Happy New Year!
I wanted to say thanks for making my last 7 months on Tumblr fantastic. I wasn’t really sure what to expect when I started this blog but the Classic community on here - and other great blogs that I’ve found since - went above and beyond.

In these short months, I’ve managed to get...

White Christmas Trivia
I know way too much about this movie, which I’ll be happy to divulge to someone who is interested, but here are some trivia highlights:
Danny Kaye’s shoes almost always match his socks. Even though she made breathtaking gowns, Edith Head loved dressing men and dyed them on purpose

White Christmas
Here it is ladies and gents, the entry I’ve wanted to write since I started this blog back in May on one of my favorite movies of all time. It’s been a huge part of my life, watching it at least once every Christmas for as long as I can remember.
