Golden Girls

From Sasha

Yes, we're at it again… your late afternoon girls at Empire Mine State Park! The gold in these hills built this fabulous mansion and grounds, and now it helps us to build our Etsy Empire– hee hee! Check out all these ridiculously yummy goodies, coming to the shop tonight, if my mother-in-laws chocolate cookies can keep me awake long enough to upload everything:

Yes, it's a Gunne… start the covetous sighing.

Do these earrings look familiar? Sharing is Caring!

I should SO have a beer stein in my hand:

We love this trellis, which must have been made for climbing vines; it kind of looks like a giant parasol behind Amber:

Do I not get out enough? This photo is my idea of funny: "Amber, pretend you're talking on the phone!" Yup.

The newly coronated Tropical Queen:

Fall is coming and cozy is just starting to seem fun again… especially in this fuzzy little dream poncho.

Amber gets in touch with her roots:

Alice in Wonderland has never gone out of style in my mind, and I am so glad that she will be back in the public consciousness with the forthcoming Tim Burton movie. This dress has the total Alice vibe… just waiting for a trippy ride down a rabbit hole!

This open-weave sweater has the best label ever: "Inspiration"- with a star. Hells yes!

And the "model's hair toss". Don't hate me because I'm beautiful, as the Pantene model used to say!

Back to school, on the plane or the train, or just hanging out looking like there are important and mysterious things in your paisley bag:

Cozy-coze!

These shoes are in perfect shape! I would have thought they were new except for the distinctly 60s font on the label!

Cold chillin':

Amber christened this one the Forest Fairy Dress, and I couldn't agree more.

Champagne wishes and pretty-dress dreams!

In the first 4 questions of quiz, please rank all the answer’s options, with the number of stars correspondent to your rank agreement, being 1 star means I don’t agree and 5 stars means I agree very much.
    It won’t take much of your time and is very important for my investigation, please click the link to access the quiz, until August 25:

    Going through a rough day/week over here and reading your blog lightened my day a bit today. That is saying something! So, thank you!
    Have a great weekend!

    I want to romp through meadows with you! These photos are so lovely, and that blue Gunne is fan-freaking-tastic!
