About me

 Hey babes!! My names Grace Simone :) I made this blog in hopes to build community and get out of my comfort zone! On the outside I'm a Barbie dream house but on the inside I'm more like a haunted house - in like a totally fun way ;) That's probably what you can expect from this blog...pretty and pink on the outside but morbidly curious on the inside ❤︎

So happy to have joined this lovely community ᥫ᭡.

Old is Always Better

                                       Old is Always Better

Every time I visit an antique store I am reminded how much better old things are. I find it funny sometimes because when I was a child I feared antique stores because "everything belonged to dead people" now I think that's the reason I adore them. To know that something has been treasured through time with enough love to keep it safe for me to admire years later can be quite beautiful to think about.

I recently visited an antique store with my girlfriend and wanted to share some fun finds...





I absolutely love dolls, I have my own collection that I would love to share on here. I particularly loved how this dolls bow matched her eyes beautifully.






If the doll above had a hair brush it would be one of these. I want to find a hair brush like this but it's so hard - I recently found the Rock & Ruddle brushes but $54 for a hair brush is difficult for even my shopaholic self to justify. Let me know if you have any other recs!

First Post!

 It's 5:34pm and I've been working on this blog since 10:18am. Seven hours of perfecting every little thing - just so I could put off this first post. I wonder why I do this so often...putting off things I really am looking forward to...maybe I'm afraid it won't be as expected, maybe I'm afraid I won't be as expected. I'm certain I'll never pinpoint what causes such enigmas in my mind - to have dreams but never enough drive to achieve them. Maybe wanting something for so long is much more appealing than doing it. You see, writing this blog seemed much more glamorous in my head than in the moment. It's still everything I expected but I think it just seems much too real to be a dream anymore, and now I can never dream of it again. I think sometimes maybe I'd rather dream forever, but not this time. 

Thank you for reading ᥫ᭡.
