what I put on my belly

The joys of a larger belly. SO Far I have gone through THREE Basq Body Butter and on my SECOND Resilient Body Oil. I also got a free Body Polish when I purchased the Basq products from Pea in the Pod. Um that place is expensive. I think I will try seeing about getting the products on EBAY.

this stuff smells so good and feels so good. I tried the Palmer's Lotion and I hated the way it smelled.

HAD to use my phone to take pictures....Oh so I scored this super cute...super soft bib dress from the one and only CITIZEN ROSEBUD  I was invited to join her and other Sacramento bloggers for a little chat and mingle. GOOD TIMES. OH and my necklace from Kerry aka Equine Bovine. You might see more vintage finds from her cause she is now part of Crimson & Clover

New simple jewelry- Our store has been soo busy with an estate we are sorting out. So many good finds we are even going to be selling online! I haven't had time to make stuff but I am finding that I want to make better stuff and better charms. It's not like I price my jewelry super high but I just need a change and inspiration.

thinking of Grandma through my clothes

This is my Grandpa and My GRANDMA. They are both from NEW MEXICO. She always talks about New Mexico and how much she loves it. She is half Japanese and Spanish. She is 91 years old and I miss her and her stories.

Nicole made this last year and once I saw it I had to get it. I reminds me of my Grandma and her love of the southwest.

CLOGS CLOGS CLOGS..... I NEED MORE!!

When I was 16 I went to a thrift store and I became a thriftier. I fell in love with clogs around that time. However as I got older....I changed my style....NOW I have come full circle again and I have come obsessed with clogs again. I love the clunky, chunky, ugly shoes. Here's my clogs, I need more. Even on flickr there are people that have clog fetishes....

I bid on these on eBay, they are made by White Mt.

These were a birthday gift from my lovely partner Nicole of Flaming Hag Folkwear SO amazing and I just adore them, they make lots of noise!!!!

Oh and these!!! So sexy, the details are classic. I blog about these before

I have one more pair that even Nicole got on eBay, they are a tad to big for me but I think if I wear socks they would look OK. They are deadstock, they have a wood heel and maroon colored leather!!!!

CRIMSON & CLOVER over and over

So I tried putting the video on the our blog but it didn't work. So if you have never been to our store, here's a taste. I should have put the Crimson and Clover song as background music.
