Let's Live By These Words, Girls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



                                    Darlings, when it comes to Truman Capote's Swans, C.Z. Guest was one of my favorites.  Born as Lucy Douglas Cochrane, on February 19. 1920. she dominated the planet and  the social scene for 83 years.  She was of the Cochranes  of Boston, girls, but when she married Winston Frederick Churchill Guest on March 8, 1947, she was forevermore C.Z. Guest! (This overlooked her having technically been a chorus girl, having appeared in the "Ziegfeld Follies Of 1944.")  

                                      Of course she knew Babe, both Glorias (Guinness and Vanderbilt), Slim Keith, and all the other Swans. She was part of the whole "Answered Prayers" thing, who was as devastated as anyone by what Truman Capote had written.  Wait till you see what I eventually write, darlings!  I should go to Arizona soon, for Jodi Arias' retrial, I could be the next Dominick Dunne. Better than that Chris Mason, who, thankfully has vanished from sight.  He made Truman and I look butch!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                        But when it came to elegance, C.Z. Guest was one of the best. What a pleasure it would have been to have tea with her!


                                           And, speaking of tea, darlings, I will more to say about that, later. The place to be seen, having tea, bar none, is the St. Regis!  If you want to be a socialite, lambs, you simply have to go there.

                                             As elegantly dressed as C.Z. Guest, of course!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
