Pretty Little Things

Hiya dolls!! Happy Friday to you all. I was a bit distracted by the gorgeous sun outside this morning and didn't finish the post I had planned to show you, so I prepared this one instead, I've been on a tumbling adventure this week, lots of things seen that I was over the moon for, so I thought to share a bit with you today! If you want to see any others, you can always check out my tumblr where I post things that spark the imagination and get my creative waves flowing. A big hello to new followers (friends) here, welcome. I hope all of you have a marvellous weekend with plenty of sunshine!!

xoxoxo

{I love peacocks and this dress is wonderful!}


Evening dress by Weeks, 1910 Paris, the Met Museum


{Apparently cameo is coming back big time. Although, I've worn it for a while now, but maybe grab some pieces while their out. There is more here }





{If you are on my Twitter, then you might have seen this picture. It was what I had wished to be doing instead of my laundry - one can dream!!}




{It says...'HAPPINESS' is the sublime moment when you get out of your corset at night'.  I can understand that!}



{I thought this was beautiful...whimsical little dancer! By Dali with Disney}



{Ziegfeld Follies dancer, Irene Delroy by Alfred Cheney Johnston. c. 1927 - in love with this photo}



{I would love these shoes by Alexander McQueen}


{I would love this outfit worn by the super Catherine Baba}

  6. Lovely pictures. Peacocks are amazing birds. I love them. The sad thing about them is that only the male is so fabulous, while female is absolutely discret.

  45. Such a beautiful collection of photos, I don't know which one to gush over first! Perhaps the most surprising, since I hadn't come across it ever before, was the Dali-Disney collaboration. There are strong elements of both contributors in that lovely little dance! -- J xxxx

  47. Happy Monday!!!
    Hope your day has been fabulous like you!!!
    I love that quote: "I'm not weird! I'm a limited edition!"
    I was just reading an article about Kate Lanphear. She was saying how everyone, at the fashion magazine she worked at, was dressing minimalist and she loved wearing skin tight black skinny jeans with rock n roll accessories... Good for her!!! Always be true to yourself!!!
    Sounds like your weekend was great!!!
    It was cool & rainy here but is warming up again!!
    Hugs!!!! Shannojn
