50 Things Every British Girl Should Have. I’m not sure that I’m on board with these suggestions. A beret? Gold hoop earings? No, hoop earnings have to be silver. Spanx? Oh, probably.
A quick list from me:
1. Pair of grey pants that fit perfectly. 2. Short plaid skirt. (I have a great skirt from Isaac MIzrahi’s Target collection with leather straps.) 3. A pair of patent leather pumps with lots of straps. 4. Retro multi-strand, pearl necklace. 5. Good eyebrows. 6. A big jangly charm bracelet. 7. Black turtleneck. 8. Opaque black stockings. 9. Jeans with holes in the knees. 10. A month ago, I would have said Tina Fey glasses, but not so sure any more. 11. Riding boots. 12. Chuck Taylors.
Apt. 11d 
I’m at 7 out of 12 — and that’s only if I can get credit for naturally great eyebrows, jeans with naturally occurring holes, and my big ol’ glasses.
I’m actually sort of worried about the glasses thing. I got my current ones 4 years ago and they have been appropriately ahead of the curve up until, well, a month ago. And now they’re falling apart, and my prescription has changed, but there’s just no clear direction for where eyewear is going to go next…
