My Very Own Lula

Thanks to Lauren of Blooming Leopold I have my very own copy of Lula! Yay, thank you so much Lauren! I know I'm not the only one totally loving this issue. I don't want to give anything away for those of you that don't have it yet, but I'm going to have to get my hair cut like that second picture. Yes, I might even go red. Have a fantastic evening!

Monkey Business

I can't believe it's been almost a week since my last post! Things have been very busy, in a good way though. I've been doing lots of shopping for my shop and lots of sewing on my 40s sailor dress, which is almost done! Today I was inside working all day listing things on Etsy, which might explain my silly faces. Though, I'm really quite silly all the time, so that's no excuse, hehe.

I'm wearing a 40s dress that you might remember from awhile back when it was ankle length. I decided to hem it so it was more wearable. I'm so happy I did because now I wear it all the time! This has also pretty much been what my fall wardrobe has looked like. Everyday I seem to put on a 40s dress, a cardigan, knee socks and boots. Oh yes and my trusty hat!

I hope everyone is well, talk soon! :o)

*Monkey Business is a Cary Grant movie worth seeing, like all Cary Grant movies! It has Marilyn and Ginger too!

A Surprise Visit

On the way thrifting today Jonny and I stopped at this fantastic watermill. It was built in 1902!

While standing taking pictures I discovered we had a surprise visitor...

Isn't he the cutest?! He didn't even move when Jonny took pictures of him. Probably because he was scared for his life, lol! Maybe next time I'll see him again.

April 22, 1933

I recently came across this magazine from April 22, 1933. I was immediately drawn to the adorable lady and her fantastic dress! Why can't dresses from magazines come to life?! Anyway, I thought I'd share with you some of my favorite pages from this fun little mag! I hope you enjoy!

Plaid Sailor Dress

This plaid sailor dress is now up in my shop, along with several other new items!

Thank you all so much for your sweet comments about my new dress! I have to admit I wore it again today, hehe. Have a great evening!

My Favorite New Dress!

Today in the mail I received my favorite new dress! I had been watching it on ebay, everyday obsessively looking to see how high the price had gone. When bidding night came I was so nervous I was shaking, haha! I put in my bid in the last 15 seconds and closed my eyes. Yes, it was mine!!! It's from the 1940s and in wonderful condition. I just love all the little details! You'll be seeing a lot of this dress!

I hope everyone is enjoying their weekends! It's still cold and rainy here, so it's time to get all cozy and warm and watch a movie. :o)
