Here are a few of my favorites in the shop right now. Bright and cheerful colors that seem to be longing for spring!
Keira Knightley for Vogue Italia
When I stumbled across these pictures of Keira Knightley for Vogue Italia I knew I'd have to share them with you! I love all of the sweet little dresses and delicate details. And of course Keira's cropped hair! Enjoy!
I want to thank you all for the lovely comments on my last couple of posts. It means a lot! xoxo
A Weekend Getaway
Hello lovelies! This past weekend Jonny and I made a trip to Memphis to visit Graceland for Elvis' 76th Birthday Celebration! It's something I've wanted to do forever and Jonny surprised me with this trip on Christmas. As many times as I've visited Graceland I've never been there to see the Christmas decorations, so that was also a real treat. We were able to tour the home at night on the eve of Elvis' birthday!
The monkey was wearing a Christmas hat, lol!
Elvis shoes from the 50's. I want!
Touring Graceland in the evening was spectacular!
Here I am with George Klein, one of Elvis's best friends! He DJs a radio show every Friday at Graceland.
Being that is was Elvis' birthday there were some of Elvis' costars there signing autographs! Jennifer Holden was in Jailhouse Rock with Elvis. She's still so gorgeous!
Julie Adams starred in Tickle Me with Elvis! She also was in Creature from the Black Lagoon in 1954 as well as lots of other films and television.
On my left is Larry Domasin who starred in Fun in Acapulco with Elvis when he was just a little boy! On my right is Jim Murray who was a member of The Imperials and preformed with Elvis in the late 60's through the early 70's. It was so amazing to meet so many great people who knew Elvis!
So much more happened in those two days it almost seems like a dream! So I'll leave you with this for now. I hope you had a wonderful weekend!
Inspiration Friday, January 8, 1935
Tomorrow, January 8th would have been Elvis's 76th birthday! I could go on and on about Elvis, but since y'all know how much I love him all ready I won't blab... So, here are just a few of my favorite pictures of Elvis in all his glory! You have no idea how hard it was for me to narrow it down to just these pictures, haha.
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! I'll talk to you super soon, hopefully with lots of exciting things to share. ;o)
Vintage Novelty Prints
This past summer I developed a big obsession with vintage novelty prints. While looking through my closet I realized how many fun prints I have. Here are just a few of my favorites!
Starting from the left is the newest addition to my collection... A little 1950's sundress with a farm print... Then another 50's sundress, that you've seen here before with little red zebras... Next my favorite 1940's playsuit with little chickens all over...Then last but least is a pretty little 40's playsuit from Solanah, that I can't wait to wear in the spring! If you'd like, I can share some more soon!?
And a girl who really knew how to rock those novelty prints, Elizabeth Taylor!
Talk to you lovelies soon!
Give Me A Dress That Twirls
Headband, Lovely Bands, also a Christmas present
Box bag, a gift from my Mama
Tights, Target
Boots, Nashville Flea Market
Y'all probably know by now that I'm crazy about a dress that twirls! This dress does just that perfectly! It was a Christmas present from Jonny :o)
Oh, and I was not cold while taking these pictures...it was 68 degree's that day! It's cold again now though..
How was everyone's holiday weekend?
