Another swell sweetheart dress just before sundown. Photographers talk about the golden hour, the hour before sunset...but for people pictures...we've found there is a golden twenty minutes...any photos taken fifteen minutes before the sun goes down...my face starts to look grainy. 
I only have *one* pair of pink tights & they go a bit purple-y...so teggings it was...I guess I need to stock up on pink tights. I've only got the Fuchsia ones from We Love Colors & it's kind of the only pink they've got. Next fall, Snag Tights. 
I love Wendy Baker's jewelry so much! She has made me a bunch of single earrings in a new style she's been creating...I'm so excited for them to get here. 
My make-up with this outfit included...Urban Decay eyeliner in Deep End, Cotton Candy eyeshadow from Too Faced, Sugarpill Cosmetics eyeshadow in 8-Bit & Level Up, Cranberry lipstick by Bite Beauty, Ofra liquid lipstick in Santorini, & OPI nail polish in ?
I LOVE Snag Tights! They are by far the best tights I've ever worn. Unfortunately, they are having a rough time financially...like so many small businesses are during this pandemic. To help them pay the bills...they have a special BOGO free sale on right now if you buy a voucher to use starting November 1st. I bought 10, so for only $90, I'll get 20+ pairs of tights...enough to last me for several seasons of cold weather. If you'd like to get in on the bargain, Save Our Snags, not sure how long they'll be doing this. 
What have I been doing all week stuck at home? Why...watching more live music online, of course...here we had JP Harris & friend...as well as some of The Glenn Crytzer Orchestra.
I've managed to make it through my ~70-ish curtain books & now need to go back & decide which ones have the best instructions on how to sew what I envision for our windows.
More music! John Davey, Bret Helm (of Audra), Matt Fanale DJ-ing an all The Cure set (proceeds went to Underground Pet Rescue), & Amanda Palmer as a guest on Mondays in the Club: Farm to Disco...
 Where she danced in her underwear...
Last Wednesday I had to watch Charlie Parr perform live on the computer...& Amanda Palmer celebrating her birthday on my phone...(she had several special guests, including Brian Viglione).
A most delicious smoked salmon cream cheese omelet...with ramps, the menu from Dark Horse, Rye with one ear up, & a short message from Davina.
Suitcase Junket, Joe Pug, & Davina sharing a new song with us, Stir Crazy...I feel so lucky to have caught her live on Facebook twice in one day!
