Record Love

I love hurrying out of a sloppily parked car in a driveway and immediately scanning the garage sale for a dusty cardboard box, getting on my knees and flipping though dusty records. Garage sale shopping and thrift store shopping is practically a sport to me. However, I love going to (yes I'm doing a shout out) Dimple Records in Davis. I love knowing that I don't have to go leaving a little sad from a garage or an estate sale seeing only Bob Segar and Cat Stevens albums galore.

Today at Dimple, I  found The Supremes sing live at the Copa. The Copacobana was an extremely popular New York City night club established in the 40's. It was in this venue that The Supremes made their debut! I mean, how amazing is that. This just so happens to be that 1965 debut album. *_* SO HAPPY! 

"Baby Love"  is number four, side one of this marvelous Motown record. 

Posh Pooch

I went to a thrift store called Opportunity House in my hometown Vacaville, CA and found this little gem. The pink (1950's) poodle is definitely an inspiring find. It is such a refined little pooch with its fur trimmed at both the ankles and the "wrists". And with a little beret placed perfectly upon its head, how could I not buy it! However, my favorite part about it aside from being vintage and pretty,  is because with it's tongue out, it looks more silly than refined.

The posh pooch was such an inspiration for me that I bought Mabelline's perfect pastels "turquoise glass" eye-shadow and combined it with my L'oreal felt tip liquid eyeliner to create an oh. so. retro. look.
