When I was little, I never got into my mom’s makeup, or even her daytime clothes.  Instead, I went straight for the silk, the classic pumps, the vintage jewelry.  At my grandmother’s house, I’d run my fingers over the heirloom lingerie, handed down from generation to generation, treasured by every woman that received it.  While my day-to-day teenage wardrobe consisted of facial piercings and low-slung jeans (yes, really) by night I dreamed of red lipstick and film noir.

Only now, I know how to wear it…and give it a modern twist, to boot.
