I was watching Lost in Austen last night while chomping my way through gingerbread cookies home-baked by my bestie and swilling bubbly. While I was able to watch this crowd-pleasing mini-series with a critical eye (why is it women are convinced there will be a prince behind a beastly facade? why would you want to time travel back - let alone, stay - in a time where originality, independence and self-sufficiency was a pipe dream for women? etc etc), I was unable to stop myself from falling in love with the 180os hairstyles. I do love a good headband, bling and curls! Bugger the Darcy. Look at the hair!
