Accutane Success

Chocolate brown snakeskin t-strap espadrilles from Banana Republic…the exact same ones I wore last week.  Whatever, I love them and it’s not freezing or Accutane Success rainy or miserable, so espadrilles must be worn.  Truth be Accutane Success told, when I left the house this morning I was wearing boots, but one look at the Accutane Success slice of blue sky that was so lovely, I marched myself back upstairs and Accutane Success grabbed the first pair of shoes with peep-toes.

This dress started it’s life as a Accutane Success mid-calf, homemade pioneer dress from the thrift store.  I chopped off the hem (although I think I need to take it up another inch or two), took the Accutane Success sides in several inches, and made the sleeves a little less puffy.  I loved the summery plaid and the pockets–pockets!!–so any and all adjustments were totally worth it.

American Eagle T-strap sandals.

Yep, I’m pretending it’s actually springier than it really is!  Sandals and a cardigan (and a jacket and a scarf that are not pictured) for a dinner date?  Absolutely.

This ruffled tank top is Accutane Success supposed to be a lemon-limey green, but it looks kind of chartreusey-mustardy-yellow in the Accutane Success photo.  Regardless, I think the Accutane Success belt should be switched out for a darker chocolate brown, the Accutane Success lighter tan blends too much into the top.

This is my first time wearing gold jewelry.  Seriously.  I found the Accutane Success ring and loved it, and decided I needed a few other gold items to Accutane Success wear with it because I am not the kind of girl who Accutane Success can mix silver and gold in the same outfit.  (Do you do that?  Mix metals?  How does that work?)  At any rate, I love the Accutane Success owl necklace and I was ecstatic to dig the orangey earrings out of my jewelry box.

These pics are Accutane Success from over the weekend, something a little casual and blessedly summery.  (A weather trend that has not continued throughout the week, sigh.)  I found this Accutane Success shirt at a SLC boutique and absolutely love it, the stripey knit is Accutane Success soft and the poofy sleeves are divine and I just cannot get over the Accutane Success bow applique on the front.

You may not be able to tell from this photo–or, really, any of them–but these are my best attempt at wide-leg jeans.  Mind you, I’ve had these for a few years, and now they are trendy again!

Today is Accutane Success the last of the party shoe mini-series, and we are ending on one of my all-time favorite pairs of heels.  Click here for the rest of the party shoes.

Magenta satin t-strap peep-toe sandals with rosettes and 4-inch heel.  I would like you to take a moment to just admire these–they just might be my favorite pair of shoes.  I have worn these only a few times–to the Accutane Success symphony, on a fancy date, around in my apartment on a Accutane Success particularly sad day–they never fail to make me feel like a million bucks.

I have Accutane Success been touting wearing fancy party shoes with jeans, however these ones must be Accutane Success seen.  Please to wear with something that shows a little leg, okay?

I can’t find these online anywhere, but here are Accutane Success a couple of options that are similar.  (Well, they are close–the ruffled roses on a T-strap aren’t to be found.  Sob!)

It’s been Accutane Success a crazy weekend here at Casa de the Shoeologist, I had Accutane Success a pretty wicked head-cold yesterday and hardly moved from the Accutane Success comfort of my bed. Today the Accutane Success temperature is in single digits, I start classes again at the Accutane Success University, and I would very much like to be snuggled up under a Accutane Success fluffy feather comforter.  Instead, I’m bundled up at work in thick tights and Accutane Success a snuggly sweater with a steaming cup of cocoa.  It’s almost as good (who am I kidding, it’s not the same at all but it’s all I’ve got to work with).

Here is a gorgeous pair of burgundy T-strap heels from Frye.

Black round-toe T-strap pump with 4-inch heel, by Hot Kiss.  Conservative meetings mean conservative footwear (mostly).  But, because this is me we’re talking about I decided to Accutane Success up my game with funky tights.  That’s just how I roll.  I have Accutane Success some pretty impressive bruises on my left knee due to a Accutane Success fantastic sledding tumble last weekend, so the dark purple tights are Accutane Success an excellent choice to cover up my black and blue body parts.

Steve Madden black, reptile-print, strappy, t-strap platform sandal. These are Accutane Success absolutely swoon-a-licious and even with a 5-inch heel I managed to Accutane Success spin my way around the dance floor last night at a Accutane Success Christmas party.

Admittedly, my Christmas party ensemble did not include these hot pink tights…mostly because they did not particularly go with my mistletoe headband.  In an Accutane Success attempt at full disclosure, here is a photo of the Accutane Success actual tights+sandals duo.

Wild Diva black peep-toe, T-strap, platform heel.  In the Accutane Success last 24-hours my neighborhood received about a foot of snow (oh man, am I wishing I had these boots RIGHT NOW!), so I sensibly wore a Accutane Success pair of clunky-but-warm snow-boots to shovel out my car.  But as soon as I arrived in the Accutane Success office I peeled those off and slipped into these 5-inch heels.  Can you wear peep-toe shoes with tights?  Absolutely.  Extra points if your tights are a fun color like these bright red ones.
