Shoe Wishlist

When I have a little bit of down time I find myself browsing the internet; drooling over items that are out of my price range and items that are fairly affordable. What can I say? A girl can dream, can't she? Here are a few pair of shoes that made my heart skip a beat.

Vintage Renay

My mother, Veronica Renay, in the 80's---she was so stylish :) The crazy thing is, I see people rocking this look now. I guess some fashion trends never go out of style.

Walk a Mile in Her Shoes

On the weekend of April 14th, 2012 friends and I attended the annual march against sexual assault and gender violence, "Walk a Mile in Her Shoes." As soon as we arrived at the event we were greeted by law enforcement officers who rocked sky high heels. I was a little shocked at how amazing (and comfortable) these men looked in some of the "not so average" women's shoes. (You know what they say, "go hard or go home!") :P  I was very happy to see so much support for an important cause. Here are some of the photos from the event. Enjoy!

Earth tones

Dress: H&M, Belt: Target, Shoes: Zara, Purse: Coach, Watch: Michael Kors

It was cloudy most of the day, so I decided to take a little break from bright colors. I purchased this light brown dress at the H&M "Black Friday Sale" in November, but I never wore it until today. I think I only paid $15 for it...

Speaking of H&M, have you checked out the Conscious Collection? The clothes are so stylish, and they are made (at least in part) from organic or recycled materials. I haven't seen the collection in person yet, but I plan to head to the store soon.

Enjoy the rest of your week!

Qupid and Bamboo

I picked up these sweet sandals over the weekend by Qupid and Bamboo. The tribal patterns go well with maxi dresses, rompers or shorts. I'm going for a carefree kind of vibe this spring and summer ;) I purchased these shoes from Bare Feet Shoes (they are not displayed on the site), but the following sites offer the same styles.

Tangerine

Dress: Gap, Shoes: Gianni Bini, Bracelets/Necklace: Forever 21, Ring: Banana Republic

Tangerine is a popular color this season, and I've jumped on the bandwagon. I bought this dress last week, and I couldn't wait to wear it. It's super comfortable, and the busy pattern allows for minimal accessorizing. It's perfect for running errands in this gorgeous weather.

Enjoy the rest of your week :)

Cherry Red and Sea Foam Green

I purchased this cherry red lipstick from N.Y.X and sea foam green nail polish from Hot Topic a while ago. These are two more colors that are perfect for the spring :) The polish is pretty amazing; all you need is one coat because it's really opaque. I hate when I have to keep applying coats, know what I mean?

Hot Topic has more polish options in store.

Beach Bum

Dress: BCBGeneration (old)

I absolutley love the beach, and I spend a lot of time there during the warm months. I woke up bright and early and headed to the pier to soak in the breeze and salty air. The water is still pretty cold, but I walked along the shore and let my feet feel the chill of the waves anyway.

The wind was blowing my hair and dress dress all over the place! Most of my day was spent keeping my shorts out of other beach-goers' view. The halter top is actually a part of the dress itself. It's one of those tight/baggy combos...

Wild Orange

So, I purchased a fabulous orange lipstick a while ago by Kat Von D and I must say that this is the perfect color for warm weather. I've seen people with skin complexions ranging from fair to dark who look great in this shade. :) On a different note, I have natural curly hair and every time I blow dry it I feel like Mufasa from The Lion King (hence the title of this post). :P Have a good week!
