mango skirt, idit vintage rings, vintage clutch, rocket dog heels

last week was my birthday

i had such a nice day;

dinner with friends the night before

school with friends (i got balloons! yay) that day

a home made dinner that jesse made 

and a party at home, that weekend

it was my best birthday yet :)

 

my grandma bought me this summery pleated skirt

which i'm sure i'm going to wear endlessly in the upcoming months 

she also bought me this gorgeous and delicate vintage ring

that i'm wearing on my pinky

today was a really warm day

and i felt like wearing something really colorful

so i chose this top

which my grandma hand sewed

when she was in the british army, in egypt

in ww2 !!

yes, it's 60+ years old

and it's still in mint condition

this was also an opportunity to unveil my latest 

jesse, swarley and i all had fun playing in the park

(as you may notice - i spruced swarley's leash and collar up for spring) 

and speaking of jesse - 

i just wanted to thank you so much, my shmovely

for being as perfect as you are,

my best friend, best husband, best everything

i love you so

and congrats on your new job!

to swarley, i'm wishing a happy summer

full of playtime with her friends

and full of naps and spooning with us

to lola, i'm wishing
a happy birthday (tomorrow she's turning 5!)

many happy sunbaths

many opportunities and reasons to purr

and that swarley would be a little less hyper

and cause her to run (hysterically) a little less

(though she did lose 2 pounds thanks to those runs) 

and to you, my super amazing readers

i'm wishing an amazing summer

that's not to hot or muggy

and that all your private wishes would come true! 

last but not least - 

a sneak peak at our vintage library
(which my beloved late grandpa made some 50 years ago)

which is going to appear here soon 

have a happy monday
