My Weekend in Pictures

This past weekend I was a very busy and happy girl! Early Saturday morning my Mom and I went to a flea market a few towns away. There I found the most amazing 30s style sunglasses for just 10 cents! I also found the sweetest picnic basket from the 50s for only a dollar. Right across the street from the flea market was the biggest anique mall. There we found the most fabulous selection of vintage hats and the prettiest dresses. I found two 40s dresses for my Etsy shop! I loved that boater hat from the 30s too. I'm going to have to make that place a regular stop. After all that exploring we went to a little diner where I sat right below a picture of my Elvis. I ate the yummiest burger and had one of my favorite desserts ever, a chocolate malt...yum! After we were nice and full we drove to a vintage shop the owners of the antique mall told us about. I was soooo excited once I got there I forgot to take any pictures. I found so many cute things for my shop I can't wait to share with you! I also found the most amazing 40s dress I think I've ever seen! It's such a beauty that I can't share it with you until I take pictures that do it justice.

That last picture of me in curlers was taken just moments ago! I'm curling my hair for the first time in years. I'm so happy I've decided to grown my hair out! If it looks half way decent in the morning I might have to set my hair every night.

Well, thats all for now. I think thats the most I've ever written on this blog...lol! I hope everyone has had a nice weekend too!

Aww that lil' 30s boater really is the sweetest! I'm always tryin' old boaters on but they're always so smalll on me! Either I have a big ol' head or they had really tiny ones! I'm hoping it's the latter! Aw, and I can't wait to see the '40s dresses you found--oh! and your dear creatures blouse is a dream!!
