The Cooks Mannequin Collection offers a variety of handmade miniature mannequins for jewelry display and storage, and a perfect decor for the vanity table.
The Marie Antoinette is my favorite boasting its
opulent designs and colors.

Of course you don't know it...but I'm found of M.Antoinette style! I find it so chic, so oldfashioned and so terribly modern!! Thank you for sharing these great pics! Come and visit me!
Kisses from Italy!

Opulence is a scrumptious name all on it's own. Add "Antoinette" and you've got magic!
I love the post! The pink chair is just gorgeous!! Have a great day!! xoxo
Oh I just love a Marie Antoinette post! and your own last two photos are absolute delight.

so pretty!
Many girls would love this petite madame, I would have died for it at about age 12! I would have rearranged my few trinkets endlessly.
your posts always have a way of making me smile!
Thank you for another collection of fab pictures to admire!
Have a wonderful weekend,
Blessings and hugs,
Donna

Oh my goodness! I LOVE that pink chair!!!! Such a great post and gorgeous blog!! Thanks for stopping by my blog too! :)
Love the chair and Marie Antoinette as well. Most people don;t realize she never said "Let them eat cake." that it was a smear campaign, by the Orleans family in an attempt at a power grab. She did have a charmed life while it lasted.
You always pick such gorgeous pictures to use!!
Happy Weekend Dear! xo
J'adore the Coppola MA movie... the colour... the food... the decor... the fashions.... the musique... oooooh I could go on and on... hmmmm maybe it is time to watch the DVD!!!
These are so charming! How are you? I hope you've had a great summer. I've missed all my blog friends. So glad to be back. Hope you are well.
So pretty MaryAnn - I've never wanted a dressing table, now I'm quickly revising that thought!

MaryAnn: I'm stopping in with a cup of "coffee." I finally got my S-L-O-W post out, but I had to think really hard about it, and I am shamelessly proud of creating a theory in the big world, where I might stand corrected--seriously with an Austrian boot click, but, I think I sorted out a new idea. If I'm old hat, set me straight. I love my little secret garden visits to you. Keep the magic coming.

These pics are so beautiful Mary Ann! I just love the colours:)~ Tina xx
i think she was one of the pioneer fashion icons... what would she look like if she was alive today?
Beautiful pictures - makes me want to see the movie again for maybe the 5th time.
Lovely and I loved that movie!
