How I Wear MY PEACE of jewelry - Me and My Brogues

Love, love, love My Brogues. They are men's shoes, Rockport that I bought from the thrift store. I'm all about comfort. And these are really comfortable with the rubber sole, yet still stylish.     Just puchased the jeans recently on "Black Friday" (day after Thanksgiving) When you have hips and butt, go with stretch only.

Paired the cords with my pirates of penzance shirt, Staring at the Stars that I got from URBAN OUTFITTERs , of course. It's lightweight, comfy and different from the usual "blouses" that are being worn today, by our fashion forward divas. Cords are skinny, stretch cords from The Gap MY PEACE of jewelry - EARRINGS I made these using brown bronzed wire, which I twisted,    Heishi Turquoise beads,  a nd silver dance bells.
