Summer Photo-shoot Preview Two Too
Well David's Birthday party was delightful; perfect weather, great food with thanks to my lovely helpers, lively shining guests and a birthday boy unsure if this was a day to celebrate or not (the big 70) but who joined in the fun with gratitude for everybody's affection. Sunday was to be a day of rest but everything changed again, when we went to Joseph and being soooo tired I missed a step on a coffee house deck and went flying, fracturing a finger and spraining my foot. Yeowww it hurt all the way home!

So since I am now a splint-fingered typist I'll stop and go add some more of the last photo shoot pictures, that will be going up on my 2 etsy stores ASAP. Due to the UK & Vintage Life popularity of the 50's Patio Dresses, that I am always on the look out for, I'll start with those!

Fall Fashion Preview
I am swamped getting ready for David's 70th birthday party and our subsequent 10 day trip to the coast, but I just had to show you some of the dresses from the fashion shoot we just did. They were so fantastic and then with the added dimension of Sarah my model and my styling wizardry they just look out of this world. OK not so modest about my stylin capacity. I will be posting them in my spare time (ha ha) now and in August between trips, on Luminous Lady Vintage. If you see one you just have to have now, let me know and I will post it next so it can be purchased. Blessings!

Fashion Preview Inspiration & Tips
As we prepare for our SW vacation to Moab, Monument Valley and Bryce Canyon in our re-issued vintage 1963 Shasta Airflight Trailer, I decided it would be fun to post some pre-views of upcoming fashion offerings in my 2 vintage stores. It will be fun to do the Vintage Treasure Quest in small towns along the way and I'll post some of the goodies we find as well as the cool vintage stores in upcoming blogs! *Hats*Jackets*Gowns*Party Dresses*Suits Coats*Purses*Costume Jewelry* Lingerie*Exotic Lounge Wear*Wild West Goodies* all available at my 2 vintage etsy stores!
