Felicity in Purple

Hello, I tried a new hairstyle on Felicity and then that led to a new outfit.. and you get the idea :)  




























 I paired Rebecca's new Beforever jacket with Saige's tunic jeans and flats. I love how it turned out and the shoes match the purple in the jacket perfectly.

Grateful Blogger Tag


  • Thank the person who nominated you, they will surely appreciate it! Also, leave a link back to the person who nominated you.
  • Write about ten things you are thankful for. Here is the tricky part though; you can't just say you are grateful for gum or video games or whatever "little" thing it is you want to discuss. Think deeply about what is really really important to you, such as family, or life in it of itself. Explain why you are thankful for those things.
  • Tag ten other bloggers; our goal is to tag everyone!! Comment on the blogs you nominate so that they will know that they were tagged!
    • Add the pic above to you sidebar or award page thanking the person (or people) who tagged you  Thank you Maddie, Adaline , Jessica Rae and AG Chick for nominating me!    
    1.  My family (enough said ;) ) and friends..

    3.  Dance  - a great way to exercise and have fun at the same time, and express your thoughts 
    4. Music  - I love listening to music

    Thrifty Find Friday

    Wow, I haven't posted a thrifty find Friday in a while.. So, if you search for american girl stuff at resale and thrift shops it is always awesome to find something for a great deal! I stopped by a resale shop recently and to my surprise they had two dolls and a lot of accessories! It was raining when I wanted to take these pictures and all of the indoor pictures turned out terrible so I tried window photography.. it turned out better than expected and I will definitely use it in the upcoming Winter. Now, onto the finds..  



























    Handmade Felicity's Summer Outfit and My AG dress $6 
    This came packaged together and I wasn't sure if the summer outfit was real or not but it is great quality 















     Battat Winter Fairy $4
    I don't know the actual title of this.. it looked like Samantha's Coat in the package, it's cute though :) (I love the shoes!) 













    My AG Breakfast in Bed $9 
    I was so excited to find this, the only thing it's missing is the strawberry milkshake! It was really cool to find these things, and for a great deal :) 
    Thanks for visiting,

    Famous People Tag

    I was tagged for the Famous People Tag by Kelsey! Thank you!  
    Rules: 
    -Put up the 'famous people tag button' and link back to the person who tagged you
    -Answer the questions
    -Tag the ten last people who commented on your blog (excluding anonymous or the person who tagged you) 

    #1 Who's your favorite singer/group? 
    Probably Owl City, Ed Sheeran and Taylor Swift, I like all kinds of music but those are my favorite ones that come to mind right now. 
     #2 If your favorite male actor was in the same room as you right now, what would your reaction be?  
    I would probably gasp and then turn to the person stnading closest to me and say "Thats *blank* standing over there!"  
    #3 Is there a famous person you used to love but (due to something they have done in their life) you've suddenly changed your mind? 
    Not really 
    #4 Name a famous person you like who's name starts with a V. 
    Vera Wang 
    #5 What's one of your favourite red-carpet dresses? 
    I like the one on the far right, simple but stylish.  
    #6 Who's your favorite Royal person? 
    Probably Queen Elizabeth 1 of England 

    #8 Is there an actor/actress you actually like their private lives of? (Not sure if that last question was properly phrased.) 
    I don't know.. 
    #9 Do you think that the actors/actresses have improved these last 100 years 
    Yes and no, I think the quality has improved although I think some acting is rally fake.  
    #10 What's the weirdest famous-people name? 
    I don't really know, Maybe Degas?  
    #11 Do you think you look like a famous person? Which one(s)? 
    probably Merida or Ariel 
     

    #12 Share your favorite famous-person quote.

     
    #13 Who's your favorite dancer? 
    That's kind of hard, my favorite would be Anna Pavlova. 
    #14 Why is your favourite actress your favourite one? When did you decide that she was your favourite? 
    I like a lot of actresses but I think mainly all of them inspire me, especially when I am drawing or sketching 
    #15 Have you ever met/seen/been close to a famous person? 
    No 
    Thanks for nominating me, again! Here are the nominees- 
    It seems like everybody that has commented has been tagged so if anybody wants this award I nominate you :)  
    I have some very exciting news, so stay tuned!

    Blogger Recognition Award

     
    • Select 15 other blogs you want to give the award to. Do some digging if you must! Find those blogs. You cannot nominate yourself or the person who has nominated you.

    • Write a post to show off your award! Give a brief story of how your blog got started, and give a piece or two of advice to new bloggers. Thank whoever nominated you, and provide a link to their blog. List who you've nominated in the post. 
      • Make sure to also attach the award itself! (You can do this by right-clicking, saving, and uploading the image above).

    • Comment on each blog and let them know you've nominated them. Provide a link to the award post you created.

    • Provide a link to the original post on Edge of Night. That way, anyone can find the original guidelines and post if needed, and we can keep it from mutating and becoming confusing!  
    Thank you to Dolls On My Mind and AGDtime blog for nominating me.  
    I actually wrote the story of how I started this blog  "The Story"  its kind of long but you don't have to read it all :)  
    Two tips-  
    One tip to bloggers is to show recognition of the idea or photo where it is due, also if you do post about something that is not yours provide a link back 
    Another tip is to always be nice! It is important especially for a new blogger and blogger's in general.  
    Nominees (Note: I just randomly chose blogs from my blog list and people who have not yet been tagged)(Sorry if I didn't pick you!)

    Thank you again to people who nominate me for this ward and congrats to the nominees, it is so fn looking at all of your posts! I hope you can participate and I will hopefully soon leave a link if you don't see this. 
    I have another award to post but I need to get some sewing time in...

    AGPC Challenge 3

    Masquerade - this is the song, I was introduced to it by Asteri Etoile I knew what I was going to do for the photo-shoot but I could not find a song that fit, I wanted to do an Ed Sheeran song but none of them fit. I don't know if you want all of the pictures but if I had to choose one it would be the first one :)   
     What's in your name

     I know you well but tell me anyway 

     We are the same

     And different well

     But always I knew


     Dreamers lie asleep at night
     And dream of things in truth


    I wish I may I wish I might


     But these don't all come true



        The idea behind this was two sisters who are best friends and they share the special bond that all sisters have :)I hope you liked it, it was fun braiding their hair together and dressing them in similar outfits and then taking pictures :) Thanks for looking
