This past saturday, my family went to a local beach, where we saw a retirement community playing under the trees. One group in particular caught my family's attention- a circle of elderly women playing some form of "Hot Potato." I honestly wish I took a picture of it- there was even bubbles in the air. And this brings me to my love of- old ladies. I can honestly say I am not one of those people who will cling to their youth because, well, I think I'll be at my prime when I'm somewhere around the age of 75. Everytime I see an adorable old lady I get WEAK IN THE KNEES :)
I have become very much addicted to AMC's tv series "Mad Men," the show about an advertising agency in the 1960s. Besides its incredible plot, the visuals are really stunning. I am pretty much in love with the fashions of that era now. Let's take a look at the leading ladies- JOAN- the curvy gorgeous seductive secretary. I think it's impossible to not have a style crush on her PEGGY- The mousy secretary turned copywriter whose style is very school-girlesque and prim BETTY- the main character's beautiful wife who is constantly compared to Grace Kelly. Such a lovely housewife, no?
Oh ladies of Mad Men, how you make me want to run to my nearest thrift store and go on a spending spree ;)
ha. so much for the promise of the last post :P I wish I could say I've been doing amazing things that prevented me from blogging, but to be honest, besides work and spending time with family and friends, I've been slumming it. This is the most creative thing I've done all summer ;) BUT maybe this is the halfway point and the second half of summer I'll be inspired and motivated....but then again...maybe not. Either way, stay cool in the heat! I hear putting undies in the freezer is the way to beat a heat coma. That or you could get air conditioning.....
