crummy pictures, new boots

i busted my camera lens the other day and had to go to the camera store to get a new one.  of course when i got into town i found that the camera store wouldn't be open for an hour and a half (i am not a planner) so i wasted some time trying stuff on at tj maxx.  i didn't get anything, but it occurred to me to take pictures with my camera phone of my new boots on.  that big blur on the bottom would be my thumb.  but here's the boots.  i love them.  

boots boots boots MY GOD BOOTS

I know I'm being a freak about boots.  (I said BOOTS...I'm perfectly sane and reasonable in ALL other areas of life.)  I just cancelled my last order of boots I THOUGHT I had settled on because I found these vintage 1940s lovers from this shop.  If they don't work out I'm just gonna go barefoot.  ENUF IS ENUF.

channelling little house on the prairie

excuse me but i have the attention span of a naked mole rat today (everyday) and i just feel like posting these short random musings.  i bought this dress off the etsy front page yesterday because i love it.  i love the sleeves.  i love the little stitchy yoke.  it's from the shop quarks.  and now i CANNOT stop imagining wearing it with the granny boots from my last post.  the cuteness of this combination is making me freak out.  the only hitch is that the boots are outrageously expensive.  so i need a purchasing strategy.  it eludes me.  is there some possible way of possessing those boots without going broke?  does sundance do trades?   

yes, please

boots circa 1940s and japanese stitches

i cry that these are not my size.

and can we just take a minute this fine morn and look at a bit of japanese patchwork and stitching via sri?

yeah.  that felt good.
