Long From: Reasons for and the Transition To California

July 10, 2017, 13 Comments on Long From: Reasons for and the Transition To California

When I asked what you wanted to see on the blog, someone asked to share our transition to Southern California from Oregon, and discuss if there were any regrets, differences between the two locals, and any tips for those thinking of moving. I’ve been working on this post for awhile, but was on the fence…

Greetings from Portland

March 27, 2017, Leave a Comment on Greetings from Portland

Patrick and I are in Portland for a couple of days for his work, and I tagged along to spend some time with friends, see my dad, and do a bit of shopping. I felt it was a perfect opportunity to share more of my vintage postcard collection! This time I bring you vintage Portland…

A Return to the Rose City

November 3, 2014, 4 Comments on A Return to the Rose City

After only a month in Orange, Patrick and I had to make a trip back to Portland. Our trip was mainly for a friend’s wedding, but also for Patrick’s work, and it also happened to fall around the time of the October antique show at Portland’s Expo Center. I honestly didn’t find too much at…

Brunch Time

September 15, 2014, 11 Comments on Brunch Time

Well, the moving countdown continues! We are exactly a week away now! I’ve been continuing to pack as well as make time for all of my friends who still want to hang out before we hit the road. And over the weekend we did some of that, meeting up with Suzanne (of Sweetie Suz) and…

Aloha Portland

September 10, 2014, 17 Comments on Aloha Portland

In this case, “Aloha” means “Goodbye”. Last night Patrick and I had a small going-away party at one of our favorite bars in town, Hale Pele. The fabulous tiki atmosphere I felt was fitting as we were traveling to a more tropical climate, and it gave me a very good excuse to wear my new-to-me…

Cupcakes & Cowboys

July 3, 2014, 13 Comments on Cupcakes & Cowboys

Oh my, it’s been awhile hasn’t it? Well, truth be told, I really haven’t been feeling all that great. I had a recent visit to the dentist and I’ll spare you the unpleasantness, but I was in a bit of pain. Then shortly after I wrenched my neck somehow! So I just wasn’t in the…

“Tell ’em Howard Hughes Said So”

June 23, 2014, 17 Comments on “Tell ’em Howard Hughes Said So”

Over the weekend one of my favorite movies showed at The Hollywood, Disney’s The Rocketeer. It was an early afternoon screening, so I decided to go for a more casual look, instead of getting gussied up. The Rocketeer remains one of my favorite films over the years for its endearing characters and great story, and while…

99W goes Digital

May 17, 2014, 9 Comments on 99W goes Digital

Last summer drive-ins across America faced a crisis: switch to digital or go dark. Thirty-five millimeter film met the cutting room for the final time at the end of 2013, and many drive-ins had not been able to make the costly switch to digital, but a savor showed up in the form of Honda. Honda, under…

Go for Launch

April 9, 2014, 5 Comments on Go for Launch

Last night Patrick and I got a pleasant mid-week treat, one of our favorite bands, The Phenomenauts, who I’ve blogged about before, rolled into town for an evening of space themed rockabilly. I never get tired of seeing these guys. They always put on a great show, complete with lasers, fire extinguishers and a toilet…

The Dusty 45s

February 1, 2014, 5 Comments on The Dusty 45s

Last night, Patrick and I joined Sarah of Simply Vintage for a night at Doug Fir seeing The Dusty 45s. This outfit contains two of my more recently acquired prized possessions; the wool fringe vest and the Kachina doll ring.  The vest I picked up a local rummage sale for a mere $5! I was…

I highly recommend a visit! Especially on the Fourth of July! 💥 You can also see my pics of it (including past Fourth or July ensembles) on the blog!

  • It has come time to bid the Redhead in Pirates as we know her farewell. I have complex feelings on the change, but change is the only constant.

  • Tonight is the end of an era. @donthebeachcomberhb closes. I’m currently working on my blog post from our final visit. But here is a snap that won’t appear on the blog, thanks to @disney_darling_lady who snapped this pic of me and the elusive @patrickarlt who is normally behind the camera! Stay tuned for the blog post! 🌺
  • Heartbroken right now. 💔 The best parasols, and therefore the ones that were best for my creations are no longer being manufactured. Or at least I believe so. I had recently ordered a bundle and what arrived was not what I ordered. 😡 Turns out the company that was the only one selling the best ones was bought out by a company that produced the decent enough parasols (but still had issues) and they no longer provide the best ones, and I cannot find them elsewhere online. 😭 I went through three different styles (and price points!) before finding the best one - one that didn’t routinely arrive with multiple broken or torn parasols (I bought in bulk!) and didn’t bleed! The most noticeable difference between the best and the middle level is the handle, which you’ll see in the last photo. If you see parasols with the handle on the right, which is more elaborate, please, please, PLEASE let me know!!! 🙏🏻 Thank you! In the meantime I’ll try to work with what I have and see how it goes...

  • Yesterday I celebrated my birthday (even though it’s not until the 21st which is Dapper Day weekend!) among several other April babies. We decided to bound as classic Disney characters and Marissa and I bounded as my favs, Chip and Dale! Marissa is just as fun as Dale and I can be just as stubborn as Chip. It was a perfect fit! And the boys themselves quite liked our Disneybounds! ❤️🥜❤️
