Happy weekend!

Are you feeling the Holiday season? I know I am! This weekend, I will be out shopping. We're going into the second week of December and I still have a long unchecked list! Will let you know if I find awesome bazaars. How about you, ladies? What are you up to this weekend? I have a feeling it'll be similar to mine. Have fun!!!

Weekly ebay find: vintage cocoa felt tilt hat

I am in love with this vintage cocoa felt tilt hat adorned with feathers and a veil. It just looks so old and romantic, don't you think? Well, I cant use this today unless I'm in a 1940's themed wedding or play or party, but it would just look oh so lovely in my closet!

Check it out here.

The Princess and the Frog

Speaking of films and royal life. Let's go to a more modern and colorful one! I've been waiting and waiting to see Disney's newest fairy tale "The Princess and the Frog!" I loved the trailers and the movie stills look awesome. And there's been a lot of good reviews too.

Lovely, isn't it? Sorry the photos are a bit of a spoiler, but I think we girls all know what will happen: "They will live happily ever after."

Are you as excited as I am? Will you be hitting the theaters when it starts showing on December 11?

The Swan

I have recently seen the Grace Kelly (gorgeous!) classic "The Swan" over at MGM cable channel and I have been swooning over it since. Oh, the royal life--what a nice fantasy.

Have you seen the movie? Do you like watching black & white romantic flicks?

Madame Butterfly

Madame Butterfly, one of the most amazing stores in the world, is selling its exclusive collection of unique and vintage clothing. The store, which is about 3,000 square feet of clothing and accessories, is owned by the lovely Patricia O' Donnell, a 65-year old thrift addict and fashion enthusiast. Words cannot describe her collection and I believe even her feelings over having to part with a lifetime's worth of beautiful finds. Check some of them out:

Ms. O' Donell notes, "I get such enjoyment helping people play "dress-up". Again, real life has jumped up and bit me and I am losing my home & the store if I don't part with my collection... This has been a labor of love for me, and only a true vintage clothing collector could understand that."

"I am trying to appeal to someone or even an existing business that wants to expand their inventory. This is a wonderful opportunity for anyone that has ever wanted to own an authentic vintage clothing collection or open their own boutique," she added.

Aww, this is so calling out for me!!! If I'm not so poor at the moment, I would definitely buy everything from her. But alas, I am. Check out the story here and view more of the collection here.

Oh, and please pass to your friends!!

Brilliant idea: Multi-functional closet

A brilliant idea to start another week of blogging! This one is a multi-functional closet by designer Rene Siebum:

I don't think this space-saver needs any more explaining. It speaks for itself and is just..well, brilliant! Don't you think?

I want a bike

December is here everyone! And so I want to start the month by saying, I so want one of those bicycles with a front basket for Christmas (yes, I'm talking to you Jay!)

Happy weekend!

What are you up to this weekend? It's a local Holiday on Monday so that means I'd have a three-day break! Yay! Well, I dunno yet what I would be doing, but I'm pretty sure I'd be spending some quality time with my family. Ooh, I can't wait to just relax.

Happy weekend everyone! And to my American friends, hope you're having a great Thanksgiving!

Weekly ebay find: vintage victorian moire black purse

This Vintage Victorian Black Purse in silk moire is to die for! It looks both casual and elegant, but it's quite pricey for me so all I can do now is just dream and drool.

Whoever gets this is one lucky girl.

Thrifted vintage bangles

I am so loving this vintage bangles that I thrifted from a recent Christmas bazaar. Isn't it quite lovely? You should start visiting bazaars now while they're all over the metro! World Trade recently opened for the Holiday season and though it's quite packed, it's totally worth it!
