The Low Down

This weird thing has happened to me. For a few months after Ben and I separated my feet were depressed. I had no interest in heels and wore converse every day. It was shocking.
Don't worry, I'm back in heels! But I also found this kind of happy medium in chunky heels and wedges. Where I used to be all about the highest heels possible, (which I still LOVE) now I'm flirting with more comfortable shoes for running around in.

I noticed that two of my stylish girlfriends had these perfect little wedge booties and I loved how they looked on them, so naturally I snatched some up for myself. They're that perfect height where you can't call them low but they're definitely not high. They're super comfortable and I can easily run around in them all day. Another thing these wedge booties are is inexpensive. On sale for $105 each, buying both pairs was cheaper than a pair of designer flats! Unfortunately they're sold out on Nordstrom.com but you may still be able to get them in stores.

I love high heeled high end designer shoes but I'm really excited to find great shoes at a great price. I'll be on the lookout for all of us! ;)

In fact, here are some affordable, comfortable looking booties I found on heels.com most with other colors available too...

XOX, 

Welcome Back Spring! I Missed You!

Ah, glorious Southern California sun, how I love you.

Today is so beautiful I had to wear something to celebrate! ;)

I picked up this little jumper whatever you call it thingy at- you guessed it- Forever 21. It's becoming my favorite place to shop, especially with our household budget squeeze. 

"Budget" is absolutely my LEAST favorite word. Yuck.

I'm thinking of doing a little mini DIY and switching out the buttons for something cuter. Like maybe some bubbly red heart buttons or some nautical looking buttons or something. 

Anyway. Here's my outfit for today. I wore these new Dolce Vita sandals for the first time. They're super comfy and a little sassy. Though I am now in my new black bikini and will be laying out until the sun goes down. You don't get to see that though. Ben would get super jealz.

I love this Marc Jacobs hair bauble. It reminds me of being young and it such a cute little accent without being too obnoxious. 

Shit Your Pants?

No... but you'll look like it if you wear Harem pants.

Still though, I can't help but feel like I need a pair. I kind of love them. 

Ever since I had a meeting with Gwen and she showed up rocking the shit out of them, I've felt like I needed to follow suit. Designers like Givenchy, Gaultier, and tons of others have sent their versions down the runway. Now us common folk can find versions at places like F21 and Top Shop. 

I think it's just about finding the right pair. I tried some on at Forever 21 but they were not good. I felt more like MC Hammer than a fashion maven. 

I'd want to pair them with some cute sandals like these by Dolce Vida 

I dunno, what do you all think?
