Vintage Monday....

{via::special thanx}

 

 

 

.... Ohhh Toto.... we're not in Kansas anymore....

 

I ♥ the glamour of the pin-up Luv-vah-lies. 

 

Their faces always seem to be in a constant state of surprise of their beauty.

 

....and their knock out curvy bodies.... enviable❣

The  dress is ultra feminine. And the color is seductively powerful.

 Being the shoe goddess that I am, I'm simply in luv with the ankle strapped Betty Boop- style shoe is shear luv-vah-li-ness ✿

 

HAPPY MONDAY, COOKIES !

This classic pin-up glamour girl is ready for the day's shot. 

The pinched waist, sleeveless red dress says "look at all of this luv-lie-ness". 

 

Smile for the camera ❣

Just in time for the upcoming holiday season, these beautifully vintage tags takes me to a more nostalgic place.  Printed on acid-free paper and embellished smartly with a ribbon.
I like it there very much.  A time when elegance was clean and simple.  When days were spent playing your favorite childhood games.  And evening were spent with family gathered on the porch, intently listening to the baseball game...on radio.

Ahhhhhh...the good old days...

Here's more nostalgia

She's Gotta Have This!

{buy it here::special thanx}

I have {very, very soon} three {important} birthdays, fastly appoaching.  One of these special days belongs to my granddaughter- Beautiful, who will be three years old.  For the last three to four months, {yes, long before Christmas} I've been on the hunt for 'the perfect' birthday gift. 

Enter...this awesome vintage peddle car!  The result {successful, I will add} of my daily blog stroll.  This awesome find fits my self-imposed criteria for 'Grandchildren Gifts'.  Gifts must fit, at least one of the following criteria {there are many more but I don't want to bore you} :: something educational, requires no minimal 'game cartridge' purchases, must involve some gross motor movement involvement since physical education has been taken out of the public school curriculum, must be developmentally educational.   

The metal accountrements- how can you not love that hood ornament?- and the silver paint gives it the classic vintage car look, while the pretty pink colour understatedly says...I am girl!

Nothing like a great find, wouldn't you agree?  What have you found lately?

I'm Attracted...

Went on my usual {blog} stroll this morning.  Found this quaint vintage refrigerator magnet while perusing the shoppe.   It's a nice little 'throw back' to when times were not so serious. You know, Hot Wheel cars, Paper Dolls & Jacks. 

I Do Like Vintage...

{pic via here::special thanx}

Oh but I do {luv} everything vintage! 
The nostalgic ambience makes me all warm... inside. 
The style makes me empowered...inside. 
The attitude makes me feel classy...all over!

I {luv} my warm, empowered, classy attitude...everywhere!

Vintage Chair = Shelf...

I want this!  This is interior design heaven.  The nostalgic and feminine style has sent me reeling...in {luv}!  And to use it as a storage unit...I'd never hang another towel.  I'm on my way to the nearest antique store.

I"ll take one of each.....please

These little gems have helped fuel my new-found  {luv} for vintage jewelry.  And, although I have wondered upon these delicious hand made finds from Florence, Italy - much too late to purchase -- ...I'm still going to drool over them...
{my favorite?  the lusciously bejeweled  crown that fits 'just right' on the pinkie finger....ah-h-h-h-h-}
