Looking back on my teenage years, I recall my Mother's love of the color "pink".

The rosy color gave her so much pleasure whether it was her fashion styles, home decor, or lipstick(s). The color seemed to surround her with happiness.  Being at that somewhat rebellious age, I naturally HATED the color pink!  YUCK, was my first impression when she showed me her new pink fluffy bath towels or her pretty pink lace blouse.  Why couldn't she choose another color (?) ~ for goodness sake, there was a rainbow of colors to choose from!

As the years go by, my ideas and "likes" have changed. I find myself looking at the-once-dreaded pink in a new light.  The color started to sneak into my pallet with the purchase of a soft pink glossy lipstick.  Then I found an adorable pink purse with a rose on the front that I couldn't pass up.  Before I knew it, the faded pink peony nightgown with the softest lace was hanging in my closet.

 

Things I love....

A passion for clothing ~ no matter what the season. Celebrate style!

Oh, for the love of purses, big or small, square or round....

Flowers, pure & simple

It's always so much fun when I find something I really love....like this very pretty mantle clock!

Then again I can't pass by a gorgeous hat without my heart going "a flutter".

A few simple words of endearing love...

Soon the chapter in the book will come to a close but the ending is ever so clear. You have so much to look forward too. Your life is just beginning as an independent young woman. You have many options but you don't have to decide right away. Some of your talents....you are amazing in front of the camera.

You create magic behind the camera. You capture the essence of beauty....behind the lens.
