Ostentatious!

When I was a little girl, I adored older films. Most of those stories were created with flamboyant and extravagant world building. One that comes to mind is Gone With the Wind. Another was The King and I.

Something magnetic happened to me when I became engrossed in those settings--thus, my word for the day: OSTENTATIOUS.

I remember when I began writing about five years ago, ostentatious was one of those words I'd read before but never really examined. It was one of those words that intrigued me and made me wonder what other words were out there that I would find moving.

Staying true to my A to Z Challenge theme of "What I learned from Pinterest", I'm highlighting anything I found on Pinterest that I feel has that over-the-top feel to it.

Yes. Those are real diamonds on that pink set of lips. WOW! So, what have you seen, tried, or heard of that you'd categorize as OSTENTATIOUS?
