Fabulous overload...

Fabulous...

Wow factor...

Dress by Chrissy Wai-Ching

Hurts so good...

My new shoes are slightly uncomfortable. And with 4.25" heels, they are way too tall. But they were half price for only $29.99. And they look fantastic with skinny pants.


You can get your own pair at JCPenney.

I love a bargain...

This Nie + Zoe top was originally $139 at Anthropolgie. See, it still has the tags. I got it for $2 yesterday at a thrift store.

There's another one in rose which I did not buy. Should I go back and get it for my sister?

Trailer-park chic...

This photo of Cyndi Lauper is one of my favorites. I think she's absolutely fabulous...

Funky-chunky-gypsy-cowgirl-junktastic belt buckles...

I made another belt buckle, ya'll... and I finished it just in time for Pink Saturday.

I'm selling these in my new Etsy shop. The one below is a new buckle and features four vintage brooches and lots of beads, and faux crystals and pearls.

The one below is a vintage German silver Tony Lama cowboy buckle which I purchased from an antiques store in Buffalo, Wyoming. It also features four old brooches and lots of faux pearls and crystals.

I made this belt buckle...

I bought an old belt buckle and some junk jewelry at an antique store and now, thanks to Aleene's metal glue, it looks like this. I love it!

Sterling-silver pine-cone necklace...

Ya'll know pine cones are one of my favorite things so I was thrilled to find these sterling-silver pine-cone necklaces. I bought one for myself and gave one to my little sister. She loves pine cones too.

They are available at the Etsy store, Charms4U for only $11, plus $3 shipping. They even come in a cute, little gift box.

If I were on a tropical island, I'd wear this today...

If I ever got married again...

I don't plan to ever have another wedding, but if I did, I think I would want to a red wedding gown. I think they are gorgeous. The top one is my favorite. Which one is yours?

All of these are surpisingly affordable and available from Romantic Gowns.

Aren't they fabulous...

Today, I am sharing one of my favorite photos with you.

I'll bet they are in France... or California...

I would love to give credit but I can't remember where I got it.

Sometimes I wish I were a crenoline...

One of my favorite searches* on eBay is for vintage party dresses.

I could spend hours looking at these gorgeous works of art and their ladylike splendor... and sometimes I do. Aren't they just the dreamiest? I imagine them on dress-forms all over my house.

Here are a few eBay sellers who always seem to have wonderful selections of fabulous vintage party dresses.
