Profile - Slim Paley

Slim Paley and I have a great deal in common.  We were both born in Canada* and coincidentally we both started a blog at .... (ok for both our sakes I'll leave that one up to you to find out), we both have sons and we're both finding ourselves through blogging.  Sadly that's about all, but I'm aspiring to reach her level.  Slim Paley isn't her real name (again I'll leave that to you to find out), but she chose this handle as a homage to the style of Slim Keith and Babe Paley, two of New York's top socialites of their time who were known for their impeccable taste in everything. Can you think of anyone better?

She currently lives in Santa Barbara, California, but also has homes in Sun Valley, Idaho and a lovely beach house at Carpinteria, California just outside Santa Barbara.  All of her homes are beautifully decorated and for those living in a northern climate, check out the beautiful floral arrangements from her garden.  It puts my little flower pots to shame.  Meeting stylish people that are inspirational is one of the things I like most about blogging.  Check out her blog.  With her wit and sense of humour you'll mark it as one of your favourites I'm sure.

*Footnote:  Ooops, turns out she was actually born in Ireland, but she is a Canadian citizen so there is that.  So much for my researching skills.

  2. Good post. I learn one thing tougher on different blogs everyday. It's going to at all times be stimulating to learn content from different writers and practice somewhat something from their store. I’d prefer to use some with the content material on my blog whether or not you don’t mind. Natually I’ll provide you with a link in your net blog. Thanks for sharing. casino play
