This and That and Shoe Clips

Happy Monday All!

It's been almost a week since the big haircut and I am adjusting nicely. The semester is winding up - I have to finish up the project for my sketching class and write an essay. Today I took 2 exams and am very happy to have completed Interior Design History 2 and Lighting Class.

Over the weekend I went to John's sister's Graduation - President Obama was the speaker! What a neat experience that was! We walked around for what seemed like forever trying to get into the U of M stadium - everyone had to walk through metal detectors - and finally got in and found seats. His speech was lovely, although not too much about graduation, mostly politics, but fascinating. He stressed how even if we are in an argument, or disagree with someone we should still listen to what they have to say. In summary the message was listen and be nice.

My younger sister attended her Senior Prom and had a blast. I'll post some pictures when I am able to locate my camera cord- for now - you'll just have to enjoy a photo taken by our neighbor, Elizabeth (a very talented young woman and sister to Taylor's boyfriend.) She looked simply beautiful!!

Being at these dressy events over the weekend had me looking at all of the different shoes. Now me, I'm a super picky kind of shoe girl. I find a pair of shoes and I like them I'll either wear then out - or - never wear them for fear that I'll ruin them! I know, extreme, but that's just how it goes.

For those of you who have a pair of shoes that you just love, but want to spice up every once in a while there is a great alternative. Shoe Clips.

Shoe clips are a simple, yet genius invention that allow you to change the look of your shoes in a flash. I have searched Etsy for shoe clips and here are some of my favorites - Enjoy - and please take a moment to click on the photos and give these lovely shops a run through.
