Viva Las Vegas 15 - Thursday
Thursday as such a leisurely morning. We woke up late, eat breakfast at one of the restaurants at the hotel, watched some bands and then waited for the venders to open and after they did, we partook in some seriously crowded shopping.
My girlfiend Alisha, very upset this suit is a bit to small.
We call this photo "Regret"
She likes stripes, can you tell?
Stopping to pose with the always fabulous Micheline Pitt.
After shopping it was time to change and head over to Frankie's Tiki Lounge for the Pin-up Girl Clothing Meet and Greet. We had so much fun, and the tiki drinks were very strong, so needless to say the photos got more and more goofy as the evening went on.
After Frankie's it was time to head back to the Orleans to see Big Sandy and his ORIGINAL Fly rite boys. This was a real treat for me. I have seen Big Sandy several times but had always heard for my friends who have been going to shows longer then myself, about the original trio. They were so good!
Well, it has been over a month since Viva and I have been so bad at blogging that I am just going to end it there. I will finish the other recaps soon too.

Viva Las Vegas 15 - Wednesday Pre Party
I hope to be better about my Viva recaps this year then last. I don't know what was wrong with me, but I couldn't seam to bring myself to do them. So I think without putting a ton of effort into them and just getting them done will make the task a little less daunting.
Wednesday:
We arrived in Vegas at about 3:30pm, picked up at the airport by my girlfriends mother and she took us to this Mexican restaurant, Viva Mercado's. It was amazing. We met up with the rest of our gang that flew in on separate flights. We drank margaritas, had delicious food, chimichangas, and the bartender at the very end of our meal sent over Almond Tequila. It was very tasty, like nothing I have ever tasted before, but will try and find in Minnesota. Yum!
After our tummies were full it was off to check into the hotel and get ready for the Wild Record Pre-show. Last year, this was one of my favorite events. We wouldn't miss it! The line up was incredible. Noah and I budgeted quite a bit of cash to pick up CD's this time. The week before we left for Vegas we scowered the Wild Records Website to see which bands CD's we wanted. I'm glad we did, they had almost every artist on the label.
Line Up:
Group shot: Alisha, Steph, Ruby, Ashley and me
Gals: Me, Ruby and Step
and My love and I
I had such a great time dancing the night away and meeting up with Viva friends I met last year.
The perfect way to start out the week!

Fringe

“Betty Hutton - Somebody Loves Me”
A couple of days ago my girlfriend Ashley sent me this Betty Hutton Video to show me this amazing fringe dress. Of course with that came instructions with what color she would like her's to be. I don't know about you ladies but I love fringe! I just found a source for 9in fringe. SWOOON!
I was looking through some of my etsy favorites and realized I have several amazing fringe dresses there too! The dress from Atlas Falcon Vintage I almost bought, but is a little to small in the hips, so now that I have a fringe source I can replicate this dress. I have also seen in person this same dress in Cream. Which is, I think, more amazing then the black.
Since fringe seams to be popping up in my life more and more, I think I should really start a new project.
What is your favorite fringe dress?

Florance + The Machine
My new obsession is Florance + The Machine. I love her voice, I find it just magical. I also love her very androgynous look. There is something so beautiful about her alabaster skin and red hair. Stunning.
These photos are from her video "Shake it out". The styling for this video is incredible. You have to check out this breathtaking floor length gold beaded dress.
I have had yet another death in my family, (bringing to total to 8 in 12 months) and this song has been really relating to my heart in all the best ways. I really don't want to be negative, just wanted to share what's going on. The last year has really made me realize how truly lucky we are to have the people in our lives, and need to live life to the fullest. Which is why I am making some large changes in my life this year. I find music can sometimes identify and help coop with certain situations. This song does that for me.
This song is a reminder that we can move forward. I hope you like it as much as I do.
This is the their newest album. "Shake it out" is on that album. Check out this great video!

Closet overhaul
Welcome to stage two of organizing and de-cluttering 2012!
Second stage, Closets.
Before:
As you can see, I have exceeded the amount of space those boxes can accomodate. Leaving my closet always looking like a mess. So, I recently upgraded my scarf and stocking boxes. I have found so many new scarfs in the last few months that my box has overflowith. I decided while I was doing that to proporly fold them and colorize. Making finding the correct color a lot easier.
After:
I also moved my hat collection a little higher in my closet to prevent me from damaging them now that the boxes are bigger. I also invested in a few more hooks so now I can hang more. I rediscovered several hats I had forgot about. I love that about reorganizing!
