Sexy Men from History

While surfing the Internet today I happened upon the most hilarious collection of old photographs. It was a collection of men in history blessed with good looks.  This site cracked me up so much I thought I would share it with you too!

Here are just a few lookers from mydaguerreotypeboyfriend!
I like his style and that pondering look on his face. I wonder what he is thinking about? 
Almanzo Wilder, married at 28 to an 18-year-old
Just plain sexy.
Hermann Rorschach, c. 1910. This Swiss psychiatrist
Related to Brad Pitt??? 
                         
                             "Stonewall" Jackson, Lieutenant in the U.S. Army during the Mexican War (1847)
Those eyes are so intense.
Is it weird that he reminds me of a vampire?...
Nathaniel Prentice Banks, Massachusetts governor, member of the House of Representatives,
Union General in the Civil War.
He's a bit small for my taste, but he has a very nice face.

This is just a little taste of the collection! If you want to see more visit

Inspiring Family Photos


While rummaging through a suitcase filled with old photographs at my parents house this weekend I stumbled upon some vintage photos of my relatives from way back when. It was fascinating to see the wonderful fashion of the past, especially the 20's. I just love how dressed up everyone got! 
Even the men were styling!

Make sure to look at the bubble skirt my Great Grandmother is wearing, so stylish. 
Love all the different hats!

Check out those hats!

The most Adorable Children of Asia

Over the course of my trip I met some wonderful people, many of which were children. These kids were so cute and loved the attention of the camera. So adorable.
