Darrell Finds De Rigueur Dans Debenhams.

Darrell tells me that according to Hugh, his best friend and mentor who lives the showbiz life in Notting Hill, the future is well and truly “flocked  …….
De rigueur 1
……… with strong animal undertones!!  Stags heads and owls are soooooooooooooo last year darrrrrrling, and it’s time to bring on the pelicans, poodles and buffalo!  Nothing …. will be tooooooo ridiculous to bung a lightshade on!”
de rig 2
……. and naturally Darrell has soaked it all up like an empty sponge  ……
de rig 3
……. however so I have had put my foot down and told him with uncharacteristic, robust firmness that it doesn’t matter how de rigueur, tres chic or fabuuuuuulooooso it is, flock will continue to be a stranger chez Castle Greysquirrel …………………
de rig 4
…… and even if “….. Every one, but everyone,  in Notting Hill darling,  has a buffalo head in their en-suite”  it ain’t happening in Wolverhampton!”

Which is it to be? A "buffalo head in their en-suite” or a horse's head in their bed.
Decisions, decisions.

Poodles, pelicans, and buffalo.....I think I will have to be non-de rigueur with this newest London-Notting Hill chic.....especially not into animal heads on the wall!......wonder if a lamp base with a dog statue would be chic enough; I could manage that......unfortunately non-de rigueur, Dianne
