puttin’ on the glitz!
this little owl doesn’t like winter. notatall. but tra la! what does she see around the corner? spring and summer’s joyous siren songs, calling her out of her little nest and giving her cause to shake out her tailfeathers and pop around the corner for some fun!
this weekend, for instance, was the colorful spring cleaning, aided by the faithful lioncub fulminous, where the walls were painted bright cheery colors. this chirpy marigold for the dining room, lovely minty pistachio green for the hallways, and calming new england ocean blue for the bedroom.
le petit hiboux’s spring/summer.03 must-have collection!
*skirts, skirts, skirts! flouncy flowered in bold colors for cocktail parties, dainty black slim for work, lacy white cotton for brunches, and flowing linen for tromping around the park.
*big glammy sunglasses, and spoiled-rotten clutch purses, tucked under the arm just so for graceful hailing-of-cabs.
*pink, pink, pink! lipstick, flower-pins, ribbons, shoes!
*daddy’s little girl gold earrings.
*forget the belts! tie a colorful sash around your waist, swivel your hips comme ca.. tres boheme, n’est ce pas?
*lavender sparkly eye shadow … smudge a little into the corner of your eye, highlighting your usual browns or charcoals, and the come-hither look just got a little saucier!
*did i mention pink?
*dainty little shoes … baby-heels, open-toed sling backs, beachy slides.
*all things striped and polka dotted … so very retro-chic, doll!
*bobs! tousled and curly, a la parisien, or sleek and femme fatale, a la cabaret dancer, or flippy and flounced, a la sunshine california girl.
*short nails, in light pinks. squeaky-clean, no fuss, and how well they look with your tans!
*thin gold chains with eye-catching little charms.
*your absolute brightest smile.
but le petit hiboux’s favorite spring/summer.03 must-have? well, brooklyn’s two finest, most devilishiously, rakishly handsome lads … one on each arm!
so now you’re armed and ready. so bring it, summer!
