Denver

Like I said before, my sneakers have recently been to Denver. They liked it there. Here are some shots of other locations they landed me during my visit.

Led Zeppelin

The first town that I stopped into while visiting was great. So great in fact that I forget it's name! Anyways this is where I got to meet Led Zeppelin . He was chillin' in the back of a store looking quite content. Later on in this little town I had a great caffeinated beverage that was not from a Starbucks. More importantly this town is where I got my first ever cupcake hat (which you will see in the future).
Side View

After driving around in Colorado for a couple of hours I took a great breath of fresh air and saw this (please see above) from the side of the road. It was a good thing that I was not driving because the next thing that I found myself upon was this (please see below).

Trial Beers

Red Rocks Brewery on 16th Street in Denver was such a great place I ended up going there twice. They had so many new great beers to my tastebuds that they let me taste most of them....for free. When do you get that kind of treatment in Philly? They had the first keg of their Pumpkin Ale of the season to give out for free to whomever wanted to drink it. So I did.

Street Artist

While being on 16th St. I stumbled upon a great artist. There I found a small, yet perfect pink monster that would fit into my book bag for the journey home (we live happily in Philadelphia now).


This next picture is of my friend Julian, who is simply awesome. He was doing a lead climb during this photo so the rest of the gang would be able to climb the route. I actually made it to the top as well but with a lot more frustrations and curse words. Rocking climb was never anything that I actually wanted to do in my life... and now I can not wait till I can do it again.

Julian

Here is a shot that was taken at the place where we were climbing at. The building that you can see in the bottom of the picture is actually a part of the Coors brewery.

Gin

On my way up


This picture is last but not least. This is by far the coolest picture that I took while out in Colorado. It was a super wonderful day with great clouds in the sky. I know one day I will be using this picture for inspiration because it is just that super.

Cereal and eat it too !


Google has enriched my life...yet again! So after I scrolled over to Cookie Monster's crummy face (which I heard from someone that Cookie Monster now eats vegetables...so that is bunk) I was thrilled to find out that it was the 40th anniversary for Sesame Street. Not that I really care about any of that, this little bit of information made me reflect on my childhood..which I am obviously hanging onto. As I finish my beautiful bowl of colorful cereal, which you can see above, I think back to when I was a kid and how I had one aisle to talk my mom into buying me this sugary shit with an even junkier toy inside. I would then follow up these efforts by actually never having more than one bowl of cereal. How I see it now is this was just the beginning of my ventures in sales. I don't think that I was so successful when it came to talking my parents into buying me pretty cupcakes... That I am not over! As promised before my friend the Pirate took some sweet pictures. As for the ones that I am not in they were taken by me :) Happy (belated Halloween) Thursday / Unbirthday / Whatever!!!

in MY shoes

This is the first of a series you will be seeing of pictues of my shoes. The deal with that is besides the fact that my shoes are normally pretty cool I have come up with the idea to let you the veiwers see were my shoes take me (for those who are married and with children...go ahead...you can pretend that they are your shoes). So I am letting you in my shoes....not my pants...but it's a start...so congrats!!!
This was taken in Colorado just outside of Denver at my first ever rugby game. There I got to meet a bunch of awesome guys, learn the word scrum, and see the city skyline with the back drop of giant mountains. Needless to say I had a stellar time. The sun was shinning quite nicely and the grass was extra lush, that is why my shoes were not on my feet. P.S. the teams colors were red and black...good thing I packed extra shoes!

Variety in the House

I just needed to share this photo that I took one day while checking some festival thing out in the city. I went with 3 of my girls and they all rolled out of the house and down the street in the following. I swear on my life this was not planned, I did not dress like them, and that all of this is true. PLEASE NOTE the bags that they carry are all on the same shoulder and they all have a blue shirt on that has been paired with some type of comfortable black pants. For everyone who says that they don't care what they look like even on rainy days.....yes you do!!!

Sooner or Later

Sooooooooooo..... I just got some photos that were taken by my girl Sarah Schu. There will be more of her work for you to view later, so pencil that in your agenda. These pictures were taken for my first collection in school, Fall 2008 titled Love Triangle. It was a collection of only 3 looks but I had a story for each one. There was a girlfriend, a seducer, and a boyfriend/ cheater. Hopefully if you are reading this blog you are old enough to have played at least one of these roles. It was a great concept, even better garments, but I really need to hand it to my super stellar models. Here are a few shots. Enjoy!
