A hell of a skirt (and some pretty awesome shoes too)!

I started my day with a great yoga class. The Saturday class I like to go to starts at 9:00 and I have missed it the last few weeks because I slept in too late. Today however, the dogs were up and about earlier than normal so I was up in time for class. I'm so glad I went. It feels good to start the weekend with yoga. From there, I went to pick up my "little sister" (through the Big Brothers/Big Sisters program). We decided to have a craft day. We had a lot of fun making valentines cards! When I got home, the mail lady was walking up to my house with an anthro box in tow. I could not wait to try on the Hellebore sweater skirt! Here it is - soft, warm, cozy, and beautiful!

Cardigan: J. Crew

This is one of my favorite pairs of shoes. This post from Goldenmeans first brought these shoes to my attention. I went back to them over and over, drooling over their beauty. Unfortunately, my size wasn't available from Ped shoes at the time. I emailed them, only to find out that they were not planning on restocking. I can't say enough good things about the Ped shoes customer service team because MONTHS later, I received an email letting me know that they did in fact get another shipment and my size was available! They are perfect!
