My girl's and I share a passion.....

We love the excitement of fashion & Accessories. My oldest daughter works magic with her hair styles. My youngest daughter shines with pretty tresses.

Together we love to shop vintage. Half the fun is finding something unique and pretty (of course).

Thank goodness my youngest puts up with me ~ she is my official hat model for my vast hat collection. It is a bonus that is she so photogenic.

It is difficult to select one specific style of clothing we like ~ the options are vast. Oh....and did I mention makeup?

We are dangerous group when we hit the Mac Cosmetic Counter! Quick....where's my Visa!

We unpacked box after box of beautiful things!

Our favorite season is almost here. Time for some ***sparkle***

Fall Has Arrived!

On a beautiful day in September, my daughter and I planned our 2011 Fall Hat photoshoot.  We both agreed Cultus Lake would be our destination as we envisioned brightly colored leaves blowing in the wind.

We drove all around the lake, checked out campsites, pulled off the road numerous times but we were unable to find just the right spot. 

As the sun was starting to go down behind the mountain and the light was shifting we knew we had better find our destination pretty quick.

Oddly enough, if I wasn't so stubborn and listened to my daughter's original suggestion ~ we could have spent less time (and gas) driving all over the place! So there we were, no leaves in sight, just the two of us as the end of the dock. The lighting was perfect. The breeze rippling over the Lake & the photo's.....well, they turned out perfectly!

Celebrate with feminine pretty touches ~ a lace scarf, a classic hat, and jewelry!  Create your own unique style and have fun with the treasures that you find~ at The Button Box.

This once sad looking chair transformed into a pretty vanity chair ~ fit for a princess!

A touch of inspiration. My favorite decorating style ~ French Country. A little bit of shabby, a hint of glamor, and eclectic accessories add the finishing touch.

Time for our Girl's Get-Away. We planned and planned, changed our schedules, emailed back & forth. We wanted everything to be perfect!

I loaded up the Van, had a quick Pedicure (thanks Gwen), then drove to White Rock to pick up Laurie.

We arrived at our destination after a nice ferry ride, beautiful sunny skies, and much anticipation. A huge "thank you" to Jen....who is our "mother hen"....she had a buffet of snacks waiting for us!

Tighnamara Spa is amazing! A perfect spot for relaxation and gorgeous scenery.  We walked the beaches, had amazing spa treatments, laughed till we cried, A Tapas meal fit for a "Queen". 

We "toasted" our Sue (who we know was with us in spirit). Then we made plans for our next Get-Away....perhaps an Okanagan Wine Tour?  We'll see.....

Friday ~ June 3rd, 2011    Thank you to my many friends who visited my shop today. Celebrating my 5th Anniversary with you was wonderful!  I will continue to find beautiful unique items for you to enjoy and as for the hats ~ the styles just keep getting better and better!
