We do sophistication, too

Or at least we used to once upon a time. Thankfully, however, we were very seldom invited to places where full evening dress was appropriate. It’s not that we would have been socially out of our depth in such surroundings and company. I certainly knew which knife to eat my peas with. Even when mixing with the nouveau-riche, I seldom went out of my way to take any pictures to prove that Emma and I could rise to the occasion. This is an exception, and I think Emma looks quite the lady. Given that such posh-dos were such a rarity, it’s odd that I can’t remember where we were actually going to justify the dressing up. Perhaps I had simply suggested that she put on her glad-rags to prove to posterity that she could look the part. Most of the photographs I was taking of Emma at this time showed her in a very different light, the brazen hussy.
