Liebster Blog Award No. 2!

I have been given another award by the lovely Mrs Jaime! This is the second blog award I've been given, and am so grateful.
 
(Here is the first Liebster Blog award I recieved)
.   .   .   .   .   .   .
 
Here are the questions Lili gave me:

1 - What is your favorite film from the silver screen era?
I like a lot of them, but I love 'I Remember Mama' with Irene Dunne, and 'The Heiress' with Olivia de Havilland and Montgomery Clift.

2 - What's the number one thing from your closet you can't live without and why?
Tank tops! I have them in various colors and shades so I can wear sheer blouses without looking like a hot mess!


3 - Who is your most influential, style icon from the past and from today?
My great-grandma, Evie.


4 - What is your guilty pleasure?
I can't pass a pretty glass bottle or cute old photo in an antique store without getting my money out!

5 - What is your current obsession?
Beaded handbags and White + Black tiled baths!
6 - What is your most prized possession and how did you come about it?
Grandma Evie's Frankoma jar. It's adorable & I'm very glad it's still with my family.




7 - What famous person from the past or present do you think you look like?
Ginger Rogers, Lucille Ball and Zooey Deschanel.



8 - If you had one more day to live, how would you spend it, what would you do?
I would spend it like any other day, with my family. I don't necessarily believe in having only one life.
9 - Are you a pet lover? If so, do you own any pets?
 Yes, I am a cat person. I have a dapper tuxedo cat named Henry.


10 - If you could go back in time, where would you go and why?
I'd go to a dance in 1943 with my soldier beau and dance the night away :)


11 - Who would you like to go out to lunch with from the blogging world?
This question is like asking who your best friend is! I don't have favorites, just like I don't have a BEST friend. I enjoy every vintage blogger! I'd make a tea party out of it and invite everyone!

  1. How immensely sweet and touching that your great-grandmother is your greatest style icon. I certainly love, and have been influenced by, many of the fashions worn by yesteryear starlets, but it real world women of the 30s-50s have always been my greatest source of vintage inspiration, too.

    Happiest congrats on receiving this fun award!
