I ♥ Pinterest!

♥♥♥LOVE♥♥♥ 


It is one of the most fun ways to organize your creative bookmarks. Pinterest is a series of inspiration boards, just waiting to be filled up with inspiring photos. Pinterest has boards that are organized thematically waiting for you to add pins. A pin is basically a picture that links to your inspiration...whether it be a beautiful picture of a home...or maybe something inspiring for your classroom.

My Pinterest Boards will let you know a little about me...you'll find out that I'm a teacher who LOVES a beautiful classroom and creative ideas. You will also find out that I ♥ reading and that I'm in love with pretty things. So much fun...I tell 'ya!


To get started on Pinterest you need to request an invitation. Since the site is still in beta, you can’t simply join...I know...bummer. But don't be too sad you do have a few options. To request an invite you can either visit the front page and simply enter your email and wait. Or, you can find someone you know with a Pinterest account and ask them for an invitation. This is most definitely the fastest method to get a Pinterest account! If you want to join the fun and start pinning right away you can certainly email me for an invite. I'm sure that you'll LOVE Pinterest...so now that you know about this fantastic site...I really gotta go now...I need to go find some more inspiration and start pinning!

High Heels, Stockings and Garters

High Heels, Stockings and Garters .....

as said in the first posting with photos of this 6 inch high heels - you'll see some more photos of my black patent pumps ;). Hope you don't mind - but I'm really in love with this shoes!! My friend - she's a us shoesize 8 too - wears them together with amazing looking black, stylish stockings with a woven seam. For all lovers of garters - yes, she wears a garter belt with 6 suspenders under her miniskirt.
The shoes are 6 inch (15.25 cm) black patent Women's Domina-402 pumps from Pleaser shoes. To accessorize the black stockings and black stilettos - she wears a thin silver anklet ;). You just have to be carefull with the ankle-strap - to not destroy the anklet!

Sorry for the poor quality of these heelpix - but i just took them spontaneously when were having a glass of wine on the balcony. Both of us already dressed up in stilettos, stockings, garters and very short mini skirts - just before going out.

Thank you a lot for all the nice comments and email-reactions to the last posting!!!

High Heeled greetings & kisses

Very High Heels and Fishnet Stockings

Very High Heels and Fishnet Stockings...

Last weekend a friend of mine visited me - you might know her (she posted some photos on this high heel blog a while ago - e.g. Black Oxford High Heels and black seamed Stockings). She stayed 3 days at my place - and so I asked her if she would like to do a shoe-photoshooting again as a kind of revival. So, here are the results - just some funny but still sexy high heels and stockings pix - she even did some shoeplay and dangling pictures for you ;) . She is still used to very high heels - so she wears the 6 inch domina high heels from pleaser shoes very well. To the heels she wore black fishnet stockings, a quite short black mini skirt and of course a tight corset over the blouse and a tie - as we wanted to look like sexy business ladies ;). And I think we managed very good -imagine me and her walking into an office with these heels and outfit?

Hope you like it?! Best high heeled greetings and kisses

Sweet Summer

May was definitely a bad terrible blogging month...with end of year activities, curriculum writing, and summer sports beginning..I was in a non-inspiring kind of mood..but never fear...June is here! Wooohooo! And you know what that means, right? Summer is (finally!) here...regardless of what the calendar states...we ALL know that June=Summer. So in the spirit of celebrating our new found freedom...here are my summer plans.

1. Spend lots of time playing with my littles.
2. Clean up and redecorate the boys' bedroom.
3. Read, read, read! (Love my new Nook Color!)
4. Go to all of my kids' practices and baseball/softball games.
5. Yard Sales! (Enough said.)
6. Paint some neglected furniture.
7. Become a good blogger. (I'll really try...pinky promise.)
8. Make some new classroom activities to go with our Journeys reading series.
9. Organize.
10. Oh yeah...and teach summer school! GATE kids...here we go!

So...what are your summer plans? Do you have a to do list? Or will you just go where the wind takes you? I would love to know! Toodles! ♥
