Barnes finished the look with a nude lip, which he created by lining the star's lips with Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat Lip Liner in Pillowtalk and then filled in with two shades: Merle Norman Lip Pencil Plus in Guava on the outer edge of the lip for a shadowing effect and Merle Norman Lip Polish in Ladylike to the center of the lip for a fuller look.

"Given the importance of finding a desirable marriageable man in an era when prim, proper, ladylike behavior was the norm, young women often reveled in chances to participate in well-established and -regarded traditions that might guide them to the spouses of their dreams," Diane Arkins, the author of the book "Halloween: Romantic Art and Customs of Yesteryear," from Pelican Publishing, said in an email.

Here is a PDF of the handout Mr. Hong gave out last year, which he calls "Layering in Brushstrokes," and which analyzes aspects of each of these winning essays: •"In Three and a Half Hours, an Alarm Will Go Off" •"Redefining Ladylike" •"Why I, a Heterosexual Teenage Boy, Want to See More Men in Speedos" Another great source of published opinion writing by young people?

Growing up in a small town with weird thoughts and being constantly told that it wasn't ladylike to write dark stories and that I'd never make much of myself if I didn't learn how to blend in, it was stunning (and gratifying) to find an example of a woman from a small town with weird thoughts writing dark stories who was celebrated throughout the world.

The Trudis tote is especially soft where it touches a person's body; the Brunella handbag, a rendition of a proper ladylike purse with a hinged flap, has unpainted edges so it doesn't look perfect; the hand-dyed Jeanette clutch, her most popular (and labor-intensive) model, is secured using customized brass hardware, and not custom-made, since "a lot of this comes from what I'm able to do myself," Chan says.

In the exhibition, to show transitions at work, a black lace and silk dress by Chanel, circa 1926, is next to a 1986 black silk crepe evening dress with embroidered trompe l'oeil jewelry by Karl Lagerfeld, one of Chanel's successors; and Pierre Balmain's spring 1954 ladylike Psyche haute couture dress in embroidered lace and silk satin is partnered with a fiercely modern fall 2013 evening dress in beaded black and white raffia and rhinestones by his current successor, Olivier Rousteing.

Giving zero fucks about appearing "ladylike" (and expertly handling a chicken drumstick): Bucking expectations of feminine propriety and getting comfortable with her own bosom: Helping others get comfortable with the female form in a non-sexualized way: Skewering the superficiality of the objectifying male gaze — in all its teenage, testosterone-soaked glory — by embodying it all too well: And not least of all, understanding the insidious, 100% historically accurate origins of painful stilettos: God bless, Amanda Bynes, and thank you for making a movie that will never fail to make me laugh.

Though we were shocked to see the Louboutin-loving star swap out her preferred red-soled high heels for a chunky lug-soled lace-up patent boot with edgy cutout at the heel, and even more surprised to see her trade in a ladylike look for influencer-appropriate "lampshading" (the art of wearing a top as a dress and forgoing pants altogether), there were a few clues that showed that Lively, 30, hadn't completely overhauled her signature style: That always-perfect hair and some massive statement jewels – this time, a $130 pair of earrings from Kendra Scott.

Leading the camera through the august galleries, Fraser (in the guise of a ladylike docent named Jane Castelton) shifts seamlessly between lofty praise for the masterpieces on display ("resplendently amazingly flawless") and the museum itself ("a place apart from the mundane demands of reality" that provides "a training in taste") to grim accounts of the squalid poorhouses that appeared in America at the same time that the country's oldest art museums were being established ("The inmates are lodged in rooms of about 22 feet by 45 feet … and are classed according to their general habits and characteristics, separating the more deserving from the abandoned and worthless").
