Death on the Nile

[poison-taffeta.livejournal.com]

I spent a week on a Nile Cruise at the start of July, and although the boat itself certainly was hardly Agatha Christie, I thought I'd dress the part anyway. Here are some of my outfits.




At the temple of Hapshepsut, Thebes.


I dressed for dinner every evening.




Dressed down for a stroll in the Old Cataract Hotel gardens, Aswan - features in Death on the Nile but currently closed for restoration.


Luxor Temple. That white dress is 1920s vintage.


In lady-explorer mode at the pyramids, Cairo.


I'd bought my dad a proper panama for the trip.

Hope you enjoy!

Ohhh, lovely! And what a fabulous trip - I like the long black gown. Where did you get it?

That is awesome! You did a great job of looking fashionably 20s and not at all costume-y. Gorgeous, thanks for posting:)

Most excellent. Your look reminds me a bit of Enchanted April.

Um, love! You look utterly, utterly fantastic. And I agree with what evenloversdrown said - you look very flapper-esque, yet still quite modern!

You look fabulous. Dame Agatha would love it.
