i have been eyeing nude colored heels for a while and desperately wanting a pair
everytime i see them i just dream...
for those of you who don't know me personally: i am very frugal and thrifty. the money i don't use to pay for school i save to pay to get me out of this city some day. if i cannot truly justify a purchse it does not happen. and "i want them" is not justification. BUT when theres a good sale i strike like a cobra!
so last night my aunt asked me to take her shopping. kmart had a bogo sale but didn't have the shoes in my size... i was sad =( we then stopped off at payless where i found the nude heels i want, in my size, on sale, and bogo
yahoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
so needless to say they are my new prized possession
i feel so empowered in them! i ran straight to my closet to find the perfect outfit to debut them in...
suddenly nothing felt right... i know what your thinking... im silly to think such neutral shoes didn't fit an outfit
just nothing felt right for the first time i wear them.
i then moved to my fabric stash trying to figure what i would do for my heels... i came across the left over scrap of fabric from the vintage style aiplane print i used to make my nephew his shorts. i knew this would be perfect!
1 hr later i had an awesome skirt and perfect outfit for the morning
i did get plenty of compliments on the way this all came together
i am more than pleased myself <3
what do you think of my last minute outfit?
Nude heels are definitely a good investment. They can (theoretically) match anything, and they also give the illusion of longer legs!
ReplyDeleteI love the airplane print of the skirt. You must have quite the skirt collection, at the rate you're stitching them up :)
thanks love <3
ReplyDeletei can definitely use longer legs =P
my closet is suddenly busting at the seams... i no longer like to wear store bought clothes... may have to do a goodwill run soon
