Plus, I absolutely ADORE flea markets and swap meets. I just went to the Pasadena City College Swap Meet last Sunday and picked up some very cool stuff: an Eastern Star teacup (I am not an Eastern Star, but my great grandmother was, and I love items with stories), A GORGEOUSLY hand-embroidered strawberry doily from Belgium (circa 1930s), some adorable silver post earrings that look like robots, with tiny crystal eyes, and two tres beautiful pairs of shoes for $10 apiece. I could not help but go into description. Anyhoo, as you can probably see, I don't limit myself with what I buy at swap meets, except by price and quantity. I don't think there is anything I wouldn't buy secondhand that I would buy new. I rarely go looking for a specific thing- that takes away half the fun. In the past, I've bought everything from a sewing machine to sequin earrings from the '80s to a Lily Ann Dress Suit (score!). <3 Well, as late as I am in finding this story, I love responding to your questions anyway.

I remember one of my old 6th grade teachers, and his wife had the greatest names: Mr. White, and she kept her name, becoming Mrs. Black. It was great!

I love looking through antique stores for 1960's-80's jewelry (my FAVORITE!) also yard sales for vintage home decor and jewelry. I draw the line at used undies and socks, though. check out these AWESOME boots I found at a yard sale for $0.50!!! http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3212/2775500682_96a222d488.jpg I hit thrift stores if I’m in the mood to rummage…I usually look for tops and pants and sometimes bags.

It's so gorgeous in these photos! Are you blow drying? What kind of styling products are you using? Do you use a curler or anything? Thanks, A. Dear Doe,

How are you styling your hair? It’s so gorgeous in these photos! Are you blow drying? What kind of styling products are you using? Do you use a curler or anything?

Thanks,
