There is nothin' better than having a clean white piece of paper and a sharp pencil or great pen to doodle on, a nice crisp lined piece of parchment to write a letter to a friend or a great journal to write your thoughts in.<br />
The Inspiration behind this post is one of my closest friends Ashley, she will be taking an extended trip this summer which gives me an excuse to use all of my stationary! I can't wait to sit down with a hot cup of coffee and write a note to a <span style="color: orange;">Pal</span> with my <span style="color: orange;">Pen</span>.<br />
I hope your inspired to pick up a pen this summer and write to one of your friends because another great feeling is receiving a letter in mail! <span style="color: orange;">Sometimes you need a break from the digital world.</span><br />

I was all about love all weekend long and am still on cloud nine, hopefully nothing will dampen my mood! This weekend we were so blessed, our friend Tyler got us into Disney land for free and we were wished HAPPY ANNIVERSARY twenty one times by D-land employees because we picked up the happy anniversary pin first thing, it's free, and they have happy b-day, I'm celebrating and a I graduated pin. We were even escorted to the front of a ride line, it's a magic pin!!! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">Another fun fact about the Dunstan family is that we love music and have recently started our record collection, so we picked up a few new records this weekend, you can definitely say we are turning into record junkies when you would rather find a new record that buy a new article of clothing ahhhh... I hope this doesn't get out of hand!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">Lastly, we finished out the weekend with a fun day at the park and a mean game of frisbee<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">, so excited about our summer frisbee club! </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;"><br />

I would like to think that this collection has a great history, maybe some old man would collect a match book from each one of his many adventures or maybe he just smoked a lot, no telling for sure but whatever the reason I think I'm gonna add to this collection and collect a match book from my own expeditions. Anyways, as I was poring over this $2.00 find I was so inspired, each book has it's own style, some skinny, some fat, and some oddly shaped, the logos were equally inspiring and seeing the different font styles was the best part! Here is <b>part one of The Match Book Diaries: NAMES.</b><br />

She is a friend of mine and Jesse's and is super talented. I love her art because it's new and fresh, the idea of doing a painting a week on a theme or topic is so interesting, it's amazing to see what her mind produces. This is definitely a project I enjoy following, I hope you do to. My favorites are Week's 17, 19, & 21. Enjoy.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Amber:</b> Why did you decide to do this "flowers" project and how long are you doing it for?</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Melinda:</b> I got the idea for the "flowers" project from a friend. He was writing a short story once a week for the year. It was the first week of the year and I had just painted one flower painting and the idea hit me. So, I told my friend that I was going to steal his idea and do a flower painting once a week for the year. It was exactly what I needed to do. I had stopped painting after my first child was born almost eight years ago. For the last 3 years I have been saying, "I should start painting again." I would do maybe one painting and then that was it. Now I have made a promise and that I will keep.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I chose only to do "flowers" because I wanted to challenge myself. It would be easier if I painted whatever I wanted every week; the challenge of making flowers different each week and playing with different styles and just to practice was my goal.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Amber:</b> What or who inspires you?</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Melinda:</b> Van Gogh and Picasso (Picasso's blue period) are the two artists that have influenced me most. I also love Marc Chagall and Egon Schiele. They all have such a way to convey emotion through their art and that is what attracts me to them. Music also inspires me, the sadder the better - violins are always good (i.e.. Warren Ellis.) </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Amber:</b> How long have you been into art?</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Melinda:</b> My first memory of wanting to be an artist was in junior high. I had painted a picture of a horse that everyone loved. I remember clearly one of the teachers telling me I should be an artist. I believed her. I took art classes in high school and that's almost all I took in college. It really took me by surprise to learn you couldn't get a degree with only a bunch of art classes to show for it ;) Also, my mom was taking art classes while I was growing up and that also influenced me. She did such nice work, I wanted to too.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Amber:</b> Do you do anything else besides paint?</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"><b> Melinda:</b> I pretty much exclusively paint. I would like to do more sketching and ink work in the near future. I also love messing around with Photoshop; I can waste half a day with that program.</span><br />

<br />
First, of all here is a list of some favorite things this week/check out these quick links: Jesse and I love chairs, just the idea of sitting in a comfy leather wing back chair reading a book with a stainless steel floor lamp next to it just sounds perfect or a cozy rocking chair sounds magical! Everyone needs a good THINKIN' CHAIR! (<a href="http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/category.jsp?popId=HOME&navAction=top&navCount=6&isSortBy=true&pushId=HOME-FURNITURE&id=HOME-FURNITURE">ANTHROPOLOGIE</a>). Next quick link would be COLOR, lately Ive been loving colorful decor and yarn, I can't walk into <a href="http://www.michaels.com/">Michael's</a> or <a href="http://www.joann.com/joann/home/home.jsp">Joannes</a> without checking out what the yarn isle has to offer. As for Decor, I saw this amazing color pallet on <a href="http://www.designworklife.com/2010/04/16/color-happy-xx-16/">Design Work Life</a> (a favorite site), also check out <a href="http://www.roomservicestore.com/">Room Service</a>. Lastly, another favorite would be Fringe, for this one I typed "fringe" into google and those photos came up, so try it!<br />
<br />
Lately I've been promising a post on a recent estate sale find, I'm so excited to share it with you guys but I want to make sure I have the perfect photos and such before it's debuted. I'll keep you posted! It's definitely inspiring especially if you have a love for TYPOGRAPHY & DESIGN.<br />
<br />
Lastly, My thoughts on life. Ive been talking about this topic with a few of my friends and just wanted to document it here. The stages of life are a strange thing, sometimes people think you have to do a certain job to be successful, own your own home or have a family by a certain age and so on. Why can't we just do what we think is best for us now? Jesse and I were talking and we know that what's best for us now is to just spend time together, do what we love to do and for Jesse that would be writing and for me it would be a plethora of things (I'm all over the map), travel, scope out new towns and places and when it's time for us to add a new member to our family or buy a house it will be an added bonus! Right now I'll just have to hang out with my nephew more to get my baby fill (cutest kid ever). Do what's best for you, not what you think other people think is the right way. <span style="color: #76a5af; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"> </span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #76a5af; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I know that God has a plan for my life and so ultimately it's not what I want but what He wants for me and it's all good, like Ive said before as long as your walking than your headed in the right direction. Jeremiah 29:11</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="color: #f1c232; text-align: center;">***</div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;">Here are a few of my favorite font's as of late, they are fun and different and make all the difference when designing a fun little logo or invite! My favorite thing to do is sit with a client and get their vibe, inspirations, ideas & expectations going into a design project, it's the best when you are on the same page and are equally inspired by what you are creating for them! I've learned my lesson, I don't take gigs that don't inspire because then your doing the client a dis-service by not creating the best product you can and it's boring for the designer when you don't like what your creating! Anyways, hit me up if your in need of any branding for your biz, cards, invites, etc. Oh and here is <a href="http://www.typologieandco.com/">TYPOLOGIE & Co.'s</a> site for more inspiration. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #f1c232; text-align: center;">***</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Enjoy this fortune cookie fortune! I got it a LONG time ago and still have the little fortune on my fridge! </div><br />
Love,<br />
Jesse's Girl<br />

I found a vintage baby blue make up case,for a dollar or two last time I went, so you know you are guaranteed to find a find! </span><br />

It’s been so sunny and warm the past couple of days and was so<br />
inspired by summer!</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1wT1zaV-Ke6b3P-VWihsH6OCjOA4hKb5qU01Zhx4UWeYTilPgpcqIBig0thl6sCGe8y2D0-UlFrvPNl0P7JTn4MNmWNKm90JM8PkuP-wmt0A4VLysWiCL335AIi653q0SdcmDKzgnq9M/s1600/wed.+quick+link-blog.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1wT1zaV-Ke6b3P-VWihsH6OCjOA4hKb5qU01Zhx4UWeYTilPgpcqIBig0thl6sCGe8y2D0-UlFrvPNl0P7JTn4MNmWNKm90JM8PkuP-wmt0A4VLysWiCL335AIi653q0SdcmDKzgnq9M/s640/wed.+quick+link-blog.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"> I Featured artist in this post is <a href="http://www.coryloven.com/index.php?/work/some-girls-are-mean-print/">Corey Leven</a>, I saw him on a blog I<br />
follow recently (<a href="http://www.designworklife.com/2011/05/03/cory-loven/">design work life</a>) and followed the link to his own<br />
site. The minute I saw his prints I fell in LOVE, they are so<br />
original.<br />
<br />

<br />
*Summer Movie Recommendations:<br />
I love Edie and Andy, their style and artistic vibe makes me happy! I<br />
just watched Factory Girl with Sienna Miller and Guy Pierce, so if<br />
you’re up for an entertaining movie than you should definitely take an<br />
hour or two to watch it!<br />
<br />
Jesse and I LOVE Jerry Seinfeld, so when Bee Movie came out we were<br />
SOOOOOO excited! We definitely recommend watching this movie; it’ll<br />
crack you up!!!<br />
<br />

<br />
Blog Part TWO:<br />
<br />
I have been SO inspired by music lately and design combined with that<br />
makes me even more inspired. I shared a quick link about <a href="http://www.coryloven.com/index.php?/work/arcade-firethe-national/">Cory Leven</a><br />
above but if you don’t have time to jump over to his site check out<br />
one of his posters he created for The Arcade Fire (a fav of the Jesse<br />
Husband) and The National (a fav of mine and the husband).</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3UFP3zju6lniPLiH0wj2uC7uGBD1KV7ZGqlqG54nM8c5DHnu67ImM4sZqsv51DvMsz7iF0QBiwtF-ronCXA1msFYhEQFgoqJlhMliHVmqYgNWegBqExa17OHztx-bxthn-jqyhs23MK4/s1600/34_corylovenarcadenationalposterweb2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3UFP3zju6lniPLiH0wj2uC7uGBD1KV7ZGqlqG54nM8c5DHnu67ImM4sZqsv51DvMsz7iF0QBiwtF-ronCXA1msFYhEQFgoqJlhMliHVmqYgNWegBqExa17OHztx-bxthn-jqyhs23MK4/s400/34_corylovenarcadenationalposterweb2.jpg" width="262" /></a></div><br />

My Friend Erica is so exceptional, she has a natural designers eye, from the decor of her room to her own personal style, always put together. These photos are from her Europe trip this past summer *the upper left photo is my favorite, and the scrabble one rocks my world! She crossed the pond and went and had her self one hell of an adventure, stopping in all sorts of places, met so many new friends, and snapped photos to capture every single memory. **I had to share her photos with you because they inspire me SO much!<br />
<br />
She's not only is an amazing photographer but is also very creative, this past Christmas she made me a journal that was created out of an awesome vintage western novel and wrapped in butcher paper with a little accent of handmade flowers made from the books pages! <br />
<br />
ENJOY!<br />

Last night I got to make Jesse some home made gluten free (GF) organic chocolate chip cookies accompanied by a hot cup of organic green tea. It was the most perfect addition to our night, and we loved every second of it! First, we made some Indian food, took a stroll around the neighborhood and then came home and baked some cookies, we then put on an old western, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance! John Wayne is one of our favorite movie actors and since we have been on an old movie streak the past few month's we thought this movie would be great and it was! If you haven't seen it go and get it! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Anyways, back to my cookies, I have this cook book called The <i>Allergen-Free</i> Baker's Handbook by Cybele Pascal, it's super helpful if you have ANY kind of food allergy. I have a low tolerance for wheat and gluten so any cook book with yummy GF recipes is great! There are many different GF flour options out there; here's a <a href="http://www.wheat-free.org/wheat-free-flour.html">link</a> for some suggestions as many of the GF flour have varying flavors and taste, try them all out and use what you like best! Last night I used <a href="http://www.bobsredmill.com/gluten-free/">Bob's Red Mill</a> GF flower, Bob's Red Mill has tons of different GF product & recipes and can be found at most health food stores even Ralphs! Here's the Bob's Red Mill <a href="http://www.bobsredmill.com/recipes_detail.php?rid=121">Recipe</a> for chocolate chip cookies, It's pretty good but I would definitely recommend getting the Allergen-Free hand book! In honor of Easter, here is a <a href="http://celiacfamily.com/easter-candy/">link</a> for some GF candy. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #666666; text-align: center;">Oh! I almost forgot here's a helpful hint for those who don't bake often but crave a sweet treat every now and again: if you notice in the first photo I have ball's of dough wrapped in saran wrap. so what you do is take the left over dough roll them up into individual balls & wrap each on of them up and place them in the freezer so when you have a craving take 1 or 2 out, pop them in the oven and you have a baked treat in 10 minutes! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

For some reason everything back then seemed simpler, safer, and beautiful. Even though today we have certain styles that are specific to our era it still seems like their is still so much diversity, everyone has a certain style specific to them. I loved the style back them, everyone seemed to be classy and everyone would dress up to go out, the men and women would wear nice suits even during the day to go to work Like Mad Men! (Mad Men is definitely one of my favorites!) People nowadays wear p.j.'s & sweat's outside! No one should wear pajamas outside and sweats are definitely border line. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRfUhqDwWuEeXlm2nMm_V-57iZShbEaDL4DhhI5RLJn111ydJalLaii2XSP_b5-tGOsWcQNoPbkflZSfvqVMEceCzDLbAA1OV5gNE0M_tv9qvAzRBTEB4KrFgl8d8KOeZq4DsZ18jbms0/s1600/imageslbrooks.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="192" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRfUhqDwWuEeXlm2nMm_V-57iZShbEaDL4DhhI5RLJn111ydJalLaii2XSP_b5-tGOsWcQNoPbkflZSfvqVMEceCzDLbAA1OV5gNE0M_tv9qvAzRBTEB4KrFgl8d8KOeZq4DsZ18jbms0/s320/imageslbrooks.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />

Love Louis Brooks, definitely a classic beauty! The husband and I love her, without Jesse I wouldn't even have know who she was, definitely inspiring style wise, not to mention her silent movies! I need to watch more of those! <br />

Nothing freaks me out more than suburban track homes that look the same. I want to be more adventurous, see different things, do different things and take advantage of where we live! There are so many free things to do when your strapped for cash and you can sign up for places that offer coupons for different restaurants, museums and parks.

This photo of Bette Davis is Radical and so I just had to share it! Her hair, her make up and I just die over that leopard piece of clothing! I'm thinking I really need some new lipstick and a new dress, Check out this <a href="http://us.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33060&storeId=13052&productId=2309472&langId=-1&sort_field=Relevance&categoryId=208634&parent_categoryId=208580&pageSize=200&refinements=category%7E[223022%7C208634]&noOfRefinements=1">long dress and the orange lipstick to match! </a><br />

like they're way more simplistic and clean. I don't know what<br />
it is but I've been wanting to keep things a lot more simple<br />
lately...I am even contemplating re-painting my living room and going<br />
with a more modern look, the simple but elegant vibe just feels less<br />
chaotic right now (maybe a future post/Dunstan home<br />
remodel?). Anyways, less is more and I feel like these few types are<br />
exactly what inspire me right now, it's funny literally up until maybe<br />
two year's ago I thought a font was just a font, no big deal, but little did<br />
I know different font's a.k.a. typefaces have a history dating back to<br />
forever ago! I'm just learning and wanted to share these ones with you<br />
and hope you like them also! Oh and if your sick of what's in your library<br />

Sitting by the lake watching the duckies, taking walks, sharing chap-stick, seeing bears in the wild, discovering new coffee shops, etc.! SO FUN! One of our funnest memories was going to Coachella, we had NO money at all but we were still having a blast sort of wishing we had some cash for some junk food or something fun. Then as as we were roaming around the huge field along with thousands of other people $15.00 starts to blow by my feet, it was so exciting to find that money, things like that rarely happen to us! We couldn't believe it! It was small example of how much God cares for us by blessing us with that $15.00! It was a super great night! Below are some fun photos from back in the day when we were dating and went to Coachella! <br />

We have found some pretty promising treasures on our adventures and LOVE when we discover new things! It's the best when you find something that's super cheap but worth a lot! The best ones are the estate sales orchestrated by the home owners, family members of the home owners friends because they don't usually know what they are selling. Their are a few companies who do this who skim through the items first, take what they want and leave the junk for customers. Or sometimes antique stores will come in and snag ALL the antiques it's very frustrating!<br />
<br />
Anyways here are a few helpful hints to finding some good estate sales...<br />
<br />
-Sign up for estate sale websites so you get alerted when their is something happening in your area. <a href="http://www.estatesales.net/estate-sales/CA/Los+Angeles+++Orange+County.aspx">Click here</a> to check one out. <br />
-Scope out Craig's list.<br />
-Drive through your neighborhood and see any signs that are posted.<br />
-The penny saver is one of my favorites, it usually arrives in your mail box on Wednesdays, most estate sales start on Thursdays!<br />
-Usually companies who conduct estate sales will have a sign up sheet to alert you of any new sales in your area, SO SIGN UP! <br />
<br />
This is all I can think of so far but if you have any other ideas please share them! <br />
<br />
<br />
*here is a helpful hint when estate saleing (i know this isn't technically a word but it's how I say it): check out the sale the day it starts or Friday because normally ALL items will be on sale the last day of the sale since the people doing the sale usually wants to get rid of everything as soon as possible. The downside to this is that you are risking loosing the item. Feelin' lucky?<br />
<br />
I'll be attending some good ones this weekend and am super excited to share my finds!!!<br />
<br />
Love,<br />

God knew that Job was a faithful servant and would still praise Him if all his earthly possessions were to be taken away along with his family and this continued up until he was even physically afflicted. Sometimes it's easier said than done, sometimes you just want to know why these things are happening, what is the purpose of these irritating circumstances? Some times we never figure it out, sometimes times it's to help others, sometimes it's just to refine your character. I just know that I don't want to hold on or put my happiness and trust in possessions & people. </span><style>

I'm literally SOOOO selfish & self centered<-----Notice all those words have the word self in them. Let's not focus on our selves any more, lets focus on Jesus & Others, Let's LOVE all! One thing I've been learning is that the only way to reach people is to LOVE them. I have no clue why people think they are superior to anyone, the tragedy in Japan or any tragedy for that matter should make people realize that what we can't control anything, possessions can just disappear, status can disappear.<br />

After seeing the <a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/42064847/ns/world_news-asiapacific">before and after</a> photos of japan and the photos of people searching for the bodies of family and friends, trying to cope with the situation and doing the best they can to face the unknown, makes me Thankful for ALL I have, I shouldn't be such a complainer, someone who wants more when I already have so much and discontented to be where I am in my life.<br />
<br />
I've been learning over the past year that <span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Thankfulness produces JOY</span></span>, I challenge everyone to think of at least one thing daily they are thankful for and see if you become more joyful. <br />
<br />
Now let's see if we can reach out to others & Love others.<br />

It's funny that I would be so judgmental when I have a super minimal knowledge of music and not a very good taste myself but I did. Anyways here is my thought on my music taste as of late. Nothin special just a blurb.... ENJOY!<br />
<br />
GUILTY PLEASURE: Currently I'm obsessed with the following------> Katy Perry, Lady GaGa & another person who I'm ashamed to fess up to so just guess. I know Jesse is pulling his hair out because every time he gets in the car I have California Gurls turned up super loud for the whole world to hear! You cant listen to this song on any one of Katy's songs and not have a smile plastered across your face and have the urge to dance! <br />
<br />
My ALL TIME FAVORITE BAND would have to be Dave Matthews Band, again I don't know what it is about Dave but I love him! I remember the first time I heard him when I was a kid and my brother had bought and played CRASH [favorite song was Too Much], after that I stole the CD and kept it for my own. I don't listen to him often, but when I do get a chance to it's amazing!!! It brings back lots of memories! <br />
<br />
EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN if your looking for something new to listen to this is what I currently enjoy: The Doors, Fleetwood Mac, Led Zeppelin, (any kind of classic rock) The Beatles, Devendra Banhart, Mumford & Sons [side note: although I'm happy they are making lots of money it's a bummer they are super main stream now! I heard them on 102.7 as I was flipping through the stations! icky], The Head and The Heart, Andrew bird, Sigur Ros, Aaron Lee Martin, Radio Head, Beck, Gram parsons, Woody Guthrie, Townes Van Zandt, NICK CAVE <3, and the legendary Leonard Cohen! HANSON is good <3 <br />
<br />

<br />
Some of my favorite pieces of clothes would be the ones with an Indian Textile design, I LOVE it, it's super folky and fun! I recently spotted a super cool rug at Ikea that I desperately wanted but couldn't justify spending $100 on. I adore my slouchy sweater that I purchased at H&M for $34.00 it's navy blue, light pink, and light blue , I suppose this will make up for the rug!<br />
Anyways, the fashion world has been inundated with this type of pattern along with leather bags, fringe & feathers all last season, again another style from another era has burst on the scene and adopted as our own and like I said in a previous post, created it into own personal fashion. The perfect example of this will have to be this leather purse I found at a thrift store in my area it has little painted flowers it from the 70's, it was approximately $12.00 (purchased before forever 21 came out with the same one, not vintage I might add a year and a half later) I seriously get every women over the age of 45 commenting on it saying how they used to have the same exact one when they were my age except they always add the tag line "except I also had a belt that matched!". This was one of my favorite finds! Anyone can create a statement with just one piece they are proud of, this purse was just one of mine!<br />
<br />
Next Season---->full of color!<br />
<br />
It's always fun to share your most prized finds and hope to share more in the future! Hope you liked this little blurb today, I just had it on my mind!<br />
<br />
Love,<br />
