I Was Twenty-One Years When I Wrote This Song/I'm Twenty-Two Now, But I Won't Be For Long

1. Over winter break my friends and I had wanted to throw a sequin-themed party. Unfortunately, due to poor timing and busy schedules, it didn't happen.

2. A lot of my friends are turning 21 this year. This is the last landmark birthday in America (until 50, 65, 100 I guess) due to our strange alcohol-related laws.

3. I turn 21 this May. (I hope you see where I am going with this...)

Sorta sequined... Well, whatever, it's shiny and that's the point.

Again, it's shiny, so that works.

I intend to life the sequin-themed party idea and transpose it onto my 21st birthday. Hopefully.

Make My Rainy Day

I'm dying for a good pair of wedges right about now.

Rumi posted these, and I'm really digging the Office ones on the far right, even though they aren't normally my thing. And my layout is totally going to cut this picture off in the middle of that pair, but I'll fix it later.

Here's a really blurry screen capture of the shoes from their site that I tried to fix up a little bit to show the detail a little better...

Also loving the Cynthia Vincent Luellas, either color.

AND the boots I wanted went on sale.

But, really, what I want are Jane's Givenchy wedges... because, "I'm like a really gothic person. rlyseriously."

Really, though, they're a little tacky sadomasochistic in the best way possible and I want them.
