oh dear cynthia

i got my cynthia vincent shoes in yesterday!!! i love them. they are surprisingly comfortable for being so bloody tall. i'm not used to shoes quite this high and so i used today to walk around and get the feel of them. i couldn't do a major day shopping but i can be at my shop all day wearing them. i felt like the khaki tunic (from little ocean annie, which i love) helped to tone down the craziness. these are the wildest shoes i've ever owned. i only have a few pairs that are not in fact brown or black. i felt it was time to branch out a bit.
i took loads more photos for the etsy store today and will be working on listing everything soon. i'm a bit lazy by nature so we'll see when i get around to it. the photo shoot is the fun part. i'll try to give a sneaky peak too later.
this morning, i went running and then hung out at the park for a while. i got a pretty nice little burn. and my tan lines are getting out of control! ugh.
do you like my shoe close-up? you can see my large calf and my hideous feet pretty well. and my weird foot veins. i'm a really vein-y person. look at my hand!
mom's ring
a few weeks ago, my mom gave me this ring (the top one). my dad gave it to her when they were dating in 1965. isn't that sweet?! i love it. i used to wear it in high school but i don't think mom trusted me with it too much back then. knowing how much i love vintage, she figured that i'd take good care of her ring now. i can only wear it on my wedding ring finger, that's why it's stacked with my other band. it makes me feel special though. my parents have been married for 41 years and i truly hope i have a marriage like theirs.
