THE FAB 40's AND FAIRY TALES


Fairy Tales are just magical, aren’t they? That’s why I was super excited when My dear friend Suzy of Suzy Turner asked to join this month’s Fab 40s and the Tales of the Unexpected Fairy Tale theme. I was lucky enough to join this lovely group of ladies once before and I am a huge fan of their blogs and their style and what they bring as Fabulous 40’s ladies. I knew right away that I would want to feel like a princess. I mean May has been the month of the Princess with the royal wedding nine days ago. I was thinking something along the lines of Cinderella, Rapunzel and with this dress shape, maybe even a bit of The Little Mermaid thrown in. 


This Wayf Penelope Dress stole my heart from the very beginning. The marble ice color is just soooo Good! 


 The Platinum Nickel and Suede earrings are a favorite of mine and I had to wear a black choker like Cinderella.



 My sweet oldest son took these photos in our woods right after a rain where we both endured numerous mosquitoes bites..fashion sacrifices I tell ya!  


All Modern Day versions of course..a cross between Blake Lively’s Cinderella dress and as Suzy reminded me, the Johnny Depp version of Cinderella.
