So, I took the weekend off...because I was with my friends at the Stagecoach Country Music Festival in Indio, California! It was SO FUN! So HOT!(see my poor burned feet...apparently spray-on sunscreen is not as effective as I anticipated!) So CROWDED! (see the photo of the venue---55,000 people!) I had an amazing time! Since I was literally camping in the dirt, there was no way that I was going to be able to get my "BLOG on" over the weekend! SORRY! (I know, I know....there are SO MANY people who are checking their computers every 5 minutes to see what I've posted! haha YEAH RIGHT!)It was a great weekend, with great friends, great activities (kickball, flipcup, running around in the dirt), great music---Carrie Underwood, Kenny Chesney, Rascal Flatts, Josh Turner...to name a few! I love my life.
ALSO I got the most kick-ass birthday present of ALL TIME....PRINCE TICKETS!!!!!!!!! I can't wait to go and see him shake his little high heeled wearing booty all over The Forum on Saturday night. Perhaps I will wear a Raspberry Beret and Party Like It's 1999! Thanks Daniela Keeler. You are awesome!
Fast Forward to today---Monday morning, after driving home and getting to bed around 3AM---I AM EXHAUSTED! I literally woke up, and put on the first thing that my hands touched in my closet. Thank goodness that I have this pair of Nine West Nude Platform Heels to wear in a clutch situation. They literally go with anything. They are "sexy" as one of the Special Ed aides told me today at work! HAHA LOVE IT! Nude heels are a "must have" in anyone's shoe collection because they not only go with every single item in my wardrobe, but they alse create the illusion of LONG LEGS! And let's get serious here people, I am a DAVIS. I have SHORT LEGS. God did not bless us in that department.
As with most of my shoes, these have a history. I bought them to wear with my bridesmaids dress for Brittany and Isaac's wedding last February. And I have consistently worn them on an, at the very least, weekly basis. They are THAT great. Sure, they are a little bit too big (I bought them from Henry's Shoe Experience---on Telegraph by Downey Frantones) and I kind of had to settle for whatever nude shoes they had...and I got lucky with these ones. MY only complaint with these shoes is that whilst I was wearing them at Britt and Isaac's wedding, I slipped and "took a knee" in the lobby of the venue....I maintain to this day that someone (not sure who exactly) spilled a drink on the tile floor right before I walked through---THAT is why I fell---it most definitely did NOT have anything to do with the Open Bar. Absolutely not. :) Being a part of Britt and Isaac's wedding was such an honor---Britt is one of those really special friends. She has ALWAYS been such a blessing in my life and being able to wear these amazing shoes in an amazing wedding for such an amazing woman and the amazing man she loves was an HONOR.
Now, I will never put these shoes on without remembering WHY I have them, and also without remembering that the special ed aide told me that they are "sexy". Ahhh...not exactly the look I'm going for at work!
