Vintage Fashion Friday - Dreamy Weekend Ahead.

I am incredibly excited and really looking forward to my weekend "to do" list - I happen to have some very amazing and "dreamy" projects at the moment.

One is a "fairy tale" inspired wedding invitation (think creamy shimmery paper, a touch of fairy dust, tiny jeweled blossoms and two people who are madly in love sigh...)

Next, there is website artwork for a couture wedding bouquet design team's new website - think feathers, gems, french silk ribbons - crazy fabulous!

And if that isn't enough, a custom illustration for a very style savvy author - I am pinching myself.

I promise to share all the loveliness when the projects are complete, in the meantime, thank you for stopping by this week and I wish you a dreamy weekend!

Vintage Fashion Friday - Oh My!

This week has been the craziest week!  For the last 10 days I have been managing the energy of my snack crazed, begging for TV six year old. Ahhhhh.... "Winter Break". Moms all over Ann Arbor are trying to book play dates, work on crazy school projects, go to the movies, take trips, and keep their kids out of the snack drawer. Hence, my random blogging schedule. {why isn't there a winter break for moms?} 

To end this frenetic week, I wanted to find something that was happy & sunny for Vintage Fashion Friday. I think this 1959 photo from the March issue of Charmed Magazine is so wonderful! I love the giant polka dots, the cute ribbon trimmed hat and smart gloves.

The perfect outfit to make anyone smile - especially during "winter break"

Enjoy the all the fabu fashion at the Oscars!

Vintage Fashion Friday-Always Mod Marimekko

Happy Friday everyone!

A little mix for today. Vintage Marimekko, circa 1965, and a preview video of the 2011 Spring Summer collection. I love, love, love the black & white geometric designs, the fun tights & bold colors. The silhouettes look chic and comfy.  Spring! Hurry! I really can't wait much longer... 

 

 

 

 

 

In anticipation of spring (we in Michigan have a bit of a wait) buy yourself a beautiful bouquet of flowers to enjoy this weekend.

Thank you for stopping by this week!
