I SEE YOU!
MY PEEK A BOO door in my front door.
H A P P Y H O L I D A Y ‘ S!!!!

The RED COAT hails from a WHITE ELEPHANT SALE years ago……..I PAID $15.00.
IT has PAID me back OVER and OVER again by the numerous compliments it gets this time of YEAR!

I kinda matched the new cushion I had made for the KITCHEN chair!
LOOK AT ME……. LOOK AT ME………..
ALWAYS two neck bits is better THAN ONE!
JUST DO IT!

ADORE MY NEW SWEATER COAT from BRYN WALKER…………

This is a THOUSAND DOLLAR SHOE……….
I just wanted to SHOW YOU what it looked like on MY 8.5 narrow foot!
I tired it on for F U N!
I had time to burn and well………….I had to know what it felt like!
YOU know what?
THEY HURT!
Made me HAPPY to leave them behind.
GORGEOUS though……………..a TRUE ROYAL SHOE.

A LITTLE LEOPARD goes along way in front of the PERSIMMON tree!
YES!
I RUN AROUND TOWN LIKE THIS………in a tiny CAR!

Since, being OFF instagram I have accomplished organizing the GLASSWARE!
There are MORE accomplishments but that is what STICKS out in my MIND at the MOMENT!

How about a HAT and a TURBAN?
No, I did NOT go OUTSIDE with this LOOK!
The Turban is a tad TOO BIG so I was trying to SECURE it with a PIN.
DIDNOT WORK.

ON INSTAGRAM my FAKE NAME is
ANTIQUE GODDESS.
WHY?
Because I was sitting in my antique shop one day trying to figure out INSTAGRAM and LA CONTESSA was taken!
SO, I came up with ANTIQUE GODDESS………..
TO BE HUMOROUS
OF COURSE!
ARI SETH COHEN has taken NOTE of me there………….!
He is the author of THE ADVANCED STYLE BOOKS.
MY TREE.
2016
OFF TO BUY WRAPPING PAPER and SCOTCH TAPE!
ENJOY ENJOY ENJOY
ALL of THE FESTIVITIES!
IT COMES BUT ONCE A YEAR SO WE MIGHT AS WELL BUCKLE UP AND ENJOY THE RIDE.
NO STRESS ALLOWED!
BE GOOD TO YOURSELF.
It will ALL get DONE.
AND
if it doesn’t NO ONE will KNOW BUT YOU!
XOXO
