Soles and Sleeves

Things have been crazy and because of that my blog has been slightly neglected. Between familial obligations, so much family in town the only silent moment is when we're all fast asleep, many days working on sets in the blazing heat all day in pants and long sleeves (I'm talking 6:30AM until 8PM), and that alone takes at least a day to recover from, and now Shark Week and we all know it's one of my favorite time of the year, my blog has taken a hit.

Well, not just my blog. My free days are spent in some form of comfortable clothes and a tank top or t-shirt with frizzy hair, so I haven't quite had the inspiration that I usually do.

So I'm putting my foot down and cranking this out while my niece (and I think sister) are napping, and what better way to celebrate a come back than with SHOES. My favorite thing to collect.

My high school friend Kallie tied the knot this past September and a special occasion calls for a new dress! Kallie and I met in high school when we were not only both on the softball team (where she once nailed me in the hip with the ball, lol) but also had a number of classes together all 4 years. We became quick friends and always have a great time together.

We tore up the dance floor!

When telling other people about Kallie, it often starts with "My friend Kallie, she shows cows!... and goes to poultry judging classes!..." She's country to the core and I love it.

I'm very big on birthdays and special occasions, and am strongly against myself wearing something I've worn a number of times to something as special as a wedding. Clothing holds memories and I like special memories to have the first impression on a fantastic new outfit. So the hunt for a great dress began...the day before the wedding! I am so, so pleased with the dress I found.

Little did I realize it would become a dress I would rock year round!

This time of year gets you all nostalgic and stuff, so I'm taking a walk down memory lane and revisiting some of my favorite looks from 2014!
