'Hospitality' is this southern girls middle name

There is so much fun to be had in

PLAYING DRESS-UP

~ and putting on some VINTAGE GLAM for a day with girlfriends ~

My sequined silk dress, $12 from a vintage shop.

Mrs. Sparkles duponi silk dress, a mere $7 at a thrift store.

Can you believe I had to pay $5 more and there's not one bit of fur on mine?!?

-

Added a bit of tulle off to the side

{and some feathers on my thrift store vintage black velvet and fur trimmed hat}

I am so thankful this Christmas for the gift of sparkling

and someone to play dress-up with

(as my husband will not even wear a tie)

I hope that once in a while you too will throw caution to the wind

and wear something that is glamourous and fabulous

just because it is so

FUN

(I wonder what the women thought who were there and don't know us though,

as my usual wardrobe is jeans ~ and Mrs. Sparkles wears clothes she can clean the barn in)

Wishing all my SPARKLING blogging friends

a

very

Merry Christmas

filled with light and hope,

may you hear the angels halelujuahs

that have rung out through the centuries

from the night they announced our Lord's birth

to the shepherds

with their sheep.

Glory   to   God

in  the   highest!

and peace on earth, goodwill to all!
