Did you know...
- it was once considered rude to apologize to the hostess after
breaking her Ming vase?
- women once enhanced their nostrils by applying red
lipstick to them?
- our foremothers were warned that bobbing their hair
would cause it to fall out?
You'll find these
"tips" in Advice from the Attic, along with advice for
playing dumb around men, cultivating the perfectly placid stare, putting
mutton suet in your hair, cutting your eyelashes, and much more!!
Advice from the Attic is
a collection of excerpts cultivated from sources of the mid-19th-
through the early 20th-centuries. Sometimes absurd, often astonishing,
and usually downright hilarious, these quotes give today's woman a new
perspective on generations past.
Peppered with authentic period
illustrations, photographs and advertisements, Advice from the Attic makes
a perfect gift for every woman of any age! |
