A Lady Detective in the 1920s

I got very excited by a new release from a store that I'm not normally a client of. Sometimes you see something in an event and can't wait to get yout hands on it, and that's one of the things that I love about the SL shopping events. There are lots of stores brought together that you may not regularly use, but an item is released and everything changes... It was like that today with the amazing new release from Salt & Pepper at Equal10... A look that takes us back in time, to when glamour was jazzy coated with glitz...

The glitz and glamour of the 1920s, the era of the Great Gatesby, was one of highs and lows... Prohibition and mobsters, jazz and swing, it's an era that oozes decadence, especially when you see it represented in the media... Now, I know Salt Perry - owner of Salt & Pepper - has based her latest creation on the great Gatesby, but my current addiction is a tv crime series set in 1920's Australia called "Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries"... She's a lady detective in a time when men were still considered the stronger sex, and with her companion and household staff, she is out to right the wrongs and discover the truth... It's a BRILLIANT series, with some strong female characters, a little bit of steam between Miss Fisher and the detective, and lots of action too... Armed with her little gold pistol, and closing her cases with a Whiskey on the Rocks - like the ones from the Whiskey Tray set from Junk Food - this divalicious detective leaves Jessica Fletcher in the dust...
