A Movie and a Giveaway


First off, I want to thank you all for the great feedback and wonderful comments I have gotten on my daily outfit posts. It is so nice to have your support!! There will surely be more to come!

Second, The Glamorous Housewife is hosting her first giveaway. All you have to do is leave a comment on this post and you will be entered. She is giving away a beautiful set of vintage earrings!! If you are interested check them out and good luck!

Lastly, about a week ago I discovered this wonderful movie, It Happened on 5th Avenue. It escapes me as to why I have only now discovered this lovely film, but I am so glad that I found it while surfing netflix trying to round up some old movies I haven't seen yet. I won't give too much away about the plot, as my reason to posting about this film has to do with the costumes. It Happens on 5th Avenue is set around Christmas time and was made in 1947. This film has now made it up there on my list of feel good holiday movies, which includes classics such as The Bishop's Wife, Christmas in Connecticut, and It's a Wonderful Life. I highly recommend this movie, not only for its uplifting story but the fabulous costumes as well. After watching the movie, I fell in love with the leopard coat and hat set the lead female wears towards the end of the film. Needless to say I have been scouring eBay and etsy for something similar. I hope I find one before the cold Michigan winter, because it will sure complete a vintage girl's winter wardrobe!

Hi Em,
Sorry to hear your hairdresser was a bummer :( what is a middy cut?
I'll have to remember that movie to watch at Christmas time.
I would go back to the hair salon and complain...since everything went wrong!!! Get your money back!
