So,,,,Friday morning, feeling a BIT better and a beautiful one at that, WHAT's a Gal to do? (Jill, stop laughing!, these were extenuating circumstances!) I went Yard and Garage Sale hopping! DUH!
Fun little Retro Table, HEAVY duty Doll Wardrobe and an old suitcase...
Of course, the minute I got down on the floor, my "Photo assistants" decided it was "Wrestle Time!!"
Kodi and Show,,,wait, maybe they're "Photo Hounds," not assistants!
I am not so much of a "Red and Green" Christmas Gal.....This Nativity is all done in pastels, with wood and old moss........Gorgeous!
And this Dress?????
Anyone a size 10 that needs a LBD? (little black dress) Oh my , to be a size 10 again!
Ballerina length,,,lace overdress/taffeta lining-sheared elastic back!
I don't think it's Vintage,,,but it's a classic,,,made in the good old USA by the ILGWU,,,,,
How FUN would this be to wear with cowboy boots and a jean jacket!! Anne, I think it's too BIG for you,,,,but I could SO see YOU make this work!
I know it'll fit my dress form,,,,but if you've an event or reason to WEAR it,,,let me know!
Still tired, but it was a fun "Hunting Day." And,,although Fall is in the air in Washington State, it was absolutely beautiful!
Enjoy your weekend! And again, thanks for all the well wishes and sympathy! I'll hold YOUR "virtual" hand, next time!
Hugs and Love,
Shell

Is there ANYTHING a good shopping trip can't cure?? I love your goodies, and I wish I was a size 10 again too!!
ReplyDeleteHi Shell:
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful LBD...and all the goodies you found! I had to laugh out loud at your "assistants". Aren't they the silly hams? Hope you have a relaxing and creative weekend.

Aw... I love it when my dogs get all 'wrestle-y'!! I clap my hands and get them all riled up- then they go from rolling on the floor to doing a lap around the house at 100 MPH!! Oh, it drives my husband nuts, but it makes me laugh so hard!
ReplyDeleteWhat great finds, as usual! And such a pretty dress!
Glad you're feeling better! Dental work isn't fun at all. Thank goodness you rewarded yourself with some treasures

Love the LBD! I'm not quite a ten -- though it's my dream. I've got a wedding coming up in the winter and this may be my incentive to stick to healthy eating -- especially through the Thanksgiving/Christmas Eatathon. Wouldn't the LBD be fun for a formal winter wedding?
