Excerpt from Creatures of Clay: A Novel
Luce and her aunt had arrived in London. Lady Eleanor was completely in her element, visiting dressmakers and consulting with modistes. She believed herself artistic, and took a commensurate pride in her presumably fine and accurate taste; in reality she only succeeded in being eccentric and extravagant. A deep colour, a tinge of gold, a barbaric combination, gave her extreme delight, and she indulged her predilections at her ease.
