NUU NUU! New Tea With Gladys!
I have a slew of new items available up on the shop this week. Take a little peek seek and continue to peek and seek all week As I will have many more things that would enjoyed being peeked and seeked at. And a huge thank you to my lovely sister Hilary for making the clothes look even prettier.

Hey there sailor!
OH MY LANNNN!! I officially purchased & received my first dear creatures dress!!! I've been oooohing and ahhhing over their amazing selection of garments for ever and ever and a year or two. However they just recently introduced international shipping so now I have full access to their adorable goods any time I want/ when the budget allows.
I snagged this Mia dress via Modcloth as they carry a selection of dear creatures odds and ends. Perfect for fall...Perfect for life in general really.

dining, whining & loafers
SO. I have had my black dining table for about 5 years now. I have been complaining/whining forever how the scratches, deep marks and moving wounds ( if you've moved, some of your furniture is bound to have these inexplicable marks) were making the table look hidious.
I tried to make it look cuter by making a table runner, buying mixed matched chairs ( yippe for $3 vintage vinyl!) and decorating with a plethora of my favorite salt and pepper shakers. But to no avail, nothing could make my small dining nook look inviting. UNTIL I BOUGHT A CAN OF WHITE PAINT. So simple. I've painted every other refurbished piece in my place so why didn't I do this earlier??!!
Anyway after 2 days and 4 coats later I am MUCH more pleased with this discounted set. The only thing I need to do is buy/sew new seat covers. People warned me when I bought the crisp white set from Ikea. ( there are only so many times you can flip them)
AND I think my vintage vinyl chairs fit much better with the new look.
On that lovely note, and flipping things around..here is a little outfit post. It may be fall but it doesn't mean skirts are gone. Or collars. Or sheer cream floral things either.
Everything was a little ebay find...including my brand new Bass Loafers. My fall shoe. My fall love.
