finally...  — 7 months ago

I have been thinking cloths today are soooo ugly. I read somewhere that someone said everyone looked like they are wearing leftovers. I couldn’t agree more. Occasionally I would think someone looks cute but not often. I would play games in NYC where I would look for someone who I thought was dressed cutely but one day, in a nice neighborhood, I searched for an hour and….nothing.From what I have seen of Douglas Hannants cloths, they are lovely. I actually like quite alot of it. It is so nice to start liking what is out there again.

Ladylike  — 8 months ago

I have really been thinking about this lately. I want to feel more ladylike. I have been a bull in a china cabinet for the last few years and it is getting on my last nerve. I didn’t used to be, in fact I would say I was described as quite ladylike but I haven’t been for long enough that I am going to have to work at getting this back.

Love the Bag!  — 1 year ago

My bag arrived today and the little spots are really no big deal. There is some wear on the metal that the handle is attached to and the handle is a bit goosey but all in all I love it. There are three bags I want now…this is one of them

handbags  — 1 year ago

My new thing(thanks to my dear MariAnnetoinette) is 1950’s Croc handbags! What do you think?

steady progress  — 1 year ago

I am not making any big leaps with this one but I have noticed since I put this goal on my list that my house is cleaner and I don’t resent the dishes or laundry as much. I am also taking a little more time for myself when I need it—something I never used to do. I think if I just keep working away at this I will be a goddess before I know it.

well, who doesn't want to be a goddess??  — 1 year ago

I have been giving alot of thought to why I put this on my list. First of all, I just like the way it sounds…I don’t know if it is the 1950’s thing or the goddess thing but either way it’s agreeable. I want to feel more like a housewife instead of just having someone extra to clean up after and I want to cook more and I LOVE wearing dresses and aprons so I think I am on the right track. I think the real reason I put this on here is that I am tired of feeling so shleppy. Cocktails in a clean house at 5:00pm sounds lovely. Maybe not the traditional June Cleaver kind of thing…more like Grace Kelly in Rear Window when she opens up that little bag and everything you would need is so perfectly put in that tiny little space—-now that’s hot!
