Princess Elizabeth's mother - who styled herself "Elizabeth, the Queen Mother," after her daughter became Queen Elizabeth, had a fussy, overdressed sense of fashion. Her hats were generally broadbrimmed, trimmed in lace or swaths of chiffon, or piled high with feathers. Her neckline was often V-shaped and adorned with her trademark triple strand of pearls. Her dresses were feminine, flirty, and accented by her fabuous jewelry. As she aged, she dressed in fruity colors like pink, lime, and yellow - with her dresses and hats often all the same color. Her girlish style, perfect complexion, and constant smiles suggested a sweetness and wholesomeness that made her extremely popular at home and abroad. The Queen Mother, nee Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, died in her sleep in 2002 at the age of 101.

Julie Andrews had played the lead in the Broadway play but producer Jack Warner wanted Audrey Hepburn as Eliza Doolittle for his film. Warner's film was to cost him $5 million. Audrey was well-known, talented, and her films never lost money. He wanted Audrey, not Julie. It caused quite a flap in the movie industry, with many feeling Julie Andrews should have had the role. Julie Andrew was then cast as Mary Poppins. That year, Audrey was snubbed at the Academy Awards, not even being nominated for her "My Fair Lady" performance. Julie Andrews won the Best Actress Oscar for "Mary Poppins."https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/my_fair_lady_poster.jpgMy_fair_lady_posterThe 1964 film musical "My Fair Lady" captured 8 Academy Awards, including Best Picture. 2014-08-01T23:38:10+00:00monthlyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/2014/04/11/my-fair-lady-that-ascot-dress/https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/ah-in-ascot-dress-seated-mfl.jpgAH in Ascot dress, seated MFLAudrey Hepburn as Eliza Doolittle at the Royal Ascot horse races.

the photograph is Queen Mary (1867-1953), grandmother of Queen Elizabeth II. Queen Mary was a manic collector of jewelry and other fine pieces. During the reign of her husband, King George V (1865-1936), she vastly expanded the Royal Collection, often from the houses of friends. Mary is shown here wearing “the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara” which is also referred to as “Granny’s Tiara,” which she gave to Elizabeth in 1947, the year she married Prince Philip.2022-09-10T16:17:46+00:00monthlyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/2009/03/20/mary-lincoln-goes-goth/https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/queen-victoria-on-fyvie-with-john-brown-at-balmoral-1863-photo-by-george-w-wilson.jpgqueen-victoria-on-fyvie-with-john-brown-at-balmoral-1863-photo-by-george-w-wilsonThe recently widowed Queen Victoria wearing mourning clothes at Balmoral, Scotland, 1863. She is riding "Fyvie" and is accompanied by her faithful servant John Brown. Her husband, Prince Albert died in December of 1861 of typhoid fever or perhaps cancer of the stomach. For forty more years, the rest of Victoria's life, she wore black widow's weeds. Suspicion was aroused by Victoria's partiality to John Brown as a servant; most of the members of the Royal Household referred to him as "the Queen's stallion" and defamatory pamphlets referred to her a "Mrs. Brown." A 1997 film with Judy Dench titled "Mrs. Brown" was about the possible love affair.https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/mary-todd-lincoln-in-mourning-clothes-1863.jpgmary-todd-lincoln-in-mourning-clothes-1863Mary Todd Lincoln in mourning clothes, 1863. Even during the period in 1862 and 1863 when Mrs. Lincoln was in mourning for her son Willie and wore only black, she managed to go further into debt for new clothes. By 1864, she told Elizabeth Keckley: "The President glances at my rich dresses and is happy to believe that the few hundred dollars that I obtain from him supply all my wants. I must dress in costly materials. The people scrutinize every article that I wear with critical curiosity... If he is elected, I can keep him in ignorance of my affairs, but if he is defeated, then the bills will be sent."3 Only on January 1, 1865 did she completely shed her mourning attire.https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/a-victorian-brooch-of-jet-and-hair.jpga-victorian-brooch-of-jet-and-hairan example of Victorian mourning jewelry, a brooch of black jet and woven human hair2014-04-30T19:01:06+00:00monthlyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/2009/03/25/queen-victoria-in-the-blue-room-with-a-bust/https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/bust-of-prince-albert-minton-co-from-the-original-sculpture-portraits-by-carlo-marochetti-1805-67-england-original-sculpture-1851-made-1862-v-a-museum.jpgbust-of-prince-albert-minton-co-from-the-original-sculpture-portraits-by-carlo-marochetti-1805-67-england-original-sculpture-1851-made-1862-v-a-museumBust of Prince Albert, Minton & Co. from the original sculpture portraits by Carlo Marochetti (1805 - 67), England, Original sculpture 1851, made 1862.https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/queen-victoria-and-prince-albert-photo-john-jabez-edwin-mayall-england-1861-v-and-a-museum.jpgqueen-victoria-and-prince-albert-photo-john-jabez-edwin-mayall-england-1861-v-and-a-museumBritish Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, 18612014-04-30T19:00:34+00:00monthlyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/2009/03/26/sojourner-truth-aint-i-a-woman/https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/am-i-not-a-woman-abolition-poster.jpgam-i-not-a-woman-abolition-posterAbolition Movement posterhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/sojourner-truth-photo-by-mathew-brady-an-albumen-silver-print-c1864.jpgsojourner-truth-photo-by-mathew-brady-an-albumen-silver-print-c1864Sojourner Truth (1797-1883), photograph by Mathew Brady c.18642014-04-30T19:00:09+00:00monthlyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/2009/03/31/the-strange-case-of-patty-hearst-part-1/https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/p-hearst-with-fiancee-steven-weed.jpgp-hearst-with-fiancee-steven-weedPatricia Hearst shown with then fiancee Steven Weedhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/patty-hearst-from-a-symbionese-liberation-army-publicity-photo.jpgpatty-hearst-from-a-symbionese-liberation-army-publicity-photoPatty Hearst (b. 1954) from a Symbionese Liberation Army photo2014-04-30T18:59:18+00:00monthlyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/2009/04/02/president-barack-and-michelle-obama-give-queen-elizabeth-ii-an-ipod/https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/queen-elizabeth-prince-philip-and-the-obamas-april-2009.jpgqueen-elizabeth-prince-philip-and-the-obamas-april-2009The Obamas Visit Buckingham Palace.

The Duke and Duchess of Windsor visited Germany in 1937 before WWII broke out across Europe. They were outspoken supporters of Nazi fascism and suspected of spying for Germany. At the beginning of the war, the Windsors were whisked out of France to safe haven in the Bahamas, where the Duke served out the war years as governor. There he could do Britain little harm - and he was less likely of being kidnapped by the Germans who were reportedly interested in installing him as a puppet king in a conquered Great Britain under German rule.https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/duke-and-duchess.jpgDuke and Duchessthe Duke and Duchess of Windsor at home with their precious pug dogs.

Special Exhibit: "Blithe Spirit: The Windsor Set" The decoration of sequined fireworks on this evening dress, which was worn by the Countess Madeleine de Montgomery to Lady Mendl's seventy-fifth birthday party in 1939, is a fitting climax to le beau monde of the 1930s. It was the end of an era when, on Sept. 1, 1939, Parisians heard an early-morning radio announcemen from Herr Hitler in German, at once translated into French, that "as of this moment, we are at war with Poland." The thirties were over; the Second World War had begun.https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/duke-and-duchess-of-w-on-wedding-day.jpgDuke and Duchess of W on wedding dayWallis Warfield marries the former King Edward VIII of Britain on June 3, 1937, in France. The day before the wedding, the Prince's brother, the new British king, George VI, sent him a letter granting him and Wallis new titles: the Duke and Duchess of Windsor. The titles were hollow; there was no dominion of Windsor to rule. Even worse: the King's letter contained a bomb - the Prince, despite his abdication of the throne, could continue to "hold and enjoy...the title, style or attribute of Royal Highness," but his bride, the Duchess, could not, nor could any of their offspring. She, though a duchess, was denied what her sister-in-laws would enjoy - that her name would be preceded by the magic initials 'H.R.H.' "What a damnable wedding present!" Windsor shouted.

The panther is crouched in a life like pose on a large perfect round cabochon star sapphire weighing 152.35 carats. This panther pin was one of the Duchess' favorite pieces which she frequently wore. It created an envy among other jewelry collectors and a demand for Cartier to produce more panther pieces. Today, the panther is a Cartier icon. The Duchess of Windsor's animal pieces became her signature.https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/duchess-of-windsor-in-platinum-dress.jpgDuchess of Windsor in platinum dressThe Duchess of Windsor filled her empty life by buying expensive clothes and getting the Duke to buy her costly jewels. She was always immaculately dressed and never casual. In 1935, she made the Paris Couture best-dressed list and remained there for 40 years. 2015-05-30T16:16:51+00:00monthlyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/2009/10/02/1936-the-year-of-the-three-british-kings/https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/wallis.jpgWallisWallis Warfield Simpson, Duchess of Windsor (1896-1986). Wallis' second husband Ernest Simpson couldn't keep her happy. She was accustomed to a grander style of living than he was capable of providing. She found that way of life with the then Prince of Wales, who ascended to the British throne in 1936 as King Edward VIII. The King was obsessed with Wallis, showering with jewels and clothes and taking her on expensive cruises - while she was still married to Mr. Simpson. Wallis had cast her spell.https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/queen-mum.jpgQueen Mum"The Queen Mum" in later years. Queen Elizabeth II's mother died in 2002 at the age of 101.

Included in their possessions were these pug pillows arranged at the foot of the Duchess' bed. Although Wallis, the Duchess, was fastidious about cleanliness, she allowed the pugs to sleep in the bed with her. "“Paper money for the Duchess was either ordered new and crisp from a bank or wash cleaned and ironed by the housemaids; coins were always washed. Each evening, just before dinner was served, two maids could be found carrying bedsheets through the halls by their corners; the bed linens, having just been ironed, were destined for the rooms of the Duke and Duchess. Wallis could not stand wrinkles in her bed….Once the bed was made, a plastic sheet was spred atop the satin eiderdown so that the pugs could climb onto the bed with Wallis; there she would feed them the hand-baked dog biscuits prepared fresh each day by her chef. Usually the pugs slept on the bed with her, although the Duke’s favorite might disappear through the boudoir to his own spot at the foot of his master’s bed.” The Duchess of Windsor: The Uncommon Life of Wallis Simpson by Greg Kinghttps://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/d-and-d-pugs.pngD and D pugsValet in livery of the Bois de Bologne, Paris, home of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor with pugs Mr. Disraeli, Mr. Chu, Trooper, Imp, and Davy Crocketthttps://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/d-and-d-with-pug.pngD and D with pugThe Duchess and Duke of Windsor with one of their beloved pugs. https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/the-d-and-d-of-w-1957.jpgThe D and D of W 1957The Duchess and Duke of Windsor, New York, 1957.

At the beginning of British Queen Victoria's reign, many children worked in factories for cheap wages. Some children were as young as five. Few questioned the practice of employing children as there were no laws to protect them.

Jessie Garon was the twin brother of Elvis Presley who was born and died on January 8, 1935 in the Presley's two room shack in Tupelo, Mississippi.

It also marks the adoration of the Magi, and many cultures celebrate it as almost a second Christmas Eve. It marks the start of the Carnival Season which ends on Mardi Gras. Beginning in Tudor England (1485-1603), Twelfth Night was often commemorated with a large festive party - lots of cake and ale - to mark the end of the Winter Festival. William Shakespeare wrote his joyous comedy, "Twelfth Night, or, What You Will," (1600) to be performed at Twelfth Night feasts. The illustration shown here is William Harrison Ainsworth's Mervyn Clithroe's "Twelfth Night Party by 'Phiz'" (c 1840). https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/twelfth-night.jpgTwelfth Night"Twelfth Night, or, What You Will," Act II, Scene iii: (l to r) Feste the Clown, Sir Toby Belch, and Sir Andrew Aguecheek whoop it up with a drink and a song, rousing the household in the wee hours of the morning. 2014-04-30T16:17:07+00:00monthlyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/2010/05/28/prince-william-is-indeed-his-highness/https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/queen-e-ii-with-family.jpgQueen E II with familyQueen Elizabeth II is shown in this 1960s era photo with husband Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, and her young children, l to r: Edward, Andrew, Charles, and Anne. https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/princess-diana.jpgprincess-dianaDiana, Princess of Waleshttps://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/kate-middleton-june-2008-order-of-the-garter.jpgPicture by Harry Page, The Daily Mirror.Kate Middleton (black hat) is shown with Prince Henry of Wales and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall (white hat), at the June 16, 2008 installation of Kate's boyfriend Prince William of Wales in the Order of the Garter.https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/edward-i.jpgEdward IThe Great Seal of Edward I who served as the British monarch from 1272-1307https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/queen-victoria.jpgQueen Victoriahttps://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/british-royal-family-height-wills.jpgBritish Royal Family height Wills2014-07-02T00:37:34+00:00monthlyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/2010/06/02/fergie-di-royal-daredevils/https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/duchess-of-york-influence-peddling.jpgDuchess of York influence peddlingAn image made from video shows the Duchess of York apparently selling access to Prince Andrew for 500,000 British pounds to an undercover reporter from the UK tabloid, "News of the World."https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/the-duke-and-duchess-of-y-1986.jpgThe Duke and Duchess of Y 1986This commemorative stamp was issued in Great Britain in 1986 to commemorate the Royal Wedding of Prince Andrew to Miss Sarah Ferguson.

(1937)https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/guernica-photo.jpgguernica photoGuernica, Spain, after the April 26, 1937, bombing by Nazis. It was market day and the quiet village was filled with women and children. There were few men left in Guernica, as most were off fighting in the Spanish Civil War against Franco. When the town caught fire, women and children who tried to escape the inferno by taking refuge in the outskirts of town found themselves trapped by bombed-out bridges and roads. Others were picked off by Nazi gunners diving low in their aircraft to kill them. The Nazis supported the rebel forces of General Franco to test out war tactics and weapons. Although there was a military target outside Guernica, a munitions factory, it was left unscathed by the April 1937 bombing. It is believed that the bombing was used to intimidate those in opposition to Franco's impending rule.https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/image-la-femme-aux-pigeons-1930.jpgImage La femme aux pigeons 1930Woman With Pigeons, by Pablo Picasso, 1930.https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/image-0-pigeons-in-barcelona1.jpgimage 0 Pigeons in BarcelonaPigeons of every size, color, and description mass in a square in Barcelona, Spain.https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/picasso-in-underwear-1957.jpgPicasso in Underwear 1957"Picasso in Underwear", photo by David Douglas Duncan, 1957.

She took into account that her wedding reception was to be held in the Picture Gallery in Buckingham Palace. The room has high ceilings so she chose a cake that towered but was not too tall or thin. She wanted something with presence. Architectural elements in the room, for instance, garlands on the walls, were reproduced loosely on the fourth tier piping: roses, acorns, ivy leaves, apple blossom and bridal rose. The cakemaker would not reveal her exact recipe but did reveal some of the cake ingredients: a range of produce from dried fruits such as raisins and sultanas to walnuts, cherries, grated oranges and lemon, French brandy and free-range eggs and flour.: https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/will-kate-wedding-dress-display-ii.jpgWill & Kate wedding dress display IIhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/will-kate-cartier-halo-tiara.jpgWill & Kate Cartier Halo tiaraAmong the items displayed at the Queen's London residence include the Cartier Halo tiara, worn by Kate Middleton on her wedding day.

The Tonkawas became a destitute culture, scavenging for food. They befriended the Anglo-Texas settlers who came to Central Texas, relying on them for food, supplies, and an alliance against their Indian enemies. The Tonkawas wore little clothing. The women went topless and tattoed themselves extensively. They painted black stripes on their mouths, noses, and backs, and painted concentric circles around their breasts.2021-09-23T16:44:45+00:00monthlyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/2010/02/22/a-little-remedy-against-indian-arrows/https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/comanche-war-party-on-the-march-fully-equipped-george-catlin-1846-1848.jpgComanche War Party on the March, Fully Equipped George Catlin, 1846-1848"Comanche War Party on the March, Fully Equipped," oil painting by George Catlin, 1846-1848.

McClernand in an 1862 photo by Alexander Gardner following the Battle of Antietam. Pinkerton was the head of Union Intelligence Services then. It was alleged that, in 1861, his Pinkerton Detective Agency uncovered an assassination plot against the president in Baltimore on his way to the inauguration. Thanks to Pinkerton's warning, Lincoln changed his travel itinerary and the plot was foiled. On the 3-story Chicago building of the Pinkerton Detective Agency, their logo, a black-and-white eye, says "We Never Sleep." This was the origin of the slang term for detective "private eye." 2011-03-30T17:58:29+00:00monthlyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/2009/01/30/the-ghost-at-the-cloudcroft-lodge/https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/caysaya1cas27gthe-lodge-photo.jpgcaysaya1cas27gthe-lodge-photoThe Lodge at Cloudcroft, NMhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/marleys-ghost.jpgmarleys-ghostJacob Marley's Ghost from A Christmas Carol by Dickenshttps://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/rebecca-of-the-lodge.jpgrebecca-of-the-lodge"Rebecca" https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/the-lodge.jpgthe-lodge2023-08-13T03:11:56+00:00monthlyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/2009/03/03/abraham-lincoln-the-omen/https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/lincoln_alexander-gardner_feb-5-1865.jpglincoln_alexander-gardner_feb-5-1865Abraham Lincoln photographed by Alexander Gardner, February 5, 1865https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/lincoln_-m-brady_feb-27_1860.jpglincoln_-m-brady_feb-27_1860Abraham Lincoln photographed by Mathew Brady, February 27, 1860https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/seance2.jpgseance2Séances became popular during and after the Civil War as Americans longed to reconnect with their sons and fathers killed in the violence of the Civil Warhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/willie-lincoln.jpgwillie-lincolnWillie Lincoln2018-01-05T20:53:42+00:00monthlyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/2009/03/05/the-lincoln-assassination-premonition-dream-ii/https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/lincoln-harpers-november-26-1864.jpglincoln-harpers-november-26-1864https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/lincoln-drawing.jpglincoln-drawing2015-09-17T00:01:19+00:00monthlyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/2009/04/29/mao-had-dragon-breath/https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/maos-coffin.jpgmaos-coffinThe body of Mao Zedong rests in its crystal coffin.2010-05-24T19:50:29+00:00monthlyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/2009/12/28/new-photo-is-that-really-jfk-on-a-yacht-with-naked-women/https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/jfk-photo-on-yacht.jpgJFK photo on yachta never-before published photograph that appears to show John F.

Kathleen's 1944 marriage to Billy Harrington, the Marquess of Hartington, an Anglican, infuriated the intensely Catholic Rose Kennedy, who refused to attend the wedding. Widowed just four months later, Kathleen fell in love with a very married man, Peter Wentworth-Fitzwilliam, 8th Earl Fitzwilliam, and became his mistress. Rose was further incensed - because he, like Billy, wasn't a Catholic. Over her mother's objections, Kathleen and Peter planned to wed after his divorce. Instead, in a 1948 trip to the south of France, they both died in a plane crash. No one but Kathleen Kennedy Cavendish's father, Joseph P. Kennedy, attended her funeral in Devonshire, England, in the Cavendish family plot. It has been said that Rose Kennedy discouraged Kathleen's eight surviving siblings from attending the service of their sister. 2014-10-16T20:20:42+00:00monthlyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/2009/01/16/266/https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/frontal-lobotomy1.jpgfrontal-lobotomy1transorbital lobotomyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/frontal-lobotomy.jpgfrontal-lobotomytransorbital lobotomyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/dr-walter-freeman-lobotomist.jpgdr-walter-freeman-lobotomistDr. Walter Freeman, the ice pick lobotomist2013-03-28T20:29:29+00:00monthlyhttps://lisawallerrogers.com/2009/08/18/salvador-dali-cauliflowers-and-wetsuits/https://lisawallerrogers.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/salvador-dali_mae-wests-lips-sofa-1936_7.jpgSalvador Dali_Mae West's Lips Sofa 1936-37.
