Haven't you missed my ridiculously lame blog titles?
Image heaviness starts now...

So, guess what?! I finally found the closest I'll get to creepers and/or the Prada flatforms from a million seasons ago... I'm in love, to say the least. I'm not sure if these are really my style, but I don't really know what my style is anymore. It changes on the weekly, sometimes daily... So, regardless of that they're patent leather (win), and have the espadrille style embroidery (win), and some striping for sportiness... which I dig, too. AND they are comfortable enough for me to wear for an 8 hour work day and I'm still over 6 feet tall in them. Ha! 
I guess this outfit is ironic seeing as how I'm wearing this Chanel style vintage blouse (which I have gotten countless compliments on and it only cost me less than $1!) and this hippie-ish painted floral backpack that I've been wearing as my purse for the last month, and then my most comfortable if not ill-flattering stretchy cigarette pants from my work. Needless to say, I continue to be a walking contradiction of styles and decades...

ANYWAYS. 
I highly recommend you check out romwe.com. They have really cute and fashionable finds for fairly cheap/reasonable prices. As far as these shoes are concerned, I'm a happy customer! They are well made, and are super comfortable too!


I'm off to watch Parks & Recreation. oooOooOOOooo. 

I'll catch y'all later to go back in time to the rest of the Palm Springs trip pictures!

XO.
