I've Been Pinning

Worked my tail off today - just one of those days where I truly relished the housework.  I was able to find joy in serving my family.  Folding their clothes, cleaning their rooms... a cozy, extended tuck-in time with EACH child... songs... story... prayers...
And I actually found myself with some Momma time at the end of the evening - and so - I found my way to Pinterest - (After telling you I never take/get the time to do it.)
I found this photo and many others that made me swoon.  Big Bad Time as my kids say.  As much as I love a garden wellie or tennis shoe covered in mud - I am a COMPLETE sucker for high heels - black in particular.
You long time readers know I want my carbon footprint to be in the shape of a Louboutin.

Got Pinterest boards you think I'd enjoy?

those do make me swooney, though i am less than graceful in that high of heels! {to put it mildly!} your mama pinned some amazing wellies the other day. my heart about pitter pattered out of my chest! isn't it odd that the days we seem to get a ton done, feel good about doing it, are actually the days we end up with MORE time?! happens here too!
and i just emailed you back:)

Hi Angela!

I have a comment about fashion and Pinterest.

I have no fashion sense (and I'm very overweight - something I've just started to work on). My fashion is anything that slips on, is stretchy, and hides.

Pinterest has opened my eyes. I love it when I find pins that have 'ensembles' put together (especially since I am a working professional).

I was motivated to do something and let me tell you - it's changed my whole perspective on fashion because I've learned that I can look good, too.

I took my fashion 'pins' and made a real life focus board. Then, I started to put up my 'hide-it-all but nice professional wardrobe' on eBay. With that money, I turned around and purchased, on eBay, clothes that I needed to put together my focus ensembles.

I needed inspiration. I needed a way to achieve. I needed a serious lesson in fashion. Pinterest gave me all of that!

I love Pinterest's fashion avenue and am so thankful to the women/men who put up their pins.

It helped changed this woman (and soon to be fashion Diva and not afraid to say that).

I love your fashion pins!

Kelly
