Friday Fabulous Finds-Going Tribal

No not Africa

 Hello Beautiful SOULmates.

I am really digging the tribal prints.

The cut

The colors and the print-stunning. I wore this with a plain white tee, a pair of dark denim and of course high heels. Simple yet beautiful!

This is how I ROCKED my vintage tribal printed jacket!

I was a vendor at the SPRING shopping event held at the Snoqualmie Ridge golf course. Although the traffic was slow (due to the beautiful sun outside) the few people I connected with really loved my accessories and price points.The young lady in the picture was very aware of her sense of style. She was interested in a few of my pieces and eventually decided on a beautiful bird ring by Cara. 

Email me if you see anything you like thesoulboutique@hotmail.com

I wish I could wake up to this veiw everyday of my life.

This is how they ROCKED it!

These shorts are AMAZING!

 What talent this girl has. I can't even put on clear nail polish without it looking like a hot mess! I guess we all have our talents don't we.

Draped silk sparkly cover-I am in LOVE all over again.

The tag says Richmond Seattle, it definitely looks vintage, but when I attempted to research the name I couldn't find anything. Seattlites if you have any information on Richmond Seattle please do share.

Butterfly sleeves SHUUDDUP! I know! Killing me softly! I think I paid 8 bucks, without a doubt it's worth so much more. The thrill of it all.

Gucci this Gucci that

uh huh I picked up these sophisticated mamas last weekend at a Garage Sale for 5 bucks thats riiiiighhttt 5 dolla made me hollah "honey boo boo child". That is until I realized they were too narrow for me. You win some you loose some. These are for SALE!

Sunshine Canisters

Aren't these beautiful! I must share the story about these sunshine canisters. When I purchased the cantisters they were taped up and I didn't bother to look inside. Once I got home I removed the tape when I opened the lid to one of them,  I was not so pleasantly surprised by what was inside-green, fuzzy disgusting MOLD. God only knows how long the mold has been growing in there. My stomach curls just thinking about it. Seriously, I almost lost my lunch instintly. But I had to pull myself together and build up just enough courage to clean it out-Gloves-Bleach-Boiling Hot Water-Soap and I went to work. I shall NOT be defeated!

I found this cute little doll chair for my God Daughter who is into American Girl. The cost of AG furniture is ridiculous.

My dog daughter Mulan thinks everything her size belongs to her. She is such a princess and not in a good way. LOL! She runs my life all 2.5lbs of her.

I didn't post What I Wore Wednesday this week. So here is a snap shot. My beautiful girlfriend Tina is crazy about fashion too. She always looks well put together on any given day.

WIWW- I love how my sweater feels and forms to my body just right. I've had this sweater for years and I love it just as much as I did when I first purchased it. My earrings are rains of chains LOL, thats what I call them SOUL Boutique  .  Wow, look how my watch glows in the picture. Another great thrift find.

ROAD TRIP-I am off to WALL WALLA (W2) Washington with my girlfriend Chelsea Mae-I adore her, she is so sweet, my guy Chinh and princess Mulan. A friend of mine from High School moved to Walla Walla with her husband and opened a thrift store Door Number 2. If you find yourself in W2 you must go in her little swank thrift shop. I am so excited to see her it's been over 15 years since we last saw each other.  I am looking forward to a little wine tasting, thrift shopping and much needed R&R.

Until next time SOULmates
Always, SOULBeautiful xx*s

Friday Fabulous Finds-Tips included

Hello Beautiful SOULmates

A friend of mine suddenly loss a close friend he went to high school with. Its moments like this I realize I need get my priorities in order. God,Family, Friends,Work.

Are you ready to see all my Fabulous Friday Finds?

Pretty Pearl Purse

I don't know much about her because I forgot to read the label before I packed her away. I found Pretty Pearl several months ago. I was looking for pictures to post, and her beauty stood out to me, isn't she stunning, she screams SPRING. 

Who doesn't love a bag of PRETTY PEARLS

Perfectly Tailored

It doesn't fit me-YUP its for sell. I know a great blazer when I see one. This is by Banana Republic the label is different than what I normally see for BR. It says made in Italy, maybe I never noticed that BR clothing was made in Italy. SOULmates if you can shed a little light and educate me on this brand I would be grateful.

I love the cut of this blazer. If you don't have a waist this BR blazer gives you the illusion of one. 

Pink Birds and TORY B

The perfect summer sandals with the perfect summer dress.

!SUMMER I CANT WAIT TO LOVE YOU! 

These are a weee bit small for me they are a narrow 9.5. If they will fit you they are for SELL. Leave me a message if you are interested.

I cleaned them with a sanitized cloth. The left shoe still has residue from the Nordstrom sticker.

Pretty Brown Eyes

She was adopted and I love her. Her fingers are broken, her leg is cracked, her hair is messy, missing a yellow bow, and she lost her shoe. All of these things make her PERFECT because it gives her character, would you agree?

Vintage 70's Brass Bangle Beauty

This is going in my boutique and I am sure it will be sold sooner than later. BANGLE IT OUT with  stacks of colorful bangles.

Spreading some Thrift shopping Tips. It's all out of Spreading LOVE-
As a young girl I watched my Mom budget her life with skill and looked fabulous doing it. Here is a valuable tip my mother shared with me.  When shopping don't p purchase something because you think its a bargain. It may very well end up sitting in your closet and never worn. Seriously, how much are you really saving if you never use or wear what you purchased because your only reason for purchasing is because it was a bargain. 



SOULmates you know your friend you've been meaning to call but never got around to it, CALL HER today and see how s/he is doing. I am sure s/he would love to hear from you. 

Always, SOULBeautiful xo*s 

What I Wore Wednesday-Not so Suede

BLUE SHOES

Hello SOULmates

WHOA-before I continue check this out,

My first blog interview by another amazing blogger please click on the link and read my interview -Sweet Tart Beauty .

Ok now for the good stuff.

I totally missed last week. Honestly, I just wasn't feeling it ( I am sure it wont be the last time). So please be forgiving. Not to mention didn't wear anything worth posting. It was just one of those weeks, if you know what I mean. And you know what, I really don't like taking pictures of myself-I wonder if any of my fellow bloggers feel that way? I only do it because I have no one else to take pictures of  and I feel awkward walking up to strangers and asking to take a picture.

Anyway moving right a long...

I was feeling a little BLUE-in a good way.

Playing with color is my thing. I love the color of my cardigan, I call it peachgerine (peach and tangerine). The color gives the eyes something to smile about when wearing strips isn't as pleasing to the eyes.

Oh Yeah, it is time to break out the sunglasses. Those who follow my blog know I have plenty to wear!

I know the color doesn't pop as much as the picture above. I am still learning how to edit pictures.
Life is about living and learning...*sigh* that's what I keep telling myself.

I will say it until I am BLUE in the face, "When in doubt belt it out!"

Ha! This face explains it all. "hurry up and take the picture please." Torture!

My stylist comes up with the most intricate, amazingly beautiful hair styles. I love her long time!

Go buy a pair of BLUE shoes, I beg you. You will NOT regret it, I promise!

The gold anchor detail makes accessorizing easy.
A touch of GLAM.

Details:

Cardigan-Target

Skirt-J Crew thrifted not because of the brand but because of the strips. I'm just not a Jcrew fan

Handbag,Earrings and Stacked Beaded Bracelets-SOUL Boutique

Shoes-Nine West

Sunglasses-Thrifted Vintage Christian Dior

Hair-My amazing stylist ZUE from Good Hair in Seattle. 

There is so much excitement in my life right now!

Drum Roll please....Guess who was presented with not 1 but 2 blog awards, ME-Most versatile and Liebster Award. The liebster award is given to the underdog bloggers like myself who have NOT gained a huge following but still have something to add to the blogging world. They should call it Waiting to become FAMOUS.  I am honored. I would like to thank my girl, my sista, my friend, and fellow blogger-So Lonely in Gorgeous. I love her blog its so intimately beautiful.  I will post more about the awards I was presented later this week so hold tight.

Always, SOULBeautiful x*s
