Impulse Buy

I was so excited about my new camouflage kitten heels (a score from Saturday's shopping trip to Nordstrom Rack) that I just had to wear them to church on Sunday! While they were an impulse buy, I think it was a good choice because I already had an outfit planned to wear them with. They pair perfectly with my new fringe cardigan. And yes, I am wearing it two days in a row on the blog. Sorry, not sorry... It's just so soft!

Shoe Love is True Love

The age old question... Do I really need to spend the money on these shoes? I struggle with this all the time--I love shoes! Today I'm sharing some recent obsessions, some shoe "holes" I'm wanting to fill in my closet.

* I'd love some fun coral flats to add some spring into my every-day shoe collection

* For my study abroad this summer, I'm in search of some cute by comfy casual shoes to walk around in on days I don't want to wear sandals. I'm leaning towards something in the tan range, because my color palette is going to be black/tan/navy/red/cobalt/grey/white. Anyone who has traveled abroad have any tips here?! I'll be in Italy and then Scotland and France for sure, who knows where else!

* I've had my eye on black booties for awhile, and I think I've finally settled on a pair!

* While I don't need any more heels or booties, I really want something new and springy in this area.

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8

Anyone want to give me shoe money? No? Darn. I guess I'll have to figure something else out... lol :)

Happy Monday!

Inspired Style: Sweet Florals

Photo Inspiration

Dress / Earrings & Bracelet / Heels / Bag

Inspired Style: This series focuses on outfits inspired by the designed world. Whether it's an interior, an exterior, art, or a color scheme, I am easily inspired to turn beautiful things or ideas into beautiful outfits. 

I was drawn to the beautiful simplicity of the plates in this inspiration image, and inspired by the rich yet sweet & simple colors in them. Perfect for a Valentines Date Night, the outfit created in the style of these plates maintains that sweet simplicity. The color palette is transformed in the dress, where beautiful blooms add a hint of the coming spring to a long-sleeved dress. An un-fussy bag plays up on the corals in the dress. Finally, shoes and jewelry act as the gold rim of the plates, rounding out the look. Add a jacket and nude tights if the climate requires it, and you are set for a fun date night come February 14th!

Do you know what you're wearing on Valentines Day? What would be your dream outfit?
