Random Gorgeousness.


Hello me darlins
I am not early with the garden post, but it has dawned on me that when I started this (my second) blog I did promise  -

"a pot-pourri of bizarre random objects d'art from the dusty attic of my mind. There will be a good smattering of Divas, gayness, gorgeousness, history and music"

I have been rather amiss in fulfilling that promise. My one and only non-garden post was 'Bona Sparkles' back in  November 2018 click here to have a look

So without any more waffle, here are a few gems that caught me eye on my more recent trolls around the World Wide Web.


The modern ballet
 Grace Jones, 1978 by Kate Simon
 I would be happy to give him a hand
 Dolores del Rio by Edward Steichen 1929
The adorable David Tennant as Mr.Crowley
 Yves Saint Laurent  1971
 Rudolph Nureyev in his apartment on Quai Voltaire, Paris
 Jude Law, 1997 - photo by Lord Snowden
 Life is full of decisions
 Prince Eugenie of Greece necklace
 Jean Harlow in Dinner at Eight 1933
 Jacey Elthalion
 Nikos Siranides as "Querelle"
 Rod Stewart and Elton John, 1973
 The lovely Anthony Perkins - 1960
 Mick Jagger, 1968 by Cecil Beaton
Elevator doors; DuPont Building in Miami (1939),
 Inspecting the tiles for repair ?
 The very gorgeous Sal Mineo


And finally as it is Mid Summer's Day - a nice little gardening outfit

Well there tiz me lovelies
Hope you enjoyed having a look

TTFN

    1. Just a small sample of the jumble that you would find there.

  2. I adore looking at collection of pictures like this. I especially love the picture of Jean Harlow....my idea of the perfect boudoir day.

  6. Nurejew, der Prinz des Balletts, wurde von einem dekadenten und lustvollen Leben abgeschnitten. Er ruht bei seiner Liebe, Erik Bruhn.
    Nikos Siranides wäre perfekt für ein Querelle set in Piräus.
    Letztes Foto- José 'Pete' Martinez mit Stroh-sonnenhut von George Platt Lynes. Liebhaber des Ballettimpresarios Lincoln Kirstein, Muse von George Platt Lynes und anderen Männern.
    Der Stroh-sonnenhut war ein Geschenk eines älteren Liebhabers, mit dem Martinez posierte, um Kirstein eifersüchtig zu machen.

    1. Hallo Schatz. Ich freue mich sehr, dass es Ihnen Spaß gemacht hat, meine zufällige Auswahl an Fotos anzusehen.
      Vielen Dank für alle Informationen rund um den Strohhut. Ich wusste sicherlich nichts davon.

    1. Ich liebe Foto 3 auch, aber ich weiß nichts über Glory Holes. Ich dachte, er wäre da, um die kaputten Fliesen an der Wand zu reparieren. Früher waren die Bahnhöfe überall so und ich kann mich nicht erinnern, wann ich das letzte Mal eine Anakonda gesehen habe.
