My enthusiasm for Civil War history made Richmond, VA a frequent place of adventure for me and my dad. Yet, Richmond boasts Revolutionary War history as well! One weekend, we stumbled upon this sign at The Poe Museum. (more…)
So, I have to give credit to my dad for suggesting a carnival photo shoot for the 4th of July. When we were throwing out ideas, I thought it would be cool to take a drive to Williamsburg, VA and check out the President Heads. When I showed Dad some pics, he scoffed and reminded me my stilettos would get dirty in the mud. OK … maybe, not my best idea, but I was also a little hesitant about the carnival thinking it would be too crowded. Dad assured me we would go before it opened and despite my reticence, I agreed for lack of a better location. (more…)
Lizzy goes to the beach in this installment of Lizzy’s Latest! 😉 If you know me or have been following my blog, you know that I grew up on the beaches of San Diego. Some of my happiest childhood memories happened at the beach with my Forever BFF, Tammy. When we were younger, her dad used to take us and our brothers to the annual sandcastle competition at Imperial Beach. It was so much fun watching artists create spectacular works of art out of sand! When we were preteens, Tammy and I used to be dropped off at the beach where we would enjoy girl time and flirt with the cute boys…surfers for me and skaters for Tammy. Haha! (more…)
I had a full weekend of photo shoots a few weekends ago. It was long overdue because I had been procrastinating on blog work. During the downtime, my time was spent in good company taking weekend road trips to towns with Civil War and/or Revolutionary War pasts. We even made a trip to Hersheypark amusement park. We were fortunate that day because the weather was not too hot and the humidity was low making having to wear a mask bearable.

Is it really August? This summer is going by so fast, but I think I say this every summer. 😉 I bet if we go back to last summer’s posts, there is a similar sentence somewhere. (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…)
I hope y’all are enjoying this summer. I apologize for my absence … again! It’s been an adventurous summer filled with work, photo shoots, and travel. I have so much content waiting for me to prepare and share. I just need to find some time to work on them and I will find the time. Though, I have a feeling these summer posts may linger into fall. 😉 (more…)
Oh my goodness! Where to begin? I apologize for my extended absence from the blog, but life got busy. I’ve been traveling too. I took my niece, Kristin, on our annual girl’s trip to Hersheypark in Hershey, PA. We had a great time and I will write more about this in a future blog post. (more…)
Can you tell I’m on a cage heels kick? 😉 These Vince Camuto Paxton sandals are from last Summer. They are part of a surplus of blog pics that have yet to be published. I’m so happy to finally feature them this week before we say good-bye to Summer. (more…)
