old soul.

i was rasied on music of the 50s and 60s and i like therapeutic ked shoes more than heels {sorry carrie!} i love old record players and finding vintage treasures at flea markets. i think a day with the grandparents is just as fun as going out dancing. and i want a fake id for the sole purpose of senior citizen discount days at kroger. i remember watching carousel, west side story, oklahoma, and other classics from old school hollywood as a child with grandfather. {VHS! but of course!} you just don't get better than the actors from the golden age of hollywood. they were true movie stars and simply glamourous. and i'm just talking about the ladies. don't even get me started the dreamy men {ohhhh hey clark gable!}

the one the only JUDY GARLAND!

what a movie star.

beautiful, bold, undeniably talented.

some of my most favorite movies are hers. meet me in st. louis is definitely in my all time top five favorite movies.

clang, clang, clang went the trolley.
ding, ding, ding went the bell.
zing, zing, zing went my heartstrings.
from the moment i saw him i fell.

JOAN CRAWFORD.

one of the original flapper gals and unbeatably wonderful.

"with the whole world crumbling, we pick this time to fall in love."
"yeah, it's pretty bad timing. where were you, say, ten years ago?"

and last but certainly not least, the loverly audrey hepburn.

the funny face darling.

"I'm like cat here, a no-name slob. We belong to nobody, and nobody belongs to us. We don't even belong to each other."

tunes from the golden age.

of romance.

and glamour.

and when confessing your love on a trolley ride was perfectly fine.

have an old hollywood, glamorously fabulous day!

where's my poodle skirt!?

maybe its the fact i didn't own a single britney spears or n sync album. or the fact i didn't have cable when i was growing up and i just didn't know what year it was. whatever it was i will always love music from the 50s and 60s the most. the two tapes i did have {besides the free odyssey books on tape from chick fil a} was a very worn down tape {yeah tape.. as in cassette. remember those?!} of the now and then soundtrack and a best of the 50s! they were the soundtrack to my childhood and now that i look back on it i wouldn't switch any arron carter or backstreet boys cd for my oldies ever. here's a few of my favorites. get ready to dance!

turn on stand by me, put on your cat eye glasses, do the jitterbug and have a throwback kind of weekend!

p.s. i've been up since 6am jamming to the best of the 50s&60s! even made an epic playlist. and if you want a CD of my favorites feel free to email me and i'll send you one! its too good not to share!
