Curious about my mom’s name connected with the Lovely Socialite. She is Mrs. Thomas W. Phipps and was indeed a ravishing social creature.
Whoa! Maybe we’re your mom!
I’m actually Mrs. Thomas W. Phipps! Seriously! Have been since 1998!
There can only be one Mrs. Thomas W. Phipps!!
So glad you’ve acknowledged me as unique! You have tremendous taste!
Actually my husband is Thomas W. Phipps III, and there were a couple of other Mrs. Thomas W. Phipps before I came along! LOL
