Saturday loves~

i bought a pair of grey Daniel Green Outdoorsable suede kitten heels at Goodwill last week and got curious because they have a vintage tag. here they are in black selling on ebay for... $42. hey hey! i love finding treasures like these~

i saw this video awhile back about an elephant and a dog who are best friends at a sanctuary in TN. it's very touching and speaks to me about God's mysterious ways of providing for all His creatures...

two bloggers i found last week posted new videos ahanbarbie and carlythebarbie... they are friends in Chicago and their videos focus on fashion and makeup. i fixed my hair according to ahan last sunday.

i am a collector of words... i love the cadence of beautiful words so this list Obliterated posted from alphadictionary.com is awesome. i'll print. i'll post. and i will intertwine these words into my life. i do apologize in advance that sometimes Obliterated's feed titles don't reflect my vocabulary :) but i always love to see some of the imagines there so- so be it!
