Three Swedish Girls..

Today (May, 26 - somehow the "date thing" isn't working here - no matter how often I fix it..) is the birthday of Ingrid Goude who was Miss Sweden in 1956 (In 1951 it was a certain girl named Anita Ekberg..) and appeared in a few movies of maybe not really international fame..  

Though I happen not to care too much for nowadays beauty pageants (for beauty pageants at all.. I can't see why anyone should make her-/himself reliant to the judgement of a bunch of people - without need..) - I have a soft spot for the beauty ideals of the past.. (Maybe until the mid 1970's..) Well.. anyway.. 

Today I will spent the day in the city on my own - which I enjoy very much. It will be kind of a single girl's day - but of course to be with friend is also great - so here you have some pictures of Ingrid Goude having fun with fellow Swedish ladies May Britt and Inger Stevens. And for in Northern Hemisphere the Summer is beginning and at least in USA (for Memorial Day) and in Germany ( for Pentecost) Monday will be a day off (I am not sure whether Azerbaijian's and Armenia's Republic Day and National Day in Etophia are off, too) and I think these pictures really fit the occasion of a long, sunny weekend.. 

But first: 

Happy Birthday, Ingrid

- or:

 Grattis på födelsedagen, Ingrid!!! 

And now - have a wonderful weekend!..

..and don't forget: 

~ Keep your hair in style.. ~

~ make sure you look good on photos - and the light is right.. ~

~ Keep your feet clean ~

~ don't forget to eat a bit.. ~

~ and of course: have fun! ~

Thank you very much for listening!

yours very well and truly 

Irene
