On this day two hundred forty five years ago, America’s founders declared independence from England. Today, Independence Day is a grand celebration and what better way to celebrate the 4th than going to a hometown carnival! (more…)
I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter! We certainly did. My beautiful niece, Kristin, had the honor of playing the Virgin Mary in her school’s Passion play this year. It’s not the first time she’s had that honor and we are all so proud of her. Unfortunately, I have no picture to share. Due to the pandemic, it was just an in class production (no audience). I’ve featured stories about Kristin on the blog throughout the years and you can find one of those stories here. (more…)
Lizzy’s Latest is FINALLY back with a new post! It’s been a whirlwind of a month for me! Work has been crazy busy and I’ve been enjoying weekends with good friends. On one weekend in particular, my BFF, Packy, and I went skiing. It was my first time skiing and OH MY, what an experience! I will definitely detail that adventure in a future blog post. 🙂 (more…)
Last weekend, we were blessed with magnificent weather. Low humidity and temps in the upper 70s. Of course, we took advantage of this with multiple photo shoots. We spent Saturday in Richmond and stayed local on Sunday. I will detail the Richmond shoots when I feature those heels. (more…)
I just got back from a 4th of July getaway in Pensacola, FL. This was my first adventure since Christmas. I needed a break and some beach time. I had a lot of fun, was in good company, and hope to share this story on the blog one day. (more…)
Lizzy’s Latest Note: This post was supposed to go live on Sunday, but I had ongoing internet issues. Comcast is the WORST! Absolutely unreliable and I plan to cancel my service soon. As such, my Father’s Day post is a bit belated.
Greetings, my faithful friends and followers. I must apologize for my absence, but life got busy (again!). Adding to the delay was a technical issue that briefly took my website offline. I didn’t even realize my website was offline until a few days ago when I tried to update it and couldn’t get in. It was the worst feeling; my heart sank. So much of my heart and soul goes into Lizzy’s Latest. It is a passion of mine because I enjoy sharing heels and history with all of you. 🙂 (more…)
Taking pictures for the blog has been quite limited during this pandemic. With everything closed, we have been staying in the neighborhood for photo shoots. This time around, we ventured a little further into Southern Maryland. (more…)
If you’ve been following my blog on a regular basis, you know about my Forever BFF, Tammy, and my East Coast BFF, Packy. Well, there is one other girl who completes my trifecta of besties. She was a girl I used to know who remains close to my heart. She was my Eternal BFF, Shari. The first time we met was serendipitous and from that moment on, we became the best of friends. We got into so much mischief together (as kids do!), but always gave the appearance of being perfect angels. 😉 When we lost touch many years ago, I never forgot Shari, even searching for her over the years to no avail. Her impact on my life was immense and I often reminisced about our adventures and prayed that she was healthy and happy. (more…)
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! St. Patrick, patron saint of Ireland, had an interesting life. He was kidnapped into slavery by Irish pirates when he was just 16-years old. While enslaved, St. Patrick worked as a shepherd and learned the Irish language. During this time, he found comfort in prayer and developed a relationship with God. One night in a dream, God instructed St. Patrick to find his way to the coast. There he would find a boat that would free him from his captors. Obeying God’s advice, St. Patrick indeed found a ship that sailed him home. (more…)
If these boots look familiar, there’s a reason. They were featured on Lizzy’s Latest in December 2018, but in a different color. I originally purchased them in red and loved them so much, I bought them in black too. 🙂 My original post is here and the review is here. (more…)
