Heading to Brimfield with a friend on Thursday & we have all our favorite vendors lined up to see. Our first stop has to be "when lindy met sandy's" booth. They carry the most gorgeous vintage couture prints on the planet! Gonna snag one of these for my office in the largest size available & in a chunky weathered frame. My pal peggy snagged the most gorgeous print of Jean Shrimpton (a popular 60's model) framed in a chunky, weathered lime green frame-FABULOUS! I saw it & now I have to have one! I think I'll grab an Audrey Hepburn since I've always loved her & people used to say my mom resembled her when she was young. Take a look at this gorgeous print that Peggy snagged......
Now imagine it framed in a wide lime green weathered frame!
I LOVE this one but would choose the wide, weathered frame. Not sure if I'll go with black. So many to choose from I hear!
Love this one too & really love the word "COUTURE" at the top. I'm sure I'll be spending lots of time trying to figure out which one to bring home. Bringing a huge SUV & plan on stuffing it to the brim. I'll post when I get back. Are any of you planning on going to this week? If so HAPPY SHOPPING! :) xo






Chris, the couture prints are stunning ... I can see why you would want one.... as for Audrey Hepburn she is the epitome of class...
I have to say your grandaughters in the post below are absolutely darling especially the wee one who may be driving a car soon.. lol

Good Morning Chris! I wish I was going to Brimfields! I would love to meet up with you. I can't believe we are going to both be in N..... at different times in the same month!
Have fun shopping and let us know what print you ended up with!

Chris,
I have always wanted to go, but it sounds so overwhelming to me...it's the ADD brain. Going to the Country Living Fair in Ohio in 2 weeks instead!

Have a wonderful time. My best friend and I traveled from Texas to Brimfield in May for the first time, it was pure magic. We came back to Texas and immediately started saving and planning for next year. I can't wait to see what treasures you find.
Smiles,
Carol

Have loads of fun at Brim. I'll be home tending the shop. Let me know when you're around so I can return your dish-with a nice apple strudel in it:)

We don't have cool stuff like that here. Wish we did. I love the Couture print in the final photo of the lady in the red & polka dot hat. I'd love to have that in my office. Hope you have fun with your friend. xoxo Amy

Science is not a selfish pleasure. To be able to devote themselves to scientific research, we should take their knowledge service to humanity.Do you think so?

Hello,
Just wanted to say that I love all of the flowers here... keep 'em comin'!
(I found your blog by searching for peonies on google images).
And.. I would totally dig the print of the woman with polka dots. Love color.
