I am so happy to hear what makes CC happy! Great post. I love jet set lifestyles (even though mine is stationary). About my sister's wedding. She chose the maid of honor gown and I just bought it. It is cute - brown a-line strapless. I am going to have one of my friends rework it after I wear it to something more my taste. The wedding is in Vail, CO in May. It will be beautiful
Mmm good answers - love the fantasy suitcase packing, my favourite pastime! Your painting is so gorgeous. Love the bold waves and colour use.
oooh that Hermes zebra case is to die for!!
Love this post!
Lovely CC so nice to know about you.
LOVE LOVE your painting!!!!

I am trying to think what might make me smile... have to work on it. i love the plane travel set (blanket and pull on soft shoes) need them soon.

I've always loved the jetset style but I think one should personalize it with something because otherwise it would be a bit boring.
Your painting is very good!
