Draped in Miltenberg

Tuesday, August 12, 2014

Tank: Coldwater Creek (gift from mom) / Jeans: LOFT 
Sandals: Gabor / Jewelry: Premier Designs

These pictures were taken in the German village of Miltenberg. Both of these pieces, the top and the jeans, were go-to's during my trip. The tank is lightweight and feels casual, but the fun cobalt blue print and draping make it dressy. Gray jeans are becoming my staple now I think--they work for all seasons and  are a great neutral to let other aspects of an outfit shine. I finished off the look with silver accessories, and added my new favorite sandals. 
As you've heard if you've read some of my other posts about Europe, I was forced (I know, so horrible) to go shoe shopping because I developed Achilles Tendonitis in my heel and needed some sandals that didn't have a back on them. Enter these beauties from Gabor, a UK based shoe brand that I was happy to find out ships internationally! I wore them for the rest of the trip, because I love them so much. (Okay, I also had to if I didn't want to be in pain on all our walking tours!) I'm considering investing in another pair for my study abroad trip next summer to Florence, in anticipation that I might have a similar problem with my heel. 

Miltenberg was a fun city, but we only had half a day there before we set sail to Rudeshime. The highlight of the small city is the Marketplatz, a downtown area featuring half-timbered houses, a fountain, and a nearby church, some of which date back to the 14th century! It wasn't my favorite stop in Germany, but it was still unique and a nice place to visit. 

Have a happy Tuesday!
