TEXTBOOK

eloise was perhaps the luckiest child in the world, at least in my eyes.  according to her stories, she lived in the penthouse of the plaza hotel in new york.  i could think of worse living arrangements.  the books detailed her adventures with her turtle and her pug through the hotel and as you can imagine, the plaza can be a pretty exciting place for an inquisitive child.  had you known me in my childhood, you’d understand that next to my own house, the plaza was probably my next choice.  eloise’s clothing was pretty iconic, a black pinafore with a white ruffly shirt.  one has to wonder though, what would she be like when she grew older?  obviously a daughter of priveledge, her nature would certainly take her elsewhere in the city.  i imagine she would still have a very playful nature about her and manage that line of upper east side manner with youthful joie de vivre.  naturally, if that’s how you live you must dress the part.
