Vintage OOTD

When my grandmother passed away a year ago I got to go through her closet and find some vintage gems. She had a lot of clothing that was from my great grandmother, grandma Landsdown. Grandma Landsdown defiantly knew fashion and it worked out in her favor because she was able to afford it. Back in those times it was very hard to come by money and fashion just was not in the cards for a lot of people. 

Thankfully grandma Landsdown was well off so I can have her hand me downs!!! 
The polka dotted blouse in the images below belonged to my grandmaw Landsdown. I can not believe there is not one stain or one wrinkle on/in this blouse. It is seriously in amazing condition. 

What do you think? Not bad for a vintage blouse huh?

OCTOBER


It is that time of year again to open up your windows and let fall in. There is something so magical and so mysterious about fall. It`s the way the leaves change from green to red to orange to yellow. It`s the way the air is so cool and crisp. It`s the way you can smell and taste it in the air. It’s the way the fair lights twinkle in the night and the feeling of being a child again for just a moment. Fall is that one time of year when a normal pile of burning leaves just smells so different. It`s a feeling that warms the heart and cleanses the soul. It`s something I personally can never live without.

This feeling of fall makes me want to decorate my house from top to bottom like I would for Christmas but with Halloween and fall décor. It makes me want to purchase every single pumpkin spice candle in the world. And carving pumpkins is just the beginning. I have to literally bake everything that is Halloween and fall related. I just can`t help it. Oh and I don’t know about you but my TV channel is on ABC Family 13 days of Halloween… and you can guarantee that! I also enjoy a great ghost classic on TCM. And the best part of it all is being able to share these moments, these tastes and smells and your heart with the ones you love.
One of my all time favorite movies

I wanted to let you in my heart a little today and let you see what I am feeling. I cannot wait to share all my fall adventures with you all. Stay tuned for the festivities to come.

Please comment below and let me know how your heart feels this time of year. Let me know your traditions that you have to do. Who knows I may adopt some of them for my own.
I will leave you with some photos of my previous years.
