Happy Birthday to me!

Today (17th of August) I turn 46 - Hooray for me, still standing strong!

May this year allow me to move closer to fulfilling my dreams and aspirations of building a cultural centre in Ghana!

Dear vintage lovers, I know I´m behind in responding to your great comments and visiting those fabulous blogs of yours... My only excuse is that I´ve just recently started a new directing job (a comedy) and its taking all my time! I soo long to go "blog knocking" on all of your doors!

My b-day present to myself :

A weekend pass to the Stockholm Burlesque Festival!

Indigo Blue is coming!

And world famous *BOB*!

And there´s going to be workshops and gala performances and cocktail mingling and I am simply going to have a ball! :)

Celebrating !

I just realised that tomorrow I have been blogging for 1 year and 1 month! Who would have thought it - not me! :)



I´m celebrating with these beautiful vintage images of women of colour (so rare to find!!) that I found on Flicker. For more amazing photos of black women during 160 years please check out "Black Women" !

I just love this photo of this elegant, confident young lady in the 1940s!
