Blogger Meetup!

Last week Aya of Strawberry Koi contacted me and to let me know she would be making a quick trip to Nashville. I've know Aya over the internet since we both started our blogs, so of course I knew I had to meet her while she was in town! So, Friday afternoon Fab, Lauren, Jonny and I meet Aya, her husband Thomas as well as they're two friends Kristine and Sara. We spent the afternoon vintage shopping, drinking coffee and laughing lots. I really had such a wonderful time meeting everyone! It made me kinda sad that they all don't live closer but I know we'll see each other again soon! :o)





Jonny took the first picture and all the rest are by they awesome Thomas!

I hope all of you are well! My Mom just arrived this afternoon from Maryland for a week visit! Tomorrow we're going to head to Memphis to visit our good buddy Joe. I'll talk to you soon!

Blue Sunday







1950's Dress: Trade with Aya
Belt: My Mom's from before I was born!
Boots: Frye

Hi everyone! Sorry it's been awhile since my last post! Fall allergies got the best of me. :o/
Anyway, I'm super excited to share this dress with you! Aya of Strawberry Koi and I did a dress trade (yes, I'm the dress trade queen lately, hehe) and this is the dress I got from her. I simply adore it! Thank you Aya! I have a feeling we'll do this again ;o)
The belt was my Mom's back in the 1970's....Could it be any cuter with the little animals!? We took these pictures on the way home after leaving Fab's house. I fell in love with the broken down barn!
I hope everyone has had a lovely weekend! Friday I had a fantastic blogger meet-up and I promise to post pictures soon!

Memories, August 2010

Back in August when I went to Graceland I promised Casey I would take pictures at Elvis's house in the lovely dress I borrowed from her. So finally here they are! These were taken in the early morning hours of August 16th, thirty three years to the day that Elvis passed away.


Here I'm walking to the Meditation Garden, a place Elvis built to, meditate in, hehe. He's now buried there with his Mom, Dad and Grandma.



Here's Elvis singing the song Memories in his leather suit....sorry, I couldn't resist! ;o)


Casey's dress was perfect to wear to Graceland! Thanks Casey darling!

Oh, and I should be a having a very exciting blogger meet up in the next day or two! Yay!!!

In the Setting Sun



Sorry this one's fuzzy! :o/


1950's Dress from Holli
1950s Belt

Hi darlings! This lovely dress became mine just recently when I did a trade with Holli of A Red Robbin. It all started when I was reading her blog and she had this dreamy dress hanging on her wall because it was quite her size. After finding out it was my size I asked her if she'd ever consider selling it. Instead Holli suggested doing a trade....how could I say no! I couldn't love this dress anymore! Thank you so much Holli for being such a sweetheart. I'll be sure to let you all know when Holli has pictures of the dress I sent her on her blog!

I hope everyone has had a lovely weekend! Mine was filled with great friends, good food and some country music. Simply fabulous! Talk to you soon! :o)

Eyes Of Violet

Elizabeth Taylor has been one of my favorite actresses since I was a little girl. I remember being super small and watching National Velvet, wishing I looked like Elizabeth. Back then there was still some hope that I would grow to be as stunningly gorgeous as she was/is. No such luck, lol! Though I do pretend and quite often have Elizabeth's face as my profile picture on facebook, hehe. Anyway I came across these rare images of Elizabeth on tumblr and I think they're so lovely and inspiring. I hope you do too!

What a babe, huh?!
Have a wonderful weekend you pretty things!
