Selling The Lake & Stars

Just thought I'd pop by. I was hoping to be happily updating this blog on a regular basis again by now, but persistently cold & rainy weather + dark skies = no photo ops! But I do have a couple of intriguing, post-worthy items up on ebay right now. If you've been reading this blog for a long time, you might remember my Lake & Stars obsession. Well, last year I was able to get my hands on the "Truce" camisole via Gilt Groupe, final sale, and it didn't fit!

It is just too dreamy, and I'm so sad it didn't work out. I'm offering it for half of what I paid for it, right here.

I also have this sweet, Edwardian/20's-inspired silk camisole from Guess! It's something I used to love, but no longer fits.

Only $9.99, right here.

Thanks for having a look!

Snooty poodle is very snooty.

Remember how I told you that I have a weakness for kitsch? I wasn't kidding - I have so much more to show you! So very, very much more. One kitsch staple for which I have been hunting (for years!) is a poodle figurine. I like 'em a lot, and they are plentiful, but none of them have really SPOKEN to me, ya know? Until I met Snooty Poodle at an estate sale a couple of months ago. Snooty poodle.

Snooty Poodle is very smart; you can tell because she wears glasses. I think she might work in a library. She is also obviously quite fashionable, and takes pride in her pink organza ribbon and luxurious fur. She thinks she's better-dressed and more dignified than me.

I realize that she was a questionable purchase at best, and more than a little bedraggled, but she only cost me a dollar. And the best part? She makes me smile every time I walk past her! That's worth more than a dollar and some embarrassment, yo!
