{kindness} join the conspiracy :)

It's been one of those weeks. I don't want to say too much except a very special thank you to the wonderful people that have kept me in good spirits.

I received an e-mail with this quote:

"You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face... The danger lies in refusing to face the fear, in not daring to come to grips with it... You must make yourself succeed every time. You must do the thing you think you cannot do." - Eleanor Roosevelt

And to the friends that brought over cupcakes and flowers last night.

To my boyfriend that knew I needed junk food to stifle the tears and a glass of wine to make the night a little less bitter.

To my best friend that said they all must be crazy and for the texts that showed me there are people that care.

I'm facing the fear with a smile and the belief that I am blessed to have such supportive, compassionate and selfless people in my life.

Florsheim Shoes {closed}

His chiseled features, dark shiny hair, and stunning light blue eyes. Then you look down, and gasp, he's wearing sneakers. Not your run of the mill, fashion forward footwear, but we are talking Nike, Adidas, etc. running shoes. He's wearing them in a bar, with jeans, and a polo. If you're anything like me, the only times tennis shoes are acceptable are on the elliptical machine or running a half marathon. This boy turned out to be the love of my life, and with little resistance I was able to turn him into my fashionable sidekick. With a little help from Florsheim you can take your Valentine from sorry to sexy with a pair of shoes courtesy of this luxury brand. I've put together some inspirational looks for you. Just remember, you may not able to c...
