This adorable Angry Owl necklace from ModCloth is only 15 bucks. The chain is plenty long, which is vital for plus sizes but not always easy to find. ModCloth doesn't carry plus size clothing but their accessories are so cute, I can forgive them.
I was at Target recently and picked up a pair of these Converse One Star sneakers in brown. I've had Converse sneakers in the past that I loved but were too narrow to wear for more than five seconds at a time. These run much wider and are so comfortable, I'm thinking about ordering another pair in charcoal gray. I got them in a size 8 and I usually wear an 8.5 in sneakers, so they run a little big. $30 for a pair of classic sneakers that actually fit my wide feet? Happy me!
Speaking of happy, check out these fun Tray 6 Umbrellas from wishingfish,com. It looks like several of the designs are temporarily sold out but my favorite, the gray with the little birdies, is still available. These are way cooler than my boring black umbrella. Hrmph!
I have this Nebula clutch by IMOOI in black and it's the perfect size and shape for a simple but unique clutch. It's faux leather and ultrasuede but it looks and feels like the real thing. The wrist strap is great and reduces the chances of me leaving the bag sitting somewhere. The red is more interesting but I needed a simple (but not boring) black clutch that goes with everything.
I haven't seen these Haddie Slingbacks from Payless in person but I get so excited when I spot cute shoes in wide widths! Especially when they're only $20. Have I mentioned my love for polka dots? These would be so perfect with a dress for the summer or capri pants all 50s style. Don't forget the bright red toenail polish!
If you're looking to update your handbag for Spring, eBags is having a 20% off sale through tonight at midnight MST.
This doesn't really have anything to do with the post other than the fact that you mentioned Payless. I usually wear a wide width shoe, but have found that the American Eagle line that Payless carries seems to run kind of big/wide and I can almost always wear the regular width. Actually, I tried a pair of American Eagle shoes in a wide width just a week or so ago, and they were too wide! That has never ever happened to me before. So if your looking for cute shoes and usually wear a wide and you're at Payless, try the American Eagles in the regular width, maybe you'll have some luck.

Speaking of Converse... I got a pair of All Stars right after Christmas and for some reason they actually fit and are comfy! I was shocked! I've never been able to wear them before. What's the deal?

I was shopping in Greenwich village the other day and came across an amazing store. HOUSE de LUX has the best jeans for my curves and are surprisingly so comfortable. I bought two pairs!!!

Many nebulae form from the gravitational collapse of gas in the interstellar medium or ISM. As the material collapses under its own weight, massive stars may form in the center, and their ultraviolet radiation ionises the surrounding gas, which creates plasma, making it visible at optical wavelengths. Examples of these types of nebulae are the Rosette Nebula and the Pelican Nebula.
