A Gift for the Fashionista

-



Recently while cleaning out and renovating the textile warehouse in Finland where she works,



my friend Tuuli found several Valentino and Ungaro sample books that belonged to one of the finest retail fabric shops in Northern Europe.


 

There are actually two Ungaro and five Valentino books.




She no longer has room for them and is offering them for sale!  I think they are FABULOUS and would make a lovely framed art display for an equally FABULOUS FASHIONISTA!

You can contact Tuuli at her blog, LUMO LIFESTYLE, for info on pricing and shipping.
Best Hurry!!!

(And be sure and check out the latest treasure just listed at Il Tuo Tesoro)

Those are remarkable. I can just imagine how exciting that first moment was when she discovered them and realized what they were. I don't think I'd be able to part with them.

Love what looks like watercolor florals behind the model in the top frame, both the colored in and negative spaces.

EUREKA!!

I found my bicycle! (my new old bicycle) The funny part is where I found it. Yesterday after finishing my post, " I'm longing for a new bicycle ," I was lamenting to my husband about how badly I wanted a bicycle of my own.  He looked at me and said, " but you have a bicycle."  (our vintage Colombia tandem beach cruiser) I said, "I know, I love the tandem but I would like my own bicycle."  He said, "You do have your own bicycle... remember you bought one at a garage sale late last summer?" The light bulb went off and the memories came flooding back!  All of a sudden I remembered the day I scored my awesome vintage bicycle at a garage sale on Briggs Avenue for $20!  I ran to the backyard where it had been covered up with a large brown tarp for the winter.  I squealed with delight at the sight of it!  I remembered when I bought it it had several small American flags attached to the front basket from being ridden in the 4th of July...

There is something about single beds... (Image via domino) I would love to sleep in a bunk bed again... if just for one night. I can just imagine the conversations that would take place in these rooms!   Summer memories are made here and here and here. Rooms with twin beds compel you to have a conversation before nodding off.   (Image via Pottery Barn Kids)   (Image via Elle Decor)   (Image courtesy of the desk of annie)   (Image via Beautiful Things to Share) (Cathy Kincaid)   Some more terrific twins...   (Image courtesy of gracie) (Image via Elle Decor)   (Image via HGTV) (Image via moodboard) (Image via Style Court) (Image via Just Beachy) Don't forget to enter my Giveaway!

Celebrating 28 years

28 years ago today I found my greatest treasure. Legends say that hummingbirds float free of time, carrying our hopes for love,  joy and celebration.  Like a hummingbird, we aspire to hover and savor each moment as it passes, embrace all that life has to offer and to celebrate the joy of everyday.  The hummingbird's delicate grace reminds us that life is rich, beauty is everywhere, every personal connection has meaning and that laughter is life's sweetest creation. Happy Anniversary Chris I love you madly!
