April Outfit of the Month and Deals



This photo shoot made me hungry for the best kind of food - Italian.

Our fourth stop this year will be to Southern Italy!

This is a traditional outfit perfect for dancing the Tarentelle.  The Tarentelle is a dance that involves holding hands and dancing in a circle. The music gets faster and faster as the song goes on.
It is considered unlucky to dance the Tarantella alone so it is often danced by couples or by two women.  - Ottowaitalians.com
I think we should all have some spaghetti with meatballs tonight to celebrate this month's outfit.  What do you say?!

Just a Day in March




"It was on of those March days, when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold; when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade." - Charles Dickens


Some drawing time...




 Time for a scavenger hunt!



Ah March!

March Outfit of the Month, a Trip to Ghana and BOGO



Maybe it is wishful thinking but I thought for this month I'd do something from a warm country and maybe it would bring some warmth here to Idaho.  It's been a long, cold winter and we are all ready for some sunshine!

Our third stop this year will be to Ghana.


In West Africa, a kaftan or caftan is a pull-over woman's robe.[1] In French, this robe is called a boubou, pronounced boo-boo. The boubou is the traditional female attire in many West African countries including Senegal, Mali, and Ghana. The boubou can be formal or informal attire. The formality of the kaftan depends upon the fabric used to create it.

This is my kind of outfit!  Doesn't it look so comfy and pretty?

February Deals and Outfit of the Month - A Visit to Sweden


Thank you to all who responded to last month's question, 
"What country would you like to see in an Outfit of the Month this year?". 

 So many countries I hadn't even considered!  I can't wait to share many of your suggestions in the coming months.  We may have to have two years of Girls Around the World outfits!

Our second stop this year will be to Sweden.

This is a Swedish Midsummer (Midsommar) Day outfit.  Midsummer is celebrated every June and is second  in popularity only to Christmas.  Before going to the festivities, girls make sure to create a festive daisy-chain for their hair and look forward to dancing and singing with friends and family under the Maypole.  Before bedtime, the custom is for youth to pick seven different kinds of flowers and put them under their pillow for their future spouse.

I'm curious if any of you have visited Sweden or have ancestors from there (I do!).  I know of a few of you are from Sweden.  Do you celebrate Midsommar?
