"Burns makes it abundantly clear . . . they just don't make heiresses like Millicent Rogers anymore." --Hampton Sides

Nobody knew how to live the high life like Standard Oil heiress Millicent Rogers. Born to luxury, she lived in a whirl of European vacations, exquisite clothing, and dashing men.

In Searching for Beauty, Cherie Burns chronicles Rogers's rebellious life from her days as a young girl afflicted with rheumatic fever to her final days as one of the legendary chatelaines of New Mexico. She eloped with a penniless baron; danced tangos in European nightclubs; romanced Roald Dahl, Secretary of Defense James Forrestal, and Hollywood icon Clark Gable; and triumphed in the world of fashion. She was muse to legendary American designer Charles James, appeared in Vogue and Harper's Bazaar and popularized Southwestern style by adopting turquoise jewelry, squaw skirts and short-waist jackets as her signature look.

With Searching for Beauty, Millicent Rogers enters the pantheon of great American women who, like Diana Vreeland and Babe Paley, put their distinctive stamp on American style.

Too Cute!!!
Color: Fox-Crocodile, Color: Fox-Crocodile
This was a pleasant surprise and especially for the price!!! You get a 2 pack of toys!!!! They are absolutely adorable and made to last!!! Soft and lightweight!!! Has a nice squeakiness which my dog adores. I appreciate that they are made to fold up and Velcro so they become very compact. You can store them so easily and/or slide in your purse, traveling bag or leave one in your car. They fold up to be the size of folded socks. I recommend.

Our pup loves it (to pieces)!
Color: Fox-Crocodile
Fun toy for our playful pup, but nothing indestructible. She finds a seam and in days, the toy is in bits. Lucky for us, she still enjoys playing with parts! Package of 2. One down, one to go!

Holds Up Well
Color: Fox-Crocodile
My dog loves this toy and after several months of heavy use he has yet to rip it apart like he's done with every other toy I've bought him. He has a hard time grabbing it with his teeth to play his usual tug of war games.

Cute
Color: Fox-Crocodile
I love the interactive toys, BUT my dogs are either too destructive or smart because they’ve ripped the little treat part, so I can’t hide stuff in there anymore. Otherwise, they still play tug of war with it. Probably better for smaller or lazy dogs.
