Blindingly blooming bright

 I purchased this dress from Etsy for $15 on June 5th. I loved the brightness and pattern. Once it arrived I tried it on and (Eeeep it was a little tight in the chest area.) I SWEAR I measured properly!!! I have NO CLUE why it was too tight. But now 2 months later and after a few shed pounds. I was able to finally wear my Etsy purchase.
 The Mr. is afraid of Bee's and apparently he saw a bee flying around these flowers where I wanted to take a pic. He said "I hope the bee doesn't sting you." I made this face, making fun of him. saying "AHHHH I got stung."

 These pics are taken at a park near my house. This area of the park is called butterfly garden because they fill it with all sorts of flowers. (What you like my white tights??) Those aren't tights... those are my legs!!! *LOL* I swear my legs are Spf 50 naturally.

Now I haven't spent ANY time tanning this summer. We have had alot of sun ... but laying outside in the dry heat doesn't tickle my fancy. I am usually in the pool splashing around trying to cool off.
*Hundreds of yellow flowers*
 On my patio

*A little too much to drink*

On my last Blog post Lakota said:
Ooh I want to learn yours and Sarah's fairy magic with photoshop!

I don't know about what Sarah uses but I just use PicMonkey most of the time for my photo editing.
Which can be found here!

*EVIL COCONUT*
Happy Friday!! I hope you all have a fabulous weekend. I am hoping I have better luck with garage saling tomorrow than I have had the past couple Saturdays.

Mrs. Magnolia would love to be Don Drapers Secretary


Mrs. Magnolia sat in a park on a bench reading her favorite cookbook and trying to figure out what to cook her Husband for dinner.


 The book (The Family Circle Fish & Poultry Cookbook  1955)


 "Oh what's this Mrs. Magnolia found?" A Lobster dish!


 She then headed back for home and stopped to take some pictures in the trees..


Thank heavens for her Mastercraft purse


and Petticoat


"Would you like a coffee Mr. Draper?"

I have had this dress for awhile now and was waiting for the perfect time to wear it.
Since Mad Men season 5 premiered this week I thought it would be perfect.
BUT HEY!! I haven't watched it yet... "Why??" Because it's been so long since it was last on the Hubs and I decided to Re-watch it from Season 1. Right now I am in the middle of season 2...
SO NO SPOILERS *lol*


 Mrs. Magnolia loves to make faces. But when her husband is taking the photo and sees the face made on the still image in the camera he looked up over the camera to see what his wife is doing.


 Which made Mrs. Magnolia laugh!

Later in the evening when Mrs. Magnolia switches back to Vintage Coconut this photo was taken.
In which I was making YET ANOTHER FACE...


 Did you know at one time in my life when I was little and asked what I wanted to be when I grew up I used to say a Ventriloquist. *LMAO*
I swear up and down left and right I am not joking. Whenever I think about that now it gives me a good laugh. (I was not your average child.) And I bet my parents are glad that dream did not come true. (No offense to the Ventriloquists)

P.s. Some of you were wondering what type of Cat Eyes I am looking to get in the future.
"When I said in my last post about Cat eyes with gold and rhinestone accents."
These glasses are for sale here:

These are along the lines of what I have in mind. I love the look of them, but I am all about finding a bargain and that is something that needs to be waited out.
Plus I don't know how my Man will take the news... that I am obsessed with vintage glasses.
(I have been trying to keep it a secret.)
