Nov 11 : I Remember

Today and every day I remember those who have fought for our freedom. Those who came home, those who lost their lives and those who are still fighting.

Mewow Happy Halloween!

There is nothing scarier than a pissed off cat in a costume! Happy Halloween from Mosi (pictured below), Beanie (my other kitty he was too tiny for the hot dog costume) and I! xoxo

History Nerd: Classic Red Lip Stick

Red Lipstick made its debut in the USA in 1912. It was worn by Suffragette's (including Elizabeth Arden) as a badge of courage and a mark of revolution as they marched for change and the right to vote. This and more is a part of the History of Red Lipstick....

Fashion History: Wedding Gowns

All I can say is thank gawd it's not the 1980's anymore. However, I wouldn't mind time traveling back to the 1920's. The dress is just gorgeous and it's one of my favourite decades for fashion.


Have a Listen: Lore Podcast

My favourite new podcast Lore is a look into the history behind scary stories, folklore, fairy tales, myths and more. Their first podcast is all about Vampires (with barely any mention of Twilight, thank gawd!). You can listen to their first episode below and then the rest of their episodes over on iTunes or their website

Update: I also added Lore's podcast about America's first serial killer H.H. Holmes below, his story has intrigued me since I bought my grandmother The Devil in The White City in 2005. Leonardo DiCaprio is set to play H.H. Holmes in a movie version of the book, which is something I'm so looking forward to see.

New Tuneage: Leon Bridges

I've been looking for new music for what seems like forever and I think I've found it in the form of the amazing Leon Bridges. His glorious sound harkens back to a bygone era, the 1950's/60's to be exact. And since I have a mini obsession with both decades, I cannot help but put his whole album on repeat. I'm currently listening to it as I write this post. Have yourself a listen below and I dare you not to fall in love with his music (and his sweet sense of style).
