The age of high society in the United States was remarkably brief but also glorious. The names of the families of "people-we-know" - from Astor to Vanderbilt, McCormick to Palmer, Cabot to Whitney - and the places they called home - Fifth Avenue, Newport, Euclid Avenue in Cleveland, Prairie Avenue in Chicago, Delmonico's ballroom - still evoke glittering images of style, wealth, and often-outrageous show. The era of "The 400," with all its glamour gentility, and pretension, is marvelously evoked in this book. Top Drawer is affectionate and ironic by turns, pointing out, for example, that the American elite were the greatest art patrons since the Renaissance, yet recounting scandals and foibles with a knowing eye that never loses sight of the ruthless quest for power that underlay the gilded surface. "The hoi polloi get their own back at the hoity-toity in Top Drawer, Mary Cable's witty social history of the Gilded age of Astors, Vanderbilts, Van Rensselaers, Havemeyers, Chatfield-Taylors, et al. A stylish performance . . . . Cable's polished prose, cool wit, and extensive research make illuminating history and grand entertainment."

Amazing Jewelry Travel Case
I bought this jewelry case for traveling on a cruise and I absolutely LOVE IT! When I purchased it I didn’t know if it would actually fit all the jewelry I wanted to bring but this box definitely impressed me! It fit all my regular jewelry plus more bc you know us woman love to coordinate with our outfits lol the case/box is sturdy! It didn’t break or even dent throughout my travels. It comes with different pieces to help organize and separate jewelry but it is removable if needed which I had to do bc one of my necklaces is really big. The case fit perfectly in my carry on luggage and didn’t take up much room at all which helped me a lot. I got the black case and I just love how simple and sleek it looks. This is definitely a must have if you need to travel with jewelry and are concerned about things getting damaged, this case keeps them safe and it’s definitely a great value for your money!
