Funky patterned dresses


(My Boxer on one of our walks)

It's been about a month since my last post. (Gosh time flies) In the past month the weather got alot nicer and I started going on daily walks and bike rides sometimes just one or the other.


I have still been going thrifting but probably a little less than before. This weekend will be my first garage saling weekend and I am *SO EXCITED* I cannot wait. I may not even be able to sleep on Friday night. *lol*


I took some pictures of dresses I have found in the past few weeks. Here were I live vintage is quite hard to come by whether it is 50's, 60's or 70's. So when I find it I usually purchase it then decide whether I will keep it for myself or sell it.

Black, Blue & Green


I love the tag on this one it's so darn cute!


Black, Pink & Green



I adore this dress!! This one I am for sure keeping. I have tried it on and will need to lose a couple of pounds before it fits perfectly (but hey inspiration is good!!) I have to think of it that way.. because if I don't I would give my mannequin a punch to the jaw because she fits every damn thing perfectly.



White, Orange & Black



Now this little number reminds me of Halloween candy! When I first came across it I pictured Helga http://helgavontrollop.blogspot.com then candy. Helga & Candy what a lovely combo. It's strange how things can remind you of people from blogland!


Patchwork Ruffle Bottom




I want this to be my garage saling dress. I told my Husband I will wear it so if he loses me he will not have to search everywhere. I will just stick out like a sore thumb. If I add a bit floppy straw hat that might even be better. Hell who knows maybe I would get better deals on things because people would think I was a crazy mad woman.


Sears Paisley Purple, Black & Blue



I like the detail on this one, but I am not big on the long sleeves. This is not my style at all, but someone out there in this world would probably think it was delightful.



So those are my latest dress finds. I will now end this little post... and search for a movie on Netflix.

cork dish


I wanted a corkboard in my bedroom, but not a plain brown one. I went and got some cute green paisley print fabric from Walmart and a package of tacks that have little flower pictures on them. I covered the board in the fabric and this is how it turned out. I think it's cute now I just need to keep adding stuff to it.

Today I went to a second hand shop and found this candy dish. I love it. <3
Well gotta get to bed early tonight If I am going check out a few more second hand stores tommorow.. Hopefully I will come across more nifty thing's.
