I ♥ Thursday {no. 5}

Hello everyone! Today is Christmas Adam. Get it? Christmas Adam comes the day before Christmas Eve. You know, Adam & Eve. lol. :) Well, besides being Christmas Adam today it is a Thursday, meaning it's time for I ♥ Thursday.

I love Basil Rathbone reading aloud the book, Sherlock Holmes. You know what, I could listen to him read all day. :)

Russian Tea Cakes. Yum.

This really cool laptop cover.
(edited: I found where this is sold!!! Click here.) (:

This outfit from Casablanca that Ingrid Bergman wears. (I saw this costume when I was in L.A. this summer. It is so pretty! The blouse is a rusty paisley print with a black skirt.)

The radio & 50s TV Show Dragnet. 

This beautiful dress that Judy Garland wears in Girl Crazy.  

The old Disney movie, 101 Dalmatians.

I love this whole look. But, I would just change the neckline to something more modest. :)

This 1950 Christian Dior dress. 

The darling hairstyle seen here.

"Strike Up The Band" {1940}

Strike Up The Band {1940} is one delightful, charming, feel good movie. I saw it for the first time this past Friday with Gabrielle and Hanne-col - we loved it! In fact, it was our first Judy Garland & Mickey Rooney film we ever saw. For that matter, it was our first Judy Garland movie we ever saw. =) Needless to say, she is a darling.

Judy was lovely. Mickey was hilarious. They made us laugh and feel oh, so happy. It had great songs and some fun dance routines. Plus, Judy's wardrobe was one I wouldn't mind owning myself. Her wardrobe is great for some 1940s teenage sewing inspiration. ;-)







Some of my favorite songs from the movie were, Our Love Affair, Drummer Boy, and Nobody.
