It's Penny!

It's been awhile since Penny made an appearance on my blog, so I am dedicating this entire post to her and her adorableness!

Obsessed with:

-iPod cords
-balled up socks
-string, yarn, thread ( this almost killed her in Dec. so trust me...all thread and string like things are kept under lock and key)
-cleaning herself
-the bathtub

Diet:

Penny is a very picky eater. She is a light muncher and does not over eat. She eats a steady diet of wet food ( Wellness Turkey) and nibbles on Wellness dry food sometimes during the day and in between meals. We feed her treats a few times a week...My Mighty Lion all Natural treats.

Favorite Toys:

-Her red tunnel
-Kong Wubba rattle
-tennis ball
-Balled up socks

Penny is spoiled. She is a princess and it's all my fault. I wake up every morning without fail around 5-5:30am to feed her her Wet food. I even mush it up nicely and add a bit more water to make it even yummier and sloppier for her.

Her litter box is cleaned out EVERYDAY and I add Arm & Hammer litterbox deodorizer as well. (best thing invented)

She waits by the door for me everyday and zooms out into out apt. hallway. I used to get nervous but now I just let her bound up and down it a few times.

She is super shy around people and even hisses sometimes in defense ( this all stems from her 2 back to back surgies as a kitten..she thinks everyone except Taylor and I are Vets) but she is super lovey dovey and cuddly with us, moreso me.

Have any Penny Questions???

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.

Vintage Cross Stitch Patterned Full Circle Skirt

Vintage Navy Wool dress with peter pan collar

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.

Dress: Dear Creatures via Modcloth

Beret: Tiny Toadstool

Loafers: Thrifted

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.

High Five Seven

When a High Five just isn't enough... ( like basically something amazing happened).
