“I’ve been waiting so long…”
Over the past couple years, I’ve really gotten into playing bluegrass. Growing up learning classical music since I was nine, studying jazz in college, and performing rock when I moved to LA, it was only a matter of time that I started going to bluegrass jams and learning fiddle tunes. When I joined Shania Twain’s band on viola and fiddle, I felt like such an underachiever…everyone in the band plays at least 4 instruments exceptionally well. There I was on just viola and fiddle (which is no small feat) but determined to keep up with the Jones’, I started learning pedal steel, mandolin and took up vocal lessons. And what’s a fashion blogger to do when accessorizing instruments? Um, how about some awesome vintage instrument straps from Feedback Straps?!
It can’t get any better than these straps. Super comfy, extremely well constructed (this baby is not gonna fall off) and made from sustainable and vintage materials. All Feedback Straps are made with hemp webbing, which is very soft, sturdy and a sustainably grown resource. The premium leather is locally sourced, and hand tooled. And of course awesome vintage ribbon that makes these straps so unique and beautiful.
This little luna ring from White Hart Jewellery is so delicate and perfect for layering. I love little rings and jewels that are small enough to perform in.

I love your boots! 🙂 That is a very pretty strap too! I’ve known some people who add a guitar strap to their handbags to wear them as they are so comfy, this would be great for that! 🙂
Hope you had a wonderful Christmas!

Awesome pics girlie! I love that backdrop! I too have become quite the fan of bluegrass over the last few years. I actually have an uncle who plays the mandolin for his bluegrass band.
