-dressing since then--still, that you were ever able to have looked like that--you in Paris!--proves that your observation and taste are not yet sufficiently cultivated to make you anything of a success when you come out in May. Thus I must speak plainly and at once. Now, let us pretend that the little girl I see before me is not you at all, but some abstract person; and let us dissect her bit by bit: her type, her style, her suitability--or want of it--her attitude and the general effect she produces. And then let me suggest the remedies and alterations which can improve her. Firstly, her type, Caroline, child, is not distinguished. She has a large-eyed, dear little profile, which may be very pretty as a full face, and which, framed in appropriately done hair, could succeed in being picturesque, but in itself, with its little snub features, is insignificant. She has rather a big head, and thick, bushy dark hair--which I grieve to observe she has done in a large bun of sausage curls!-- D YOU HAVE ALTERED YOUR STYLE OF HAIRDRESSING SINCE THEN STILL THAT YOU WERE EVER ABLE TO HAVE LOOKED LIKE THAT YOU IN PARIS PROVES THAT YOUR OBSERVATION AND TASTE ARE NOT YET SUFFICIENTLY CULTIVATED TO MAKE YOU ANYTHING OF A SUCCESS WHEN YOU COME OUT IN MAY THUS I MUST SPEAK PLAINLY AND AT ONCE NOW LET US PRETEND THAT THE LITTLE GIRL I SEE BEFORE ME IS NOT YOU AT ALL BUT SOME ABSTRACT PERSON AND LET US DISSECT HER BIT BY BIT HER TYPE HER STYLE HER SUITABILITY OR WANT OF IT HER ATTITUDE AND THE GENERAL EFFECT SHE PRODUCES AND THEN LET ME SUGGEST THE REMEDIES AND ALTERATIONS WHICH CAN IMPROVE HER FIRSTLY HER TYPE CAROLINE CHILD IS NOT DISTINGUISHED SHE HAS A LARGE EYED DEAR LITTLE PROFILE WHICH MAY BE VERY PRETTY AS A FULL FACE AND WHICH FRAMED IN APPROPRIATELY DONE HAIR COULD SUCCEED IN BEING PICTURESQUE BUT IN ITSELF WITH ITS LITTLE SNUB FEATURES IS INSIGNIFICANT SHE HAS A RATHER BIG HEAD AND THICK BUSHY DARK HAIR WHICH I GRIEVE TO OBSERVE SHE HAS DONE IN A LARGE BUND OF SAUSAGE CURLS
