A Very Vintage Baby

I just found these baby photos of my daughter Bea the other day. These photos combine so many things I love: gingham, lace, red, amazing collars, Beatrix, baby, beauty, and vintage baby dresses.

Picnic Dress

Last weekend was so much fun. On Sunday we all went to a special event at our favorite winery, Cantiga. They were pouring their library wines.  It was such a beautiful day and they even had a bounce house set up for the children. Beatrix had quite a few cups of pinot noir grape juice and amazingly didn't spill a drop.

I couldn't resist sort of matching our outfits. I love this sundress. The pattern makes me want to have a picnic every time I wear it. I found it last month thrifting at a nearby store.  I am pretty much done with school for the summer. I still have to show up for a couple of weeks but all my papers and presentations are done and the finals are optional.   

Today I went on a thrift store mission to find 4 gifts for family members and scored so hard. I found an authentic gunne sax dress for $3 and a vintage bead clutch for $5! I'm going to post some pics of the gifts I think. Bea also got pink sandals and a backpack (like Dora) that she's has been wanting. It was incredible because she just lost one of her pink sandals yesterday and to find an immediate replacement at a thrift store is pretty unheard of.
We are going to finish watching the film, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest with Jack Nicholson tonight Has anyone seen this? I really like it so far. Also the feature on Veronika should be tomorrow and it is fantastic. I love conducting interviews and will definitely do more beyond the contest.
