when she was visiting Prince Edward Island on Monday. Here again we have a perfect storm of things I'm obsessed with: nautical fashions, Kate Middleton, and Anne of Green Gables! To borrow an Andie-ism, I die.
I don't mind telling you that I have a girl crush on Miss Kate/Catherine/Duchess of Cambridge/whatever you want to call her. Although I've never been a big fan of navy (despite my long-standing love of sailor dresses), seeing her wear it so well is giving me a new appreciation. Inspired by Kate's fabulous Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen sailor dress, I've created a new Pinterest board specifically so I can collect nautical inspiration.
In case you haven't yet heard of the awesome and addicting Pinterest, it's a site that allows you to create virtual pinboards via a little button that you drag to your browser's taskbar. Anytime you see an image you'd like to Pin, you just click on that button and the application lets you choose a board in which to categorize it. You can designate as many boards as you like, you can follow other pinners, and you can repin photos from their boards to your own. Jennifer wrote a really good basic tutorial on how to use Pinterest on her blog.
To sign up, you do need an invite or you can get on the waiting list. If any of you would like to join, leave me a comment with your email address and I'll send you an invitation! I have 4 invites to give out. And if you're already a Pinterest user, leave me a link to your boards or your screen name so I can follow you!
Invite me!
ReplyDeleteInvite me too please!
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, I'm also in love with our dear Kate; and Wills ain't so bad neither!
I haven't worn a sailor dress since Princess Diana made them popular in the 80's but Catherine's is really lovely. I'm hooked on Pinterest too, you can find me there most days :)
ReplyDeleteI too have a little Kate crush. And, wouldn't you know, they are staying just a few blocks away!! All the neighbors banned together to ban anyone from their yards and to press trespassing charges, plus all the streets around there will soon close. So there is no lining up like they did in Canada or England. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteI'd love a pinterest invite. I need just one more way to kill time. LOL
I've been avoiding pintrest in hopes that I won't get sucked in. But what the heck, invite me.
ReplyDeleteIf you haven't used up your four invites already, I'd love one. I need a place (besides my hard drive) to save all my wish photos for my aqua and red kitchen!
