Things That Please Me: Midsummer

Happy Mid-July. There is a lot that I love about this month, biking, thunderstorms, my birthday (!) and this year to add to the list, the Mighty Swell Summer in the City Sale.

Here are some more loves for my lovelies

*That silly boy with the glasses made a grand return, tomfoolery.
*Friends near and far.
*Unusual melodies.
*Loving that high waisted shorts are all the rage, so cute.
*Need something to cool down from all the heat? Loving these.
*Bikes and Film, I say Yes!
*Make sure you're keeping your noggin safe when riding, digging these adorable helmets. 

Happy Mid-July!

Vintage Icons: Monroe

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. I love getting dressed up and transforming into a different persona. In Spain, the options are limited, but with a little creativity we settled on going as Andy Warhol's "Marilyn Monroe."

 

Monroe is such an iconic woman. Her personality, that hair and her no holds barred attitude. As far as vintage icons go, she is a super star and I was glad to walk in her heels for a night.
