It is a little dated now, especially the first series but it is lots of fun and is really good on strong female characters which makes a fabulous change.

I love art deco illustrations, photos, art, jewelry, you name it really, so much. Wearing mostly 40s and 50s styles, I don't get to sport pieces from that era all that often, so adore all the more that I can delve into my passion for them through my blog. <br /><br />I hope you're doing well and having a great start of spring, dear gal!<br /><br />Big hugs,<br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-43869876439027469592015-03-25T17:09:13.851-07:002015-03-25T17:09:13.851-07:00Thank you very much, sweet Cris!

It's so rare to see a fashion or lifestyle magazine cover, especially a mainstream one, these days that even comes close to be as breathtakingly beautiful as your average vintage one. Now it seems the focus is usually on the hot celeb of the moment or a super slender model wearing something off the runaway that doesn't apply to 99.9999% of women's lives or daily wardrobes. Thank goodness we have quite an abundance of vintage ones, online and off, to turn to for inspiration and even art (prints, salvaged from damaged magazines, etc) still these days. <br /><br />Too funny! You know, while certainly aware of it, I never watched that series. Kind of amazing, when I think about it, how much anything related to the supernatural and certainly to Halloween has always appealed to me. <br /><br />Big hugs & many thanks for your great comment,<br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-90813040681938602582015-03-25T00:55:52.775-07:002015-03-25T00:55:52.775-07:00That Judge cover is really beautiful.

The lipstick advert is very clever too but I am afraid the name Angelus just makes me think of Buffy the vampire slayer! I loved that series!

Knowing our mutual love of the colour green, it instantly made me think of you. Ooohh, speaking of green, I've noticed that the UK vintage inspired brand Lindy Bop has been stocking more and more green items lately, which is great, because we both know how rare they can be in the repro/vintage inspired world. <br /><br />Thank you very much! I hope that you have a warm, wonderful, seriously happy spring!<br /><br />Huge hugs,<br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-14812751633279358552015-03-24T10:58:12.783-07:002015-03-24T10:58:12.783-07:00Oh the funny bunny image made me smile :) Oh the funny bunny image made me smile :) Lorenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16720997862417551402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-50641957266750234002015-03-24T10:22:46.190-07:002015-03-24T10:22:46.190-07:00I love red all year long, and what I fell in love ...I love red all year long, and what I fell in love with here were the nails in the jewellery ad, the green suit in the fabric ad (I would love to own a set like that), and the red lips of course.

When I lived in Calgary, spring rarely arrived in full force until May and I remember having snow in June even once. Back in Ontario, it was usually late April or early May, too. <br /><br />I hope that spring decides to show up early for you in Alaska this year. I can just imagine how much you must be missing the feeling of sunshine and the ability to venture out without super heavy duty winter garb. <br /><br />Thinking of you and sending lots of hugs & joyful springtime wishes your way,<br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-68487446672289998902015-03-23T17:39:19.386-07:002015-03-23T17:39:19.386-07:00That's awesome, Debra!

Red has become my signature colour in recent years and it's fairly rare for me to go more than a couple of outfit posts in a row now without at least a touch of it appearing.

We don't have a particularily large number of ladybugs (aka, ladybirds) around these parts so they aren't one of the first things that spring to mind for me when the warm weather returns. There were oodles of them though when I was a young girl growing up in towns near Vancouver. Now I'm lucky to see four or five usually all summer long here in the dry Okanagan Valley (though I don't doubt for a moment that if I had a garden, we'd get more of them). They've always been one of my favourite insects and I love it when you luck out and have one land on you. <br /><br />Thank you very much, my precious friend. I hope that you have a sunny, fantastic first (full) week of spring, too!<br /><br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-5950357362578185382015-03-23T16:56:21.949-07:002015-03-23T16:56:21.949-07:00Same here - big time!!!

It's versatility is top-notch and I love that it seems to be a feel good colour, too, in the sense that is often perks up my mood when I wear it. In the outfits you've shared with us that included red, I've always thought that it looked fantastic on you, dear gal. <br /><br />Wishing you a beautiful first (full) week of spring!<br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-46513221867685806232015-03-23T16:49:05.294-07:002015-03-23T16:49:05.294-07:00Thank you very much, my lovely dear.

I'm sure you can relate to some degree living in Canada. Even though we now have 12 hrs, 45min of daylight (hallelujah), we are still in temperatures of the mid 30's at the warmest during the day. We did hit 46 degrees once last week and you'd have thought it was 80. Children went to school without jackets and too many grownups were seen wearing shorts and t's. For me, it can feel like such a tease to see the rest of the world (or at least, the northern hemisphere) melting and blooming into spring. However, it's good to know that we are heading in the right direction. I may not be able to break out my lovely red ballet flats just yet but they are ready and waiting. <br /><br /><b><a href="http://www.sheknitsinpearls.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">She Knits in Pearls</a></b> Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14321740673038769138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-61404569629731338982015-03-23T08:30:11.311-07:002015-03-23T08:30:11.311-07:00I'm in the middle of sewing a red pencil skirt...I'm in the middle of sewing a red pencil skirt and I tried it with my navy and white polka dot blouse and thought how perfectly summerish feeling.
