love from Costume Magazine May Issue

I have a very specific way of reading magazines.

I don't know where it started, but I have some bizarre steps i go through...

First, whenever I get a new magazine, I HAVE to be the first one to open it! There is just something about a brand new magazine...I can't explain it. Simple pleasure I suppose.

Next, I go through the entire magazine, and "dog-ear" or bookmark each page I want to look at more in depth. Once I have gone through cover to cover, then I go back through to all of my bookmarks and really read through them.

However, at work when I go through magazines, I always bookmark pages that our brands are on, and then go back through and look at them more in depth when I scan them all.....

Today, when going through Costume, I realized I had quite a few bookmarks!

I love when that happens!

Useful Life Trick Improved Upon

I recently saw a thing online that said in order to ensure that you're getting enough water everyday, you should wear 8 rubber bands (or however many you need) on one wrist, and each time you drink a glass of water, you move one rubber band to the other wrist.
