--- 1 month ago --- 851 notes ---necklace worn in alexander mcqueen s/s 2007 collection. this particular necklace contains hair which ideas originally lay in the romantic era of jewellery. after the death of a lover, spouse or child; mourners would place the hair in the necklace or brooch and wear it often. in his early collections, when alexander mcqueen incorporated hair, it was often his own.
--- 1 month ago --- 1 note ---Perdita and Pongo can both be considered as Spanish words/forms, with Perdita (perdita) being “the lost one” and pongo a form of the verb poner (to put; 1st person sg. present indicative).
There’s really no reason (or is there?) why someone would choose to name a dog character after a part of a verb paradigm, that’s just weird, Perdita is a less confusing choice to me in that sense, but still, why is she the lost one in a story where a bunch of her puppy children are actually lost?
