The PINK Plate Special…

“How many for the Pink Martini party, this evening, Miss?” I’ve rented the entire room just for us! I had a friend who once said our neighborhood was so obscenely decorated during Christmas it looked like Santa had thrown up. I guess you could say Cupid had the same digestive problem but I LOVED IT! How fabulous is this? This was taken during the morning but can you imagine how magic it is at night?? The Rose Parade meets The… [Read More]

Be Still My Heart!

I saw this beauty yesterday in the LV store. It was calling my name – in French even!It was iridescent like the vinyl of a vintage car’s back seat just pleading with me to hop in and be bad. For close to $900 I couldn’t be that bad even for a bag. Ever. I found this knock off for $239 and although I know it doesn’t have that hypnotic allure of the real LV, I’d be happy to take her… [Read More]

Lillypalooza!

Please excuse the alliteration but I have a penchant for pretty pink purses. My new Lilly tote came in and it is very nice. I don’t know if I love it though because it is very big. The print bag was a nice surprise. I am figuring the duo is a “two-fer” because I love the print as much as the shiny bright color. Here is a snap of the lining. Love it!I hadn’t even taken the tissue off the… [Read More]
