THE VILLAGE MARKETPLACE

A GREAT NEW SHOPPING EXPERIENCE

This past weekend I had the pleasure of shopping at The Village Marketplace. Let me tell you, I shopped till I dropped....LOL I arrived at The Village and I was truly in awe of what I saw....

This place was amazing. Put together by a group of designers, Geea, Nigelblackthorne, CarCus and

ZachC and Dazee, this was definitely your one stop shopping place :) As I strolled along the street the first shop I came upon was the shop I knew was for me...'wink

Just a few steps further I could see the name of the shop...CIAO BELLA DESIGNS I turned to enter the shop and was in awe of what I saw...this place was absolutely beautiful

I knew I was in for a long day of shopping when I took a look at Geea's Brochure. One can find the brochure at the back of the shop placed on a stand just in front of her models.....these are so lifelike...I found myself asking for their opinion as I tried on many of Geea's clothes......'wink..... after spending several hours just trying on things I knew I had to decide soon on my purchases as time was ticking away and I had a dinner date :) Yes Meret took me out to dinner (for real)...........he does this sometimes :)

After careful deliberation let me show you what I decided to take home with me...hehe...I thought it would be fun to stand in front of the models and show you what I purchased from the shop. The best thing ever was that I took everything home immediately, there were no alternations needed....I ask you, when has this ever happened to anyone....WOOHOO!

Oh indeed this is me, in between the models, I'm the one wearing Geea's Champagne Shimmer Gown...Isn't this gown gorgeous...'wink

Here I am again with her lovely Perrywinkle Shimmer Gown, I know there is a formal coming up sometime soon, and I'll just have to decide which gown I will wear....OH, DECISIONS, DECISIONS....LOL

Getting ahead of myself just a bit about the formal coming up sometime, I do know that Halloween is just around the corner. We all need a costume for this....I chose her Cave Girl Costume.....I look a little like Wilma...don't ya think.....I think this costume is fun and I'm going to try and convince Meret to wear his (Fred Flintstone costume.......hehe).

So I've shown you my formal gowns, my Halloween costume choice, and now lets go upstairs and view the pics I took up there. Yes indeed, there are two levels to this place..........

I just adore her Baby Blue Sweater....it made me feel so warm when I put this on....hehe...not to mention, kind of cute looking too, don't ya think....'wink....

Now for a little something a bit more chic looking, I chose this lovely jacket...Grommet Corduroy, worn with her CB Black jeans with belt....what a lovely outfit....she certainly matches her clothing items nicely, that I had to have the jeans as well...Oh my word...its getting close to dinner and I'm afraid I've had such fun shopping but I'm feeling a wee bit tired.....shopping can do that to a gal ya know.....ROFL

Before I leave I have to show you the swimsuit I selected....now this is by far one of the sexiest looking swimsuits I've had on in a while.....I put on the dark glasses to give you the real effect.....this is the Pink on the Beach swimsuit...and knowing me when I go to the beach I'll forget to put on sunscreen and my body will definitely get a little pink or red if I'm not careful....ROFL

Well its that time...I hear Meret calling me for dinner....but I'm afraid I'm truly feeling a little tired...I bet I can catch a quick nap if I run now.....I seem to remember a couch downstairs...I'll just put myself there for a bit and I know I'll feel refreshed in no time.....

Thanks for sharing my shopping day with me and I hope you all get the opportunity of shopping at THE VILLAGE MARKETPLACE in the near future.......Oh let me tell you before I go that there are other shops here too, I just couldn't get out of CIAO BELLA to look at them......ROFL
