Chip 'n' Dale

I met Chip 'n Dale at a parking lot by Red Rock...

At first they were checking me out....

Closer....

Then Chip came to me...

Dale was a bit shy but caved in, I guess I was irresistible...

-might have been the popcorn though..

Natures finest...

I've never been good at watching series on TV. The only one I've ever watched every episode of was LOST. Everyone has been telling me to watch Mad Men but I never really got into it (not really fair since I've only watched one episode..) but now I've fallen for Boardwalk Empire...
I watched the first episode when I was on holiday in the States and I've been hooked ever since, I mean, what's not to love? -the roaring 20's, AMAZING costumes (both the ladies and the gents!), gansters and Steve Buscemi.....

Now there is one image in particular I cannot get out of  my head -this one:

My favorite color for Fall and ermine!

Now sadly I have no money to spend on something as wonderful as vintage ermine fur right now -all I have is a 50's vintage ermine headband I found in San Diego and I do not have any golden, mustard velvet but I do have a marvelous shirt of that color. Guess it'll have to do for now.

Well once again fashion isn't really doing anything that nature hasn't already done, just look at this amazing Ermine Moth.... Perfect color combo!

 Guess what's on my list for Christmas... Ermine scarves! or money to make my own...

Faire Frou Frou

I finally got around to editing a few of the photos we took on our trip last month, I needed a break from putting everything in boxes (moving day is Sunday!!!)


When we went to LA I had the chance to visit the wonderful lingerie shop Faire Frou Frou and meet the darling Alison who runs it.

 Alison does not only look gorgeous she's also sweet as pie... and her accents is to die for! (please excuse my sour expression I wasn't feeling to great -the blasted LA fog was giving me a cold and a sore throat..)

The shop is an absolute gem of a boudoir, I literally want every single thing in there. I'm afraid we didn't have any money to shop for (felt quite embarassed about that...) but they do have a webshop and I will surely go back next time! See her lovely blog here and make sure you visit the shop if you're in the area:)

I won!!!!!

I won a give away! It's the first time I've ever won anything (other than a game of cards...) -and how lucky am I to win at a time where my funds are at an all time low....
The give away was hosted by one of my favorite blogs Fashion Forestry, who is hosting another give away right now for the curvy ladies, hurry, hurry!
The prize I won was $50 credit at the wonderful Etsy shop Bohemian Bisoux. If I had had more money to spend I would surely have bought much more..... Go take a look I'm sure you can find something.
This is what I chose:

The Marchesa 

The Celestine

The Beatriz

Aren't they just divine?! She names all the items in her shop, so cute.
You can never have too many hats or too many frilly nightgowns, right?....
Thank you so much to the darling Nicole and lovely Lauren:)
-and now I'll pass my luck on to you!

Give away!!!!!!! Not mine..... even better!!!!

The amazing Nicole from Fashion Forestry is hosting a wonderful give away!!! Look!!!!!!!!! If you don't already know Fashion Forestry or Bohemian Bisoux Vintage I suggest you hurry!!!!!!

Monday night

Enjoying a pleasant Monday evening watching old cartoons and reading ghost stories..
My husband, daughter and I carved pumpkins yesterday (you can see them on my Twitter and Facebook profile -I'm too lazy to edit the photos for the blog right now....) and they look so pretty and eerie when they're lit outside, I'm really looking forward to Halloween this year...
That's all... Oh, wait...

-Watch this!
