Buying Vintage Anthropologie dresses –  due to the necessity of frugal buying and loving vintage dresses.

This is one of my buys this summer 2010.
Found the photo through the online catalogs @Anthroplogie.com
Thank you to Anthropologie Addict @
I am proud of myself, it took awhile to figure out how to obtain the photo  and then to insert the photo into this blog.

If this helps I used one note in the word office program, I captured the photo into the one note program.
Then saved the photo as a photo in that same program

children's book

Hi Everyone,


A friend illustrated a children book.




Released on October 30th in Connecticut.  The book is in independent books stores and will be in Borders Books soon enough, it's also up on my friend's  website at www.coppermoonpress.com.


The book is dedicated to her cousin, Cullen Dwyer of Massachusetts, who is a traumatic brain injury survivor. A portion of the profits from the sale of this book will benefit the Brain Injury Association of America.


If you could check her site out and the book. 




Jordan Village
by Robin G. Maillett
illustrated by LeeAnn Graham
This story for children is about a fruit tree, named Brie, that grows along the ground instead of upright and grows in the yard of a gentle, old woman named Rosie. Jordan is a young squirrel whose front paw did not fully develop and makes his home in the den of the fruit tree because he can not climb. Squire Screech Owl watches over Jordan and keeps Jordan safe from predators. But everything is not cozy in Rosie's backyard...Brie is often made fun of by the tall oaks, towering maples and weeping willows; things soon change, however, when a hurricane hits Jordan Village and no one, not man nor beast, ever makes fun of Brie or Jordan again.


Thank you,


Polly Plain

Rutledge Sweatercoat, Field Scout skirt @ Anthropologie

I tried this sweater coat, size SM and then a M. Loved the coat except the weird thing in the back.
Had flaps stick out, made me feel like a lizard. The front had deep pockets. Everything was great except the back of the sweater.


Field scout skirt
I could wear the skirt size 2, my size ranges from the 2 to 4.
Skirt was just ok, did not take home.
