this passed weekend was chock full of loveliness. we took a little road trip to pioneertown to hear some yummy music. i want to tell you everything, but pictures speak volumes soooo...wait for them! i promise to edit them before the week ends. i did debut a few of my favorite finds in this here little story. the ring and the bag. how amazing is this bag?  the shape is so unique. 

i adore my black sabbath shirt. it is incredibly soft and the fit is divine.  i wear it too much. i thought it might be fun to wear in a slightly less grungy way than i usually wear it.  i bought the satin shoes thinking i would sport them often.  this purchase took place 4 months ago.  this is the first time i have worn them. um. ouch. they are extremely uncomfortable and a little kooky.  the kooky, i dig-but i refuse to suffer in uncomfortable shoes for long periods.  of course they were taken off five minutes after Nate shot them and exchanged for my comfy Coach pumps. 

i usually insole all of my shoes. especially the vintage.  if the shoe is roomy enough i will put in athletic insoles. but for wedges, platforms, pumps or narrow shoes i use Dr. Scholl's high heel insoles. they are made especially narrow but still provide the cushioning we need to dance to folk music all night long, in the desert, baby!
