In a LOVELY Garden....

Between the rain drops of this cold week-end, we managed to take some nice pictures in my parents' garden.

With a little bit sun, these pictures can show you how beautiful this garden can be....

But my husband outfit shows you how cold was our week-end...

This costume jewellery set is one of the first one I ever purchased in Vanves flea markets in Paris.

This jacket comes from vintage market in Viva Las Vegas.

I found this 40's hat in a flea market in Belgium, there is a word hand written inside "MENESTREL" so I think it's a part of a theater costume...

 

This flowers dress from the 50's is from my friend Nikki from Chicago (BombshellShocked).

My husband don't fear to wear some girly colors like pink or lilac as for this nice 40's tie!

Eating some juicy raspberries with my niece...

Some autumnal colors....

  

 A canadian look, isn't it?

How life looks like thru 40's vintage glasses?
