Jean Shrimpton aka 'The Shrimp' was one of the top models of swinging London back in the '60's, a Cindy Crawford of her era. She now runs Abbey Hotel B&B in Cornwall, England with her hubby, Michael Cox. I didn't know which photo would look the best, so I put them both in...lol..and yes, her neckpiece was off-center in the reference photo :-)

With such attention to detail Karen I for one wouldn't have considered even for a moment that the 'neckpiece' was anywhere other than where you intended it to be. Flawless perfection. XXNelly van Nieuwenhuijzen 10 Oct 2007
