More, more, MORE! That’s how we do things here at The Manor. When I started this blog three years ago, I would have never anticipated that I kept at this page. Here’s to many more years, many more moments, and lots of fun. Xoxo, Lady Samantha

We’re all feeling that itch now that the weather is getting warmer. Down South we’re about to enter tornado season followed by the greatest two weeks of weather we’ve seen all year. I don’t mind tornado season because we always throw tornado parties. We grill steaks before the sky bottoms out and have a pitcher of sangria from @columbiarestaurant. (Don’t forget the brandy!) We catch up on our shows or puzzle with Mimi until the main event. Then it’s James Spann in the basement until the storms have passed. We’ve done it for years! It’s another way of using Sparkle Theory to made a day memorable.

Well, I’m officially a Cat Lady™️ which I’m sure we all saw coming. Now, it’s time to get down to business… How do you do Christmas with a slightly feral Holy Roman emperor?

Don’t I yearn, and ache, and shop? Don’t I deserve love…and jewelry?

Addams Family Values is in my top ten comfort films so it only made sense that Debbie is the official name of my right ovary. First she was sweet and then I was in the bed for weeks at a time. So? It’s time for her to go. My uterus is Fester because it is a total pushover. Doctor, I’m ready for the anesthesia to take me away to Camp Chippewa. 🫡

I’ve got style! I’ve got flair! I was there! That’s how I became the Lady. 🌈⚡️🥨🌶️🧠

NOLA based Krewe is having their giant yearly sale AND I picked up my faves for 70% off! 🕶️

Let’s be honest, we all shop on Amazon. Here are some of my favorite finds

What a difference a day makes! These videos were taken 24 hours apart. After a long time of pondering, I decided on the concept of my room: the backstage dressing room of a burlesque show. What can I say? I’ve always had an affinity for theatrics. I love shiny things and a great theme with creative choreography. I often find myself browsing the internet for vintage showgirl/burlesque costumes as a source of inspiration.

When we moved to the new digs, I put up paper towel curtains until I could find something affordable that fit the bill. I wanted the feeling of theater drapes but on a plastic shower curtain budget. Eventually I’ll find some vintage fringe to add to the bottom of the drapes.

I wanted bedding that was simple to make up but cozy for flare days in bed. I searched high and low and eventually found a bedding store on @etsy that was in my price range. (Read that last part as under $200!) The seller was a dream to work with and everything is customizable. My sheets and duvet are both from @costco. My nightstands are discontinued @bernhardtfurniture and were the first pieces of furniture I bought for myself. I was in design school at the time and pined over them for years!

There’s a long way to go, but it’s amazing what new bedding and draperies will do for a space.

Anyone else’s mouth water when online shopping? Just me? Okay. I’ve made a list of my favorite shoes from the @larroude sale. Spend wisely, my friends!

@beadedbodega is my newest obsession. Her clever use of beading beloved snack foods is sure to tempt any junk food junkie. You’ll want to keep your eye on her. She’s one to watch! 🥨🍭🍟🍫🍩

It’s that time of year when the sun heats things up. You dust off last year’s summer clothes and say to yourself, “Ugh, I need some new clothes.” Thankfully, you are a woman with a closet of solid basics, but you do want to jazz things up a bit without taking out a second mortgage on your house. Never fear, the Manor is here.
