Hello everyone!
I'm away on a beach vacation,
enjoying a little fun in the sun.
And, of course, that means
the Ooh La Frou Frou girls are here with me!
It just so happens that this Monday
falls on Independence Day, so
if you're in the States,
Happy Red White & Blue!

As I mentioned last week,
even though I'm gone to the beach,
I simply couldn't leave you without some
dreamy tropical images to enjoy too while I am away,
so I hope you enjoy these from Pinterest.
I'll be back next week,
so please join us for next Monday's blog post
and more glamorous adventures of the girls of the
Ooh La Frou Frou Collection card line.
But, until then,
come to the sun and sea with me ...

I hope that all of you
are having a lovely summer too!
Even while I'm away,
I'll be reading your comments,
thanks to my trusty Blackberry.
However, it doesn't let me comment back very well
so I'll have to catch up with that when I return.
Remember ... our Ooh La Frou Frou posts
with glamorous fun in the city will be back next week!
In Hope's Glamorous Review a few weeks ago,
we learned that she lives in a very chic city
apartment buiding with a doorman called
"The City Girl."
Next week Hope is faced with a shopping dilemma
that she'll need your help with ...
(she's so glad she has her Glamorous Girlfriends to call on).
Until then ...
the girls and I leave you with this ...

classiq: Thank you, darling. I am thoroughly enjoying my vacation ... it's been some time since I've taken a beach vacay and it's one of my favorite things to do. Hope you're enjoying your weekend, as well! I'm lucky because I love what I do, so going back to "work" in the fantasy world of Ooh La Frou Frou is actually a treat! ;) xo
these are gorgeous sunny shots that make me want to swim in the sea :). I love the palm trees.. hope you're enjoying your vacation a lot.
SoapyMermaid: I love palm trees too ... I took some shots at one swaying above me as I was lying on a lounge chair by the pool. Love, love, love it! Thanks for stopping by, sweetie .. hope you're having a lovely Monday! xo

Hope you are having a lovely vacation Sandy! Those images make me feel like I'm at the beach and have just been drenched by a luscious wave! Believe it or not, it's the closest I've been to the beach in awhile--I try to stay away from all the tourists in the summer, lol. But maybe I'll slip away today for a little r&r :)
xo Mary Jo
Hope you're having a wonderful vacation, sweetie! You know nothing beats toe sun and the surf for me :) Enjoy every second! xoxo
Beautiful post!

Mary Jo at Trust Your Style: Hi darling Mary Jo ... thanks for stopping by! Hopefully the beachy inspiration will persuade you to kick off your shoes, slip on your suit and pretend to be a tourist! I won't tell! ;)
Dawn at The Alternative Wife: Hi Dawn, sweetie. I know, nothing makes me feel quite as much like a kid at play than being at the beach! Well, maybe the ice cream truck. ;) xoxo

Margarita Bloom: Such excitement .. a revamp of your website! Fun stuff! No beach, huh? Oh well, I guess the consolation is that if you're like me, we love what we do so even though we're at work it doesn't really seem like ... work! Thanks for stopping by, sweetie-pie!
Fashion-isha: Hi lovely. I did enjoy the fourth and the entire couple of weeks that I've been playing while on vacation! So nice to take a little time sometimes and have nothing better to do than ... well, nothing! LOL! ;) Have a wonderful week, sweets! xoxo
So ready for a vacation...PERIOD! Looking forward to my European vacay at the end of September...I was also able to squeeze a trip to Paris while away, too! Miss you mon amie! XO
After seeing these pictures I am convinced I need to go to a beach immediately. :)
Beautiful celebratory summer photogrphs. Yes, I have much published poetry, but not a published collection...yet. Have a lovely day ~ xox Alexandra
Naomi V Goodman: Hello Darling Girl. Miss you too! Am so happy to hear that you are able to sneak in a trip to Paris while in Europe .. I know that's a dream of yours! How exciting ~ can't wait to see the pictures! I've so enjoyed having a little time to relax in the sun .. you, more than most, know how busy my normal schedule is! Thanks so much for stopping by Ooh La Frou Frou, Naomi. xo
The Little Flapper: Oh, yes, indeed you do, sweetie! I highly recommend it. Nothing like the ocean sounds to lull you into dozing on a lounge! My normal day-to-day life has become very busy as more and more people discover Ooh La Frou Frou ~ which I so love ~ but it's nice to have the balance of time to not think of anything at all except how wonderful the sun feels on your shoulders and how silky the water feels as waves lap against your toes! Thanks for being a part of Ooh La Frou Frou, darling!
Coco Coterie: I assumed that surely you must have had some of your poetry published, you're so very talented. And I'm sure that collection is somewhere in your future! Thanks for stopping by Ooh La Frou Frou, Alexandra. Have a wonderful week!
I am so in love with that picture of the girl in the water! I wish we still wore hats like that!!

Sandy, this is a lovely post! Thank you for your sweet comments on Big City Belle. I am looking forward to visiting my favorite girls next week! XOXO

Heather - Big City Belle: Hi lovely! You're oh-so-welcome, of course! So glad we found each other! I, too, am looking forward to the fun Ooh La Frou Frou adventures again next week,as well! It's so nice when you love your job! ;)
Hi lovely lady, these are some majorly dreamy images, so imspiring and relaxing, thank you for sharing...one of my faves "Embrace Messy Hair", hahaha! I hope you are having an amazing vacation :) xoxo
DEva Weddings: Hi, darling! So good to have you stop by! I did have an amazing vacation ... just back today. So nice to have a chance to have days in a row of warm sun and the sound of the surf, being able to jump in a pool when too warm. Just delightful, but happy to be back too! xo
Awww...Sandy, you are just THE CUTEST, SWEETEST thing...EVER! =) Thank you so much for stopping by & for sharing your sunshine. I feel it & I appreciate it so so much! Hope you had a beautiful 4th. & an AMAZING vacation! I'm SO happy to hear that you actually missed "work"! =) LOVE when that happens. That means you are absolutely meant to do what you do! One of life's greatest accomplishments! Have a beautiful rest of the week & again...thank you SO very much! Love & Hugs to you! XO
Veronika: I'm tempted to say "NO, YOU .. NO, YOU" like kids do when you say I'm the sweetest thing ever, as you're a sugar-pie too! I DID have an amazing vacation and the sound of ocean waves crashing in while I lie on the beach is still with me, but I feel very blessed to do what I do! Thanks so much for stopping by sweetie and have a totally fabulous end of the week! XoX
Hello my friend,
My goodness, so pretty — I wish I were in one of these beautiful images right now... at the moment, it's raining outside and not so nice — though that's fabulous for our plants — it's what keeps British Columbia so beautiful... but I'm craving some beachy days, floppy hats and a stunning black one piece. I hope you had an amazing time away — you truly deserve it — and work so hard! You give so much in these posts of yours and create such a glamorous and beautiful world that we just love and enjoy... so thank you :)
Wishing you a fabulous close to the week.
xx, Sarah
Keeping up the fun while you're away, that is frou frou girl attitude;) These captures take me away to beach daydreaming. Wonderful that Summer represents so much fun isn't it? Hope you're having a spectacular holiday Sandy :)
I wish I was at the beach! I hope your trip is a blast and that you get lots of sunshine! xo
Enjoy the time away. I hope you are soaking up the sun on a beach somewhere.......those pictures made me instantly want to start planning my next vacation too!
Sarah Klassen: Hi sweet Sarah .. always such a pleasure when you drop by to comment! Glad you enjoyed the beachy post, and yes, I did have a lovely vacation. There's something magical about waking up day after day knowing the only thing on the agenda is PLAY. (woo-hoo!) But I do love what I do, so when I am back to work (just got back the end of this week) it's like travelling to a fun place again ;)xoxo
Taj Acosta: Hi Taj ... yes, my trip was a blast, loved every single minute and I am back now! It was so much fun waking to the sound of the ocean (we were that close) and jumping in the pool whenever I got too warm or dropping by the tiki bar for a little umbrella drink. I'll send you an e-mail this week about the illustration for your button. xoxo
Noelani: Hi sweetie. Yes, I did spend time on the beach, right on the ocean and it was a dream. It had been a while since I had been away on a beach vacation and it was a very good thing! Always love being back at Ooh La Frou Frou, though, since whenever I illustrate, I am transported to wherever the girls are ;) xoxo
Christel at Captivated by Image: Thanks for dropping by, Christel. I had a simply fabulous time at the ocean but now I'm happy to be back, as well. Life here at Ooh La Frou Frou is an adventure too! ;) xoxo
