ABOUT

Suzanne Carillo Blogger

 Hi! I’m Suzanne Carillo, a 50+ struggling artist/designer, vintage loving, clothes-obsessed, fashion freak, pug cuddler that lives for a perfectly made extra dry, three olive Kettle One martini and hilarious true life stories.

Welcome! Welcome!

Can I have my husband mix you a martini? (he makes the BEST martinis!)

My husband mixes the best martinis

 Or how about a pig to warm your feet?

I like to make sure my guests are comfy.

This is my little spot on the internet where I get to share anything and everything.

For example… I don’t believe you’re ever too old to play dress-up.

You're never too old to play dress-up.

 My husband shares my penchant for dressing up and we can sometimes be found dressing entirely in vintage and heading out for an evening of swing dancing.

1940's vintage style for men and women

 Another thing I believe? You can never own too many boots/shoes.

my shoes organized

 Pugs are the warmest softest most wonderful companions even though they shed their weight in dog fur daily.

 I refuse to let my age dictate just about anything in my life, including zip lining and tree hugging.

Zip lining in southern Ontario.

 So I hope you’ll stick around and we’ll become friends. I don’t make many promises, but I can promise you this… it won’t be boring.

Hi! I’m Suzanne

Most of my closet is filled with vintage pieces ho Most of my closet is filled with vintage pieces however I do own a few Anthropologie pieces that I have collected over the years. This crocheted knit maxi dress is one of them. Funny thing about this dress is that the knit stretches as the day progresses. By the evening it is a couple of inches longer. I've had to hem this a couple of times. If only I too could get taller throughout the day! ⁣

I recently changed over my winter to summer in my closet and realized that quite a few of the pieces felt like they were meant for someone else. Has that ever happened to you?
