I'm a free-lance artist who sews a whole bunch and has a major weakness for cute shoes. This blog is about anything and everything I do that is creative.

I'm currently challenging myself to sew something new for myself every month and put together some cute ensemble to go with it.

This is what happens when you’ve realized… with horror, that indeed, your blue suede shoes were in that box that was mistakingly sent off to Goodwill when you moved. Some of us simply can’t go to Memphis without a pair of blue suede shoes… and how could *I*, of all people, board a plane and touch down in the valley of the Delta Blues in shoes of another color?? Ahh, in two weeks I’ll be walking with my feet 10 feet off of Beale :-D Then I’ll be off to Texas spend time with a friend I’ve known more than half of my life, followed by taking one of my best girlfriends out to dinner for her birthday in Louisiana… followed by another afternoon in my beautiful Memphis!

+   Look at all the pretty colors!  OMG Shoes  girls just wanna have fun

Accessories to go with the black-and-white dress. Going to “dress-up” the coral rose…some green tulle “leaves” and some white feathers to put on the waistband of the dress- nothing permanent, just something big, fun, and temporary.

Rose and earrings by New York and Company. MANY thanks to Tenille @ Joey Eric Style in Dayton, OH, for helping me find the perfect accessories today!

Shoes were previously ordered from Lulus.com. Use coupon code DLISTEDLOVE to get 15% off your order.

Green necklace is vintage… belonged to my grandma :-)

Sometimes half the fun of putting together the perfect outfit can be finding all the fun things to go with it….!!!

My recent shoe MISSION

Dangers of being bored at work lead to seeing these beauties on Plasticland….because looking at shoes makes me happy. Looking at shoes I have to have can make my whole day, especially when they’re actually affordable!


As luck would have it… they only had size 9…. cue this face:

So I get home and I check ALL over the web… I mean all over the web. Only available in sizes 5 or 6.

Repeat very unhappy face.

Then  I decide to try EBay in a last-ditch effort and ….

SCORE!!! Click “buy NOW” pay and…. we’re off!!!

After over an hour of scouring the internets, I have what I wanted and they’ll be here SOON!!

…I also have a pile of fabric for a coordinating dress ready to go :-)
