Ginchy Gal of the Week: Marie Antoinette

Sunday, February 12, 2012


Hey there princess!

The ginchy gal of the week is Marie Antoinette, who was Queen of France and had fashion sense that combined the talents of Edith Head and Lady Gaga. Ooh la la!

When this fourteen-year-old Austrian archduchess first arrived at the Palace of Versailles to become dauphine, she probably had no idea that she would become, to many, the Queen of Fashion.

Her life was turbulent at best, and she had to deal with the scandal of having an unconsummated marriage, war breaking out around her, the death of her mother, and that whole “let them eat cake” thing, all before she turned twenty five. However, when life gave her lemons, she arranged them in a fabulous bonnet atop her well-stacked head. We applaud you Marie!

Be Like Marie:

·      Eat your dessert first.
·      Don’t be afraid to be over-the-top.
·      Start a new trend.
·      Write letters using a feathered pen.
·      Cart your lap dog everywhere with you.
