It's a great feeling when you buy something new, especially when it's shoes! Diamonds are a girl's bestfriend but so are shoes. I ordered a red pair of velvet shoes and a black pair of strappy heels with clear accents from Lola Shoetique which is an online shoe store that also has a storefront in Los Angeles. I love shopping with Lola Shoetique because they have every shoe that you could ever want and are so reasonably priced, I wish there was an actual store like them in my hometown. I cant wait to wear these shoes with the perfect outfit!
#OOTD: It's all in the footwork
Here is today's outfit of the day for work, I work in a store that requires us to mainly wear black which isn't a problem because most of the time I have on black. With our dress code mainly being black Iusually play around with cute shoes and accessories, today I chose to wear my cute cheetah print Sperry's and ruffled socks to add some flair and chicness to a plain outfit. I love this Forever 21 dress because it's loose and an easy piece to dress up or down, I got my Sperry's from Macy's a few years ago and my cute ruffled sock from Nordstrom. Happy Monday everyone, have a productive and stylish day!
Some heels are just essential
As a shoe lover there are just some heels that are just essential to your shoe closet, like a sandal heel, a pump, a pointed toe heel and a heel boot. Each of these are necessary in their own way, but they all are necessary because they are simple and are fit for multiple occasions and events. The pointed toe heel is a very classy shoe and can be paired with anything from jeans to dress pants. The sandal heel is great because it pretty much fits all seasons and all outfits, it is very dainty, simple and chic. the heel boot can be thigh high, knee high or even a bootie and can go from simple to sexy very quickly, this shoe is the perfect way to transition an outfit from day to night. Lastly is the pump which adds height and makes your legs look great with skirts and dresses. No matter the color these types of heels are necessary but always make sure you have nude and black fashionista!
DIY: I Like fur on my shoes too!
I've always wanted heels with fur on them and was very tempted to buy some or pay someone to make them for me until I realized I could make them myself. Why not do something myself for free instead of paying someone to do it for me? I had some fabric laying around in my room from a project I had for my Fashion Design Principles class and a pair of heels that I didn't like that much. To make these heels all I needed was enough fabric to put on the straps of both heels, a hot glue gun, a pair of heels of course and scissors to cut the fabric to fit the strap. It took me about 20 to 30 minutes to make these heels and they came out just the way I wanted, I'll probably make more. A lot of things come out better when you just do them yourself.
