1940's vintage

For some reason this never posted as scheduled!

A few years back, I was fortunate enough to travel to Hawaii (Oahu) to see my best friend and her family. One humbling experience I had while there was a trip to Pearl Harbor (the USS Arizona). I don't want to write a play-by-play of the tour, but it's one of those life changing experiences that is never forgotten.

The 1940's was a different time. I'm sure most women didn't have time to think about what to wear, they had to attend to the needs of their family and their community! The men were away at war, and the women began to take over.

Those women used the clothing they already had available to them, and they managed to remain beautiful. I do believe that all women of that era had inevitable style and class.

That's what makes 1940's vintage so appealing!

As in Lauren Conrad.

I've been reading the L.A. Candy Series,

and I'm completely hooked.

I've learned of this darling series from one of my fellow bloggers,

but I don't remember which one-sorry.

So thank you to whomever it was that had these books

listed on their blog.

I'm on book three and I'm sad it's almost over.
update: i finished the book last night

If you have not read any of the books, and you like young adult girly books,

this series is for you my friend.

I never watched Laguna Beach or The Hills,

but I now consider myself a L.C. fan.

So considering that today is Thankful Thursday

I'm thankful for good books

and cute clothes! 

Here are some of my favorite items from L.C.'s collection @ Kohl's,

LC Lauren Conrad Asymmetrical Rosette Charmeuse Dress

LC Lauren Conrad Brushstroke Chiffon Dress

LC Lauren Conrad Floral Chiffon Top

LC Lauren Conrad Gold-Tone Simulated Pearl Cluster Drop Earrings

LC Lauren Conrad Textured Open-Front Cardigan

LC Lauren Conrad Vermont Peep-Toe High Heels

LC Lauren Conrad Rosette Chiffon Top

LC Lauren Conrad Silver-Tone Leaf Drop Earrings

LC Lauren Conrad Soutache Embellished Top

 I'm thinking the first dress would make a cute little number for me to wear on Easter.

What books have you read lately, 

and what could you see yourself wearing?
What are you thankful for?

welcome to all my new followers! 
don't forget to leave me your blog link, so i can check you out

This is me today



and here's another one

Nothing special about these photos right?

No makeup, pretty clothes, dangling earrings, or fancy styled hair.

So why did I post these pics?

Because when I look this

all natural

 I feel...

 S E X Y!

I'm in my own zone, and when I'm in this place I'm fearless.

I'm confident

and

I'm oh so comfortable!

I love hoodies and yoga pants.

So as you enjoy this weekend remember to do something that makes you feel and look sexy!

Stay Sweet!
