matters of little significance

Ration-book chic on show in Paris: Images from an exhibition, running from now until November 15 in Paris, which shows accessories made by Parisians during the Nazi occupation in WWII. Shoes, handbags, hats, scarves and gloves were made from recycled materials, or showed resistance sentiments, and are really exquisite, like this exquisitely carved wooden platform shoe.

I hope they come out with a book, I doubt I will be in Paris anytime soon and I'd love to see more.
