Just in case...........you are feeling frivolous



Just in case you haven't seen this fabulous Valentino shoe........
and just in case you have an extra $4,700.00 laying about, I actually looked it up
when I saw it at the blog HOME.



Just because I am loving this pale blue from Akris Spring 2010.....


Just because I can't pick a favorite.......if I had a choice.
I am not looking this one up.


Just in case you are wondering why Carla Bruni can do whatever she wants........
Just wear the tiniest bit of Chanel.


Just in case you don't understand genetics.......
and that some bodies always need a bit more coverage no matter how many miles you cycle.


Just because this Collette Dinnigan dress looks comfortable and stylish
for a summer wedding.......of which I have two this summer.

Just because you are the best readers and followers........
Have a gorgeous Mothers Day weekend.

  1. Sande, that pale blue is amazing and with your hair color that would be beautiful on you. Love the summer wedding dress. I am shorter so it would probably look like a moo-moo on me. What a horrible name for a garment but it does evoke the memory of a large four legged animal. Yikes. Where did that come from. Have a wonderful, wonderful day on Sunday,hope you are treated as special as you are, Hugs Kathysue

  3. Hi Sande,
    Isn't that Valentino shoe just the most beautiful shoe you ever did see ? We had our Mothers Day in March but, perhaps next year my children could buy me a pair.... maybe a little out of their price range !!!!
    Beautiful objects of desire, Sande and I wish you a wonderful Mothers Day. XXXX

  4. Sande, what a wonderful post. Send me a pair of black satin shoes and I'll do them up for you - no charge! I love them too. Akris is out of the price point for almost everyone, only Balmain is more expensive I think. Super post, and love the "flower" soup. Have a lovely weekend, xx's

  6. Happy Mother's Day, Sande! May it be as lovely and special as you are. I love the flowing dress as well as the pale blues, above! {I DO NOT like shopping for swim suits, however, even in fantasy!} Do you suppose Carla B wears that bikini now that she is first lady in France??? Enjoy the weekend! xx P&H

  9. Those are wonderful shoes.

    I did read a blog post yet I'm not certain which one a few months back where a woman took an old pair of shoes and embellished them with organza as her way to replicate Valentino. They looked pretty nice and quite inexpensive.

    Happy Mother's Day to You.

  31. My dear Sande Churchill Chase, Do you even know how beautiful your name is...who even knew your middle name is so fabulous!
    I am so glad that I came by tonight. As I write, I am enjoying the beautiful soundtrack, and wondering where the movie crew is? I feel as though I am suddenly in some fabulous french film. The shoes, the silk, the sexy bikini, the sublime bowl of flowers ;) What more could a girl ask for? Well if I can't be in Paris then I want to be here enjoying the music and your beautiful blog which by the way is so new & pretty & fresh & feminine! xo Lisa
