the sun goes down at 1900

I probably already said this, but my favorite time of day is late afternoon around 4pm, when the sun has the warmest glow and everything looks like it's in sepia. I have fond memories of my mom giving be a bath around this time when I was little and I remember the innocent smell of Johnson & Johnson "no tears" baby shampoo. So I especially love it when the sun goes down later during the summer. It perpetuates all these nostalgic memories.


Oh! And meet Miss Luella Barkley. She's so itty bitty, she's smaller that my Jessica Simpson platforms. Either that or these platforms are ridiculously chunky........ um, yah, they're pretty, ridiculously chunky. Thanks to Rumi of fashiontoast, I was compelled to buy these monster truck shoes despite the injury risk level. These babies put me at Shane's chin level (he's not so itty bitty). If you're looking for these killer platforms, Laurie told me that Shopnastygal will be carrying them soon, but there made by Jeffrey Campbell.
Vinny says "Look ma! I'm itty bitty too!!!"

cardigan (ross), lace tee (bsky), skirt (ross), shoes (jessica simpson), necklace (f21)

Speaking of perpetuating "sentiment", I wonder if I should hang on the these shoes for my daughter. I get so mad every time my mom tells me, "Oh, you like _______ ? I had 50 of them when I was your age" Well geez! It sure would be nice to have 50 pairs of truely vintage platforms!!!!

.... And in case you wondering about the other super rad necklace hanging on the rack, it'll be available during our sale this weekend. Obviously, we called it the "Palermo necklace!!!"
