SUIT UP

As the temperature rises on the thermometer this summer the perfect way to cool down is to head to the pool.  Make a splash this summer in a vintage suit.  I am adding several to the shop.  All Perfect for a Stylish and Cool Summer and EASY ON YOUR WALLET TO TAKE THE PLUNGE; THEY ARE IN THE 25.00 TO 30.00 DOLLAR PRICE RANGE.

RUGGED GOOD LOOKS

I don't normally pay too much attention to models and that sort of thing but this fella had me doing a double take. DAYUM. He really is almost too much, talk about rugged good looks on display!  I am loving his woodsy outdoorsman style along with the ink and his awesome physique doesn't hurt either.

Though I really do think he needs to lose that rinky-dink boat and get himself into a canoe, preferably one with a Scottie in it ;)

WILD SWIM

I have distinct childhood memories of learning to swim and I have always loved the water--in fact I crave being submersed in it at times, my souls well being needs it! At times I think I was a sailor at sea in a former life.  I am a big believer in the lure of water.  It makes me feel renewed and who does not love a dip on a sweltering summer day?  These images and story from Toast are so lovely. Cenote Swimming is described and it sounds magical.  Kate Rew's book Wild Swim looks amazing and I will be giving it a read in between swimming at the pool or our local lake or perhaps the creek that runs behind my house....I don't think I will have to look too far for my own Wild Swim this summer  :)

SPECIAL DELIVERY

I discovered yesterday that there is a birds nest in one of the mailboxes at the end of my road.  I am not sure what kind of bird she is, she took off so fast out of the box that I couldn't get a good look at her.   But I think there will be a Special Delivery coming along pretty soon :)

All Nice and Thrifted

It's Monday and I am all nice and thrifted.  Everything I have on was thrifted :)  The embroidered peasant top had been in the shop and it didn't sell, and I am rather glad it didn't.   The Espadrille platform sandals I got for the ridiculous price of 2.00! and as I am a belt fiend I added the leather wrapped huge buckle belt.  That red Art Deco bracelet is one of my favorites, I have had it forever and it adds just the right pop of color as do those red dangle earrings both came from a local flea market; and the art deco platinum mine cut diamond ring, just the right amount of sparkle, bought at Scott's Antique Show in Hotlanta Georgia (it was June and very hot, the ring was a birthday present from Harry).
