The queen of hearts

Tomorrow, the Fashionista turns 20. I am in a state of wavering between disbelief that time has passed so quickly and relief that I have survived living with a teenage girl. (smile)

The Fashionista and I are very similar in that we are two very creative souls. But while my creative soul hovers in a time period of 200 years ago, she is very modern minded. Yet we somehow find ways to compromise that don't leave us climbing the walls.




As many of you know, The Fashionista is currently finishing up her sophomore year as a fashion design student. Her inspiration this semester has been part Chanel, part Alice in Wonderland.




I perused the internet for days looking for inspiration for this post. I wanted the images to reflect her. It had to be perfect. Of course the pursuit of perfection always causes a bit of anxiety and discomfort.


Beginning to feel like Tweedledee or Dumb, I grinned like a Cheshire cat when I spotted these photo's created by Annie Leibovitz for Vogue in December of 2003.
The search was over. Now I have time to plan some fun and games to mark this special occasion.

We of course will be celebrating with a tea party. Check your pocket watch, so you won't be late. It's never a party until you arrive.



I am planning all sorts of delicacies and delights. Of course there will be cake.




Fashionista, I fell head over heals in love the day that you were born. You will always remain the queen of my heart.



A Very Merry Unbirthday to You!
