If you commune with garden fairies (as I do), then you need to wear fairy clothes.
I’m just sayin.
I wear fairy clothes so often, I got my fairy wings at some point. You can only see them in the magical forest.
Now, mama, I know you’ll be reading this, and I know you don’t want the Head Fairy of the Magical Forest to demote me to wingless, so I need my new pantaloons. These have been worn a thousand million times.
Oh, what are fairy clothes? Bright. But soft. Fun. Layers. Lace. Leggings or pantaloons are best, for jumping over mushrooms and streams. Ballet flats or flip-flops are ideal. You can run in flats if you need to hide quickly and you can kick off flip-flops so easily if you decide to climb a tree or do some wading.
Dress above — from consignment shop. White T with lace on sleeves and down front — 3 dollars, thrifted. Pantaloons – my mama made them. (Mama? Pantaloons?) Fairy brooch – handmade.
Fairy background – I am sworn to secrecy.
Enjoy this day.

hi lynn,
i just got caught up on all the latest G.W. fashions! and as a matter of fact, i was just at our goodwill yesterday…..even got an extra 20% off my total with the birthday coupon they mailed me. sweet!
and i CANNOT believe how LONG your hair is on the previous post. my, it’s three times as long as cher’s ever was!
and the background on the first photo from this post….fabulous. i’m so jealous of your high-tech abilities. mainly because i have NONE whatsoever.
have a great 4th weekend, my friend.
connie
Lynn…you look lovely
I do so enjoy pantaloons, and like you I wear them under my skirts and lately, I have begun wearing them with nice tunics.
But seriously, like Connie expressed in the comment above, your hair is just lovely. And so is that pin you are wearing
We are all a very nice encouraging society here in your lovely space…Have a blessed weekend.
Maria
again, very pretty. you wonder why people would consign these clothes and not keep them! Plus, it would be hard to find something so pretty these days at a mall or something. I like flip flops for kicking them off, going outside and back inside! love,andrea
Dearest Lynn, Chief Fairy Clothing Designer,
You’d better not leave your windows open at night, or some sprite might take away your dainty duds!
I love the GW fashion shows; keep them coming! And my, you could audition for Rapunzel and be sure to get the part!
I hope your mama has time to make some pantaloons soon (My mama is supposed to make some for my girls, too, and we’re still waiting).
Love,
Marqueta
Marqueta, If the sprites are who I think they are, I would be honored to have them visit, and would probably leave with them.
Ahhh, pantaloons! Where are everyone’s pantaloons??? 
Connie, LOL, well I do remember Cher’s hair and her hair was pretty long! Thanks.
I have never had a GW coupon!! There is a store locally that does coupons. I need to go over and use mine!! Oh, the technical stuff. Well, I just learned a little at the time. xoxo
Maria, thanks so much! I do appreciate the encouragement, and yes, I agree about the overall feel of our little on-line society! It is a garden of friendships.
Andrea, I know! I find things donated — even family photos, etc., and it makes me wonder about circumstances that cause the donations. Thanks for visiting!
Will be out to make my blog rounds soon! I so wish I could visit everyone more often! Sigh. Today is a work day for me, in spite of the holiday.
I always knew you were a sprite! Cute, cute, cute… And what a photo. I hope that you are framing that one. It’s too good to just leave hanging here in cyber space.
Blessings, Debbie
Debbie, thank you! I had not thought of it, but you know what, I might just do that! LOL. And I’ll print one for you.
[...] know that I nearly wore out my last pair. (Sort of like the boots. Ahem.) It was shortly after begging my mom for new pantaloons on my public blog that she gifted me with a lovely new pair, stitched up her most beautiful [...]
