Tuesday, were my newest addition. Grey peep-toe pumps, I got them on Ebay. They're Wild Diva brand, which is one of the brands that you can find at RAVE. These were my birthday present to myself. My red ones are very similar to these, except the red ones are rounded in the toe and not squared like these, and I think these are a slightly higher heel. I absolutely adore how the instep is open. I feel like these are very Marilyn Monroe-esque. Which I'm ALLLL about. Maybe that's what it is about peep-toe shoes that I like so much. That they're very Marilyn. The only thing I don't really care for about these is that the back part that's not attached is kind of wide and almost a little stretched out. It's a little annoying, but whatever. I still love these babies.
Yesterday, I went with these shiny gold ones. They were a gift from my sister. (If you remember Day One: Purple Suede Flats I mentioned that those were a Christmas gift from my sister. These were in the same package. She loves to keep me up on fashion and finds things for me that almost always fit in with my own personal style. And she is has some of the best Bargain Karma I've ever known! haha
I'm not really sure how I feel about these. When I wore them at my other job I had a bunch of people comment on them and say how cute they were and how much they liked them. They pinch my heels a little bit and after walking around for 8 hours they hurt my toes too, but they're really not that bad. I can guarantee that I would never have even looked twice at these if I'd seen them in the store. I would have brushed them off as "Grandma Shoes". After watching the entire first season of Glee recently, I'm realizing that they're kind of Rachel Barry shoes. Some knee-high white socks a super short plaid skirt and solid color blouse or shirt with a cardigan... yeah, they're Rachel Barry shoes all the way. I might have just inadvertently given myself an idea for a Halloween costume. But, I digress... I've only worn these shoes a couple of times. Usually paired with brown dress pants and my shiny gold/cream button-down.
Today, since it was chilly, I opted for "sneakers" and capris with a long sleeved shirt. I don't wear ballet flat sneakers like these very often, but I got these a year or two ago.
So, that's this week so far. I'll try to be better tomorrow and over the weekend about updating day-by-day.
