Shoe of the Day OR Shoes of the Day?

As most of you know,  I am a shoe girl! I love shoes. So when a sale comes along that is buy one pair of shoes and get a second for free, I cannot help myself! ShoeDazzle has buy one shoe at $39.95 and get the second for free. I am a huge fan of ShoeDazzle so no one had to twist my arm to shop! Here is what came in the mail today!

I wanted to pick shoes that are not only stylish, but shoes that were versatile. I wanted to be able to wear any of these shoes into the office and then out for happy with the girls or out to dinner with my boyfriend. I am really into colorful shoes right now so I thought these were the perfect picks for me!

I already have my outfit planned for tomorrow! :)

What to Wear? Saturday Night Out

Saturday was the first time since I moved that I have gone out. So to celebrate the occasion, I wanted to get a new and fun outfit. Below is not the exact selections I made, but you can get an idea. I am absolutely loving colored jeans right now and teal jeans in particular. I really had a fabulous time at Forever 21. I got teal jeans, black top, and hot pink pumps there. The hot pink bubble necklace and black and gold bracelet I got from New York & Co on super sale. The white watch is Guess that I got that as a Christmas present. The earrings and saddle bag were from H&M last year. All together you get my Saturday Night Out!

What to Wear? Beach Essentials

It was a gorgeous and hot weekend here in the Northeast and that means beach weather! Going to the beach is one of my favorite summer activities and here are some of my essentials for making beach going a success.

First and foremost a cute swim suit is a must. I am a huge fan of the bandeau top because you don't get tan lines like the triangle or halter tops. Of course you need a fabulous cover-up or sun dress to wear on top of your swin suit and some flip flops to go with it. You also need something fashionable to protect your eyes from the sun and that means a cute pair of sun glasses and a floppy hat. Now that you have your outfit figured out, you need to fill your beach bag with some must haves. Obviously you need sun screen to protect your skin.  Premature  skin aging is not cute! I also bring leave in conditioner and a brush because my hair can really dry out in the sun. Last but not least, a best seller and iced coffee can make the day even more fabulous.

Shoe of the Day: Colorful Pumps

 
Happy Friday, bloggers!

I have to say that I have a lot of shoes. If I were to take my own inventory, I would say that I have those shoes that go well with almost anything and then I have shoes that were perfect for that one occasion or outfit and then I really have not worn since. Obviously, it is important to stretch your dollar and make your purchases go further so now I have been getting in the habit of buying shoes that I know will go well with multiple outfits. That is what inspired today's Shoe of the Day. When colorful heals started to become trendy, I was pretty skeptical about how often I could wear a pair of bright pink or yellow heals. Until now, I really stayed away from shoes with a lot of color just because I did not know how often I would wear them. But after I have taken a good look at my closet, I think color was just what I needed.

As you can see, these turquoise pumps go very well with 3 completely different outfits

Shoe of the Day: When it Rains, It Pours!

Today was a stormy afternoon for the northeast! After a very hot week, I think that will be behind us for a little while after today's storms that rolled through. I work on the 15th floor of the Prudential building in downtown Hartford and at one point you could not see of the other buildings, streets, or highway because it was raining so hard.

The shoe of the day was inspired by the rainy weather. What to wear when you want to stay dry but stylish? Every girl should have a fashionable pair of rain boats in their closet for that rainy day.

Here is my pick
Marc by Marc Jacobs Printed Rainboot $79.94

Share your favorite rain boots!

Shoe of the Day: Beach Sandal

This weekend has been gorgeous so far! The weather screams beach day. Today's shoe of the day is to ensure you enjoy the sun in style. Every girl needs a stylish and comfortable flip flop to go to the beach with. A shoe that won't get ruined if it gets sandy or wet and a shoe that can be comfortable for long periods of time. My go-to flip flop is from Eliza B. Eliza B is a household name in small beach stores and you can also design your own on the internet. They are a little pricey, but they will last you a long time.

My personal favorite in the cork platform heel. There are many fabrics to choose from that go great with the cork. The Cork Platform is $80.00. 

What are your favorite beach shoes?

Shoe of the Day: Office Glam

shoToday's Shoe of the Day was inspired by my co-worker Elaine Carpino. As recruiters, we need to wear suits everyday for our interviews, client visits, and other functions. When people think of shoes to wear with suits, everyone's minds goes toward a brown or black pump. Although this is a very classic look, it can become mundane and frankly boring to have the same matching color pallete. Elaine is wearing bright yellow platform sandals with her black 3 piece suit and this reminds me that a pop of color can take your outfit from run of the mill to a conversation starter. Ladies, don't blend in but make a statement in the office!

My pick for office glam is Aldo - GITTERE REG $120.00 On Sale $59.98

This shoe would also be great for a night out on the town or a formal event!
