Feature Friday FREE-FOR-ALL {#1}

by Abbie

WELCOME to Five days…5 ways’ first ever:

five days five ways | feature friday free for all

Feature Friday Free-for-All Linky Party!

(Can you tell I’m excited?)

I’ll get to the party details here in just a second, but first I wanted to share a fun find with you, which will count as my “feature” for this Friday.

Well, hello there!

IMG_0552

I’ve been jonesing for a pair of wedge-heeled ankle booties for a while now, but a) I hadn’t found any I loved for b) a price I was willing to pay.

Until I stumbled across these beauties on Amazon, that is.

They’re suede leather and the style is Thriller by Seychelle.

(Disclosure: the above link is an Amazon affiliate link, which affords me a small percentage of any purchases made from click-throughs).

They had them in “Whiskey,” which is the pretty cinnamon color you see in these pics in my size for only $35.89 shipped.

Well, I had $20 left over from a gift from Christmas 2010 (can we say, biding our time?), so I got these gorgeous girls for a whopping $15.89.

Thanks for the gift card, bro!

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

And now that I’ve shared my giddy new shoe find, let’s get to the good stuff, shall we?

I’m so excited to see your crazy-creative projects, crafts, recipes, fashion, stories, home décor, tutorials…

…like the title says, it’s a FREE-FOR-ALL!

If you’ve blogged about it, I want to see it!

1. Link to your specific post URL instead of your blog URL (no limit on the number of linkies, so add as many as you like!)

2. Grab a party button so that others can join in the fun! (Text link-backs are great too! : ))

3. Consider visiting/commenting on at least 2 of the other links. You never know what kind of inspiration you might miss out on if you don’t. Plus we all love to read words of encouragement! (I know I do!)

4. PLEASE, no shops or giveaways!

5. If we aren’t already friends, would you do me the honor of getting regular post updates here?:

or you can:

subcribe for email updates,

and/or join our Facebook page!

We keep it lively at 5D5W, and I’d love to have you following along.

Plus, I’m a social sort, so I love meeting sweet new friends!

For this first party, we’ll keep things simple with two categories:

1. Fashion

2. Everything else

Your comments make me smile. And smiling's my favorite! -> ...
Love the post? Then follow the blog! Please?

Oh, and you can like it too if you want!

    Congratulations on your first party! Looking forward to watching it grow!

    By the way, as a homeschool mom of 16+ years, I got a kick out of your denim post! Denim jumpers were a staple in the wardrobe when I started homeschooling my kids!

    Blessings,

    Hi, Abbie. This is my first time visiting. You have a very cool site here and those booties are fabulous. I shared a German pork and sauerkraut recipe, a sesame chicken meatballs recipe, and an apricot chicken with gorgonzola and mozzarella recipe today. Thank you for hosting us and have a great week!

  30. Love the linky party! Love the boots! LOVE the tights! I have been "blessed" with my father's muscular calves, which sounds great, but they are very curvy on my short, small body so I never feel comfortable wearing graphic tights even thought I love them so much!

Also, I linked up the Master Bathroom Redo that you liked so much. Thanks for stopping by my site: www.potholesandpantyhose.com. Thanks for the invite and thanks for hosting the party!
