Songful Style Link Party #36: “Wish I Knew You” by The Revivalists
It was my turn to choose the song for March and I went with “Wish I Knew You” by The Revivalists. Although this song was released 9 years ago, I heard it for the first time about 4 or 5 years ago and fell in love with it immediately. And now 4 or 5 years later, I watched the official music video for the first time and I fell in love even more. The Lyrics You shine like a starYou know who you areYou're everything beautifulShe's hot, hot like the sunThe loneliest oneStill everything beautifulWell I'll be god damnedYou're standing at my doorWe stayed up in the cityUntil the stars lost the warSo…

Tieks Take 2: The “Daenelization” of My Vegan Polka Dot Shoes & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up On the Edge #749
Do you remember my dotty Tieks from last week? Well, they are back again with this Daenel-inspired outfit that is not at all warm enough for the current weather here. But I am trying my best to manifest spring temperatures to arrive soon. I do it every year but it never works. Unfortunately, we are not in a frost-clear zone until mid-May at the earliest. So my springy outfits are merely fantasy at this point. But a girl can dream. And another girl can give the most amazing gifts! Do you remember that big box of beautiful that Daenel of Living Outside the Stacks sent to me last spring? Although…

I’m Dotty for Vegan Tieks & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up On the Edge #748
The dainty feminine style of ballet flats has always appealed to me, but I have never really found this style of footwear to be very comfortable for my rather oversized flipper feet. But that never stopped me from purchasing dozens of pairs of ballet shoes over the years. And almost all of the pairs I had accumulated failed me and my ground grippers. In fact, when we featured ballerina shoes for The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book two years ago, I owned 17 pairs of ballet flats that I rarely wore because I found them to be incredibly uncomfortable and completely void of any helpful foot support. Due to their shortcomings, I…
