Like steps of passing ghosts,
The leaves, frost-crisp'd,
break free from the trees
and 
fall."

from November Night

Dog Days of Summer Silliness



Yes, I WILL fit here
www.superdogsatplay.com

Aren't dogs the silliest things?
We have been adopted by 4 Great Danes over the past few years.
The Great Dane -
regal
majestic
stately

But on the other hand.....
they are the silliest dogs every!

Just a few more minutes, mom...

So today we will celebrate all things silly,
that happen to be in a dog fur coat...

dog humor, www.facebook.com

I found all these wonderful funny dog pics on google.
There is apparently a movement out in the internet world called

"Dog Shaming"

People write a simple note on a white piece of paper or card,
and snap a photo of the culprit with the 'shame card'.

I laughed alot.

Let's have fun today with the color

RED

What better color to represent this joyous season?

Have fun with the above safety pin pin pattern!

This is a great activity for last minute gifts -
safety pin pins!

Since I am featuring lovely RED ideas today,
here is another cheerful bit to wear:

mesh hair clip or brooch, www.vipcreationstation.etsy.com

Another Holiday Party to go to, and I've already worn the 3 Holiday sweaters I own....what to wear?  What to wear?

Let me give you some choice RED ideas:

Stripes are definitely IN this season -

a Candy Stripes Costume, www.buycostumes.com

You can go big and BOLD, or here is a more subtle stripe,

in RED of course!!

'Peppermint Obsession' Barbie, c.2006

Now some of you like patterns in your favorite RED Holiday wardrobe
and that is just as fashionable:

Dolls of the World  - Kenya - Barbie c.1994

Here's another sweet patterned Red dress -

"A Sweet RED Dress" original Collage Art Doll

add some RED dress glam with that pattern:

"RED Dress Glam" original collage art doll


"Time for RED Dress Glam" note cards, from original Collage Art Doll,


vintage clip with patterned underskirt, tweaked by Lisa Vollrath


note the suit dress with RED color-on-color, and black soutache trim

'Cassie' paper doll by Gwen R., c.1996

Also note the RED stripe lingerie, and the RED satin shoes!
(One can never accessorize with RED too often!)

Here is another color-on-color RED dress:

vintage sewing pattern graphics


Need an idea for that formal engagement?
Look no further!

'The Red Queen of Hearts', Barbie c.2007



'January Birthstone - Garnet' Barbie c.2003



'Holiday Ball' Barbie, c.2007

Just don't have time to sew all that material?

Looking for RED glamor and short? I have ideas for those too!!


(I love those big RED cabbage roses!!)



'Betty Boop' unofficial paper doll and RED outfits
note the RED lingerie!


Are you a little short on RED glamour fabric?
Here are some ideas to help you stretch that fabric into a dress!

Add some white accents to make that RED fabric go longer!

Don't forget leftover fabric-
Note the RED accessories!

These Collage Art Dolls are ALL made from recycled junk mail!!

How about using a base color fabric, such as black,
and adding RED accents to complete the outfit?

Dolls of the World Barbie, Thailand, c.1998


Another costume for Betty Boop.
Note the RED accent ribbon on her hat!

Which brings up a very important part of your holiday ensemble -
ACCESSORIZE!!!

Don't worry about the little things, just be sure it is RED!

for her holiday ensemble-
