The Pharaoh’s Golden Parade
I know last year was crazy, but how did I miss this? Egypt built a new, more modern museum to help hold their expanding collection of antiquities. They had to move 22 mummified pharaohs and queens to their new home. Moving the fragile mummies in their special nitrogen-filled cases was a logistical nightmare. Moving so many high-profile terrorist targets in the Middle East was a security nightmare.
So what did they do? They glammed it to the heavens! They slathered a thick layer of classy pomp and circumstance over all those logistical and security needs and put on a spectacle that has to be seen to be believed.
I’m told that the morning after the parade, the music composer and many members of the crew got calls from the MCU and invitations to work on Moon Knight.
Now where can I find a cute commemorative toy car….
It’s funny. I assume terrorists would have targeted the mummies out of religious extremism, but in the end that threat inspired the Egyptians to show MORE reverence for the mummies than they otherwise might have done.
I do love how the answer to “how can we maintain security” was, “Get everyone in Egypt to watch this. Our enemies cannot hide from so many eyes at once.”
The full performance included simultaneous ballets at all the high-value archeological sites, AND the President of Egypt was on hand to greet the Pharaohs. They had ALL the high-risk bases covered.
High waist knickers are completely wasted
I know a lot of people love high waist styles, the vintage look the pin up evoking the support and suck it in properties but I think that designers done make them like they should.
Quite frankly, they are not made… high enough!
I love this pair from La Perla though, the Zig-Zag Soutache style is a signature collection from the brand that employs a very contemporary textile design and method.
These high waist lovelies are part of it and are so high I think they really mail it when it comes to the high waist style.
I find the very frequently seen high waist knickers far too…. Blocky and as a result extremely unflattering, I imagine they are in some cases very uncomfortable moving up and down as the wearing day progresses.
I believe a decent high waist pair like this sit in the narrow of the waist and wear so much better, anchoring themselves to the lower half of the torso and moving with the body rather than around it.
Come on let’s get it right
And the key to the success that I nearly forgot to mention… the button fastening at the back, it won’t work otherwise!

If there ever were such thing as a parenting words to live by (I’m sure there’s a phrase I’m forgetting), this is what I kept in mind raising my kids.
