oh, esther.

I'm currently enamored with Esther Williams.


I've got all of her movies in my Netflix queue and each weekend I get a new opportunity to sigh over her beautiful hair, costumes, and perfectly 1940s makeup.

So far I've seen Thrill of a Romance,

Easy to Love,

and Bathing Beauty.

Million Dollar Mermaid is next.

She spends most of her movies in (darling) bathing suits...and I'm not likely to be cavorting around in one any time soon. Still, there's something about her very easy to watch movies that lends a little magic to my quiet weekend afternoons.

The costumes she wears (briefly) during the movies are wonderful examples of 1940s fashions and I never walk away uninspired.





Hope you're all having a great weekend! I'm still plugging away at the anthro blouse. I'm frustrated, so it is taking me longer than normal. I might be setting it aside to work on a non-stressful project for a few days but don't despair, I will prevail!
