How to Prepare for a Wedding ~ Pedicures & Spa Message Therapy!

It’s going to be a busy weekend for me. My niece is getting married and the wedding is going to be held at one of the premier wedding facilities in Connecticut. That means that this Hot Momma Baby Boomer blogging Grandma has to get her act together.

Now that the lazy, crazy, hazy days of summer are upon us, I decided it was high time I treated myself to a pedicure. Since I’m going to be wearing some spiffy, trendy strappy toe sandals to go with my  boutique halter-back silk evening dress, my tootsies have to be up to snuff.

In addition to the spa pedicures that I get at the salon I go to, the icing on the cake is the back message that they give when your little piggies are under the dryer! The technicians must have gone to some terrific massage therapy schools to learn the trade for their careers!

Just call me “Twinkle Toes”~

Don’t Be an Armchair Traveler -Summer Vacations are Coming Soon – Book your Travel Plans Now

Where in the world would you like to go?

Recently in one of my posts, I mentioned that I am an Armchair Traveler and that I travel vicariously. It wasn’t always that way. As a typical teen, I carried the typical wanderlust gene.

Like many of my friends, I dreamed of a career as a stewardess flight attendant on any airline. If one took a plane to travel, it was a special occasion, and proper dress was always in order. So exciting! At the time, the position was only open to women, and there was a height requirement that you had to be 5’2”. When I “grew up,” I never qualified for the height requirement!

I did fulfill one goal, and one of my fondest memories was that as a young gal of 17 made my first and only trip abroad across the Pond to England in 1969 at the height of the “British Invasion” when the Beatles were popular. I stayed with an English family for 2 weeks and toured all the typical sites – Big Ben, Tower of London and Windsor Castle. It was an opportunity of a lifetime, for me, at least.

College Grads ~ Ready, Set, Shop for your Career Wardrobes ~ Decisions, Decisions ~ Have you heard of Infinity Shoes?

I was an Uptown Girl before there were Uptown Girls. When I was younger, I worked in the Insurance City in Hartford. My BFF from the office and I would take extended lunches, and cruise the best-high end department store in the city, all 11 floors of it on our lunch ‘hour.’ I was Imelda before she was known for her shoe fetish.

Shoes were my weakness. The shoe department was located on the second floor. I must have owned, oh, I can’t even remember, but a pair of shoes for every outfit! Well, that was a long time ago, and the department store has now closed.

But I still like shoes. And now, I can shop to my heart’s content at Infinity Shoes. They have shoes in every style imaginable for every age group! I used to have a pair of Frye Leather Boots to go with my mini-skirts (can you believe it?) Well, they even sell the Frye – I haven’t been able to find those in ages!

My DD, the college student, would probably love the Seychelles shoes for clubbing, or any upcoming weddings she’ll be attending this summer. She also will be interning this summer and for her career wardrobe would really be complete with the Tsubo shoes.

And Birkenstocks! The Flower Child in me still loves these comfortable favorites! With the right pair, I can even walk all over Boston or NYC for the day when I go on Road Trips! Besides my old favorites, they also carry Minnetonka Boots.

So if you want to beat the crowds and shop for affordable shoes on your lunch hour the easy way, bookmark this great site!
