Victoria

Somebody Pinch me!

Whenever I hear fantastic news, I always convince myself that if I say it outloud, it won't come true.. But, since I wanted to post this news, I thought if I at least checked online, and could find proof that "Victoria" is coming back, then maybe it wouldn't be bad luck . So I typed in ...

VictoriaMagazine

It's true! It's true! I can't begin to express my sheer delight that my favorite magazine is returning!

During the years that I owned my shop, Victoria Magazine was my biggest inspiration... my bible you might say!

I carried each edition with me loyally where ever I went. Just in case I might need to reference "a look" or "a designer" or to read about an entrepreneur such as myself...(I have to giggle when I put myself in the entrepreneur category, I guess I never felt worthy of the title~) Anyway, when a new copy would arrive in my mailbox, I would eagerly thumb through the pages, hoping to find as many lovely designers "pretties" as I could and squealing as I found one inspiration after another! It was so rewarding to have the opportunity to feature such talented artists in my shop! Oh the "Buyers Guide" was a treasure trove!

No doubt everyone in the free world already knows about "Victoria's" debut except me... I've always been a dollar short and a day late kinda gal and probably always will be. But it makes no difference to me when I discovered this wonderful news, just the fact that I know it now is all I need to know!! lol...Oh November, will you ever come???
