All Dolled Up Book Launch

2/15/2014

19 Comments

 
My first book, All Dolled Up: Bringing 1920s and 1930s Flair to your Wardrobe made its debut at Kern Reading Association's Book Talk Tea February 13, 2014.  Here are a few pictures.  I celebrated with my daughter Anne, sisters Nancy & Kathy, niece Beki, friends Monique & Vidalia, KRA teacher and librarian buddies, and fellow Capstone author Allison Crotzer Kimmel who penned Prepped and Punked: Bringing 1980s and 1990s Flair to your Wardrobe.   In honor of my first book release I'm giving away a pair of handcrafted Barbie shoe earrings in your choice of color.  To enter the drawing just leave a comment below sharing your favorite way to accessorize.  You can probably guess my favorite accessory is a funky pair of earrings. One winner will be drawn by a computerized random number generator program when the contest ends March 1, 2014.

I like to accessorize with vicious Chihuahuas. You can match your oversize purse to their fur color, so they are hidden until they jump out and bite some poor innocent person.
Money also makes a nice accessory. It is always in style, just like kindness. Rebecca always adds a little kindness before going out the door.

I lied about my age. Always. "How old are you Mrs. Hobbs?" "Old enough to know better than to answer that question. Next?"

Rebecca, your books look fantastic! What a kick for you. Since I have no holes in my ears, besides the ones for hearing, I'll disqualify myself from your drawing. Unless you can turn them into ear cuffs. :--} Happy Book Launches.

My favorite way to accessorize is with a fun scarf. I am especially in love with the infinity scarves that double over themselves.

Kathy, you are the queen of bling. I was in awe of the way you worked the phone to get those blingy clearance dragonfly pins. I bow to your bling-i-ness!
