MOVIE STAR BIRTHDAY BASH FOR DEANNA!!

Our dear blogging friend Deanna of Timeless Things, is STILL celebrating her birthday today with yet another wonderful party!! I tell you, this girl really knows how to kick up her heels and celebrate in grand style! This time we are to come as our favorite movie stars!

Visit her blog here to see more participants & to wish her a very happy day!!

HAPPY 46th Birthday, DEANNA!!

You may wonder who just arrived at the party in this spectacular
1935 Duesenberg J Bonman and Schwartz Convertible Coupe...

I'll give you a few hints....

I'm the 1930's Queen of Screwball Comedy (Connie/Ethel, are ya listening?I'm tricking you this time) and I'm married to a very hunky and famous movie matinee idol. Shoot, I gifted my terrific hubby with the above car ~ there are LOTS of ways to keep a man happy!! ;0)

Well, it's lil' ol' ditzy zany me......Carole Lombard

and my hunky husband, Clark Gable!


Here we are pictured at the premiere of Gone With the Wind. I thought if my duds were swell enough for that event, that they would certainly be fitting for Deanna's birthday bash ~ and I hear she just loves GWTW, so what better outfit to wear today, too!




Sweet Deanna, my biggest birthday wish for you is that you & Mr. Timeless Things will always be as happy & devoted to each other as Clark and I are.


Please help yourself to some birthday petite fours!


Now lets get to some fun stuff ~ like opening presents!

My own personal Deco Sapphire Pin

And a wonderful Art Deco bar pin that Clark picked out that is adorned with approximately 2.50 carats of diamonds and set in platinum. $6.000

We also chose for you these gorgeous bits of bling....Approximately 3.00 carats of white diamonds are set in these beautiful Art Deco-style earrings, crafted of platinum. Price: $17,850

A funny set of dolls with likenesses of us to remember us & your special day by

And last but not least, a hunky man of your very own.....Cary!


Big Big Birthday Hugs, Deanna!

Roly Poly Baldheaded Me

My favorite picture ~ I still remember this little outfit ~ a burgandy blouse & white bib front ~ I was about 3.

Lori, I posted this one just for you! :0)

I was around 5 years old in this one & my flair for bling & accessories was already showing ~ I never wanted to pose without jewelry or a purse!!

Now I'm off to press my dress, do my nails, & drag out all my jewels & wrap my gifts for the party tomorrow.......we are to come as our favorite movie star & I'm bringing one hunk of a date!! Til then......
