Video: Designer Shoe Sale Haul

If you watched my last video, you got to go shopping with me during the designer shoe pre-sale, so here’s the follow up video of what I bought!  I ended up buying a few pairs on a different date as well so there will be a few pairs that you haven’t seen yet, except of course if you are on my facebook you saw a sneak peek 🙂

The Haul!

What I’m Wearing – Sweater: ASOS | Scarf: gift from Happy Scarf | Bracelets: Crystal Bracelets in Pink and Diamond, and Blue Crush Ring

Oh and I forgot to take pictures of the Louboutin flats but you can see them here in a really old post and you can see a glimpse of them on me in my Washington D.C. post, I wore them all over the city for hours and they got super beat up on that trip.  Totally worth it though! 🙂

Latest Loves: Prada Bow Pumps

prada_bow_pumps3
I used to do shoe collection posts whenever I got new shoes and then I just stopped.  Don’t really know why, but thought I’d bring them back!  🙂  Got these pretty Prada pumps on sale about a month ago and they are definitely one of my favorites.  They’re super pretty on and the color is a great tone on my skin and the bows are just too darn cute.  The perfect shoe, I could say!  Except for, since they were on sale, I had to buy a size down and well, I never recommend doing that but I HAD to because I loved them so much and since they were on sale, my size was nowhere to be found.  I took them to Nordstrom to get them stretched (FYI, they don’t charge for that so if you ever need to do that for your shoes, take it to them!) and it helped but they aren’t completely comfortable yet.  It’s okay though, I love them so much that I can deal with them pinching my feet a little!

My Favorite Shoes – Christian Louboutin

It took me so long to shoot a “my favorite shoes” video because I could not for the life of me just pick out a few to talk about!  I decided that grouping them would be the best so enjoy the first of the series starting with my favorite Louboutins!

I’m wearing a J Crew top (I diy-ed the shoulder sequins) and a J Crew necklace.

Which Louboutins made the cut?  Check out the video to find out! 🙂

Shoe Closet Tour!

A video tour of my shoe closet!!  I don’t know how many times I’ve been asked to see my entire collection so I thought a closet tour would be the easiest way.  I know I told you I’d do a favorite shoes video next but that didn’t happen so that one is still on my list to do.  And I didn’t forget about the “how to take care of your designer shoes” post.  That one is coming as well and I’m planning on making a video for that one too.

Enjoy!  And uh I am slightly embarrassed by how dusty my shelves are.  I didn’t clean before I shot the video.  Oops!  BUT this one is available in HD so if you want to watch it in better quality, click on over to my youtube channel and in the little corner where it says 360, you can change it to 720HD if you want to see shoes in high def!  hahaha, kind of funny but thought I’d mention it anyway. 🙂  Oh and I didn’t show you the bottom shelf but that’s just my gym shoes which is boring so figured no one wanted to see that.

Info: The bookcase is the Billy Bookcase from Ikea with the matching glass doors.

And some spring shoes that need to get into my closet now!  I love spring shoes!

Blue Suede Mary Janes (by Miu Miu)

I know you’ve all heard me talking about all my new additions to my shoe collection and have seen a few pairs here and there but I finally did a little photo shoot with one of my new pairs.  It’s been forever since I’ve done a proper shoe collection post so I thought it was time for another!  What is it about Mary Janes that just make them adorable?  I love the shape of them and the color was the reason why I had to get them!  You don’t see navy blue suede shoes very often right?

You will see them on me in tomorrow’s outfit post but here’s a little preview!

The ones I got are sold out but these satin ones and these cutie loafer mary janes are still available!  Also loving these adorable these Miu Miu mary jane flats!

P.S. Remember my Prada bow flats that I got awhile back?  Well, they finally have them available online!  Who knows what took them so long?  Click here to get them but limited sizes available.

Lookbook: Prada booties!

My new Prada loves that you saw in my last post.  I just adore these booties!  I also bought these in purple and they’ve been siting in the box.  I can’t decide if I want to keep them but I can’t bear to return them either!  They were on sale but they were still a bit expensive so I don’t know if I need two since I also bought many other pairs of shoes.  Maybe I need to take a poll and you guys can help me decide if I should keep them.  hahaha!  I’ve so been into cozy sweaters lately, but how could you not with the crazy cold weather we’ve been having?  I haven’t been to or bought anything from Forever 21 in a really long time because I go through phases of loving it or hating it (and I was in the hating it phase) but I finally went in one day when we were in the area (there’s no F21 where I live- so I don’t go to the store very often anyway).  And I knew I didn’t want to spend a lot of time in there but the first thing I saw was this cozy sweater so I grabbed it, paid and left.  That’s the best way for me to shop in store or else if I’m in there too long my eyes start going crazy (because of the mess and the sheer amount of stuff) and my ears start hurting (because of all the “teenage girl speak”) so in and out is my game plan whenever I step foot in that store!

What I’m Wearing
Sweater: Forever 21
Top: Elizabeth and James
Pants: Madewell
Booties: Prada
Necklace: Gift from my sister
Ring: Made Her Think
Nails: Zoya Valerie and Zoya Pinta

Oh and the “M” I’m holding was an ornament/gift tag that I made for everyone in my family for Christmas!  I bought all the supplies at Jo-Ann’s and I spent 3 days glittering those dang letters!  But it was worth it, everyone loved them!  I’m silly though because I didn’t buy a “T” for myself so I don’t have one 🙁 Oh well, I don’t feel like glittering again!  And husband is glad that it’s over because our whole place was covered in glitter for a week after that project!
 

I also just bought this this Spring & Clifton cardi which is super similar but I like it a bit better because it’s not as big so it doesn’t overwhelm my shape as much. 

Elizabeth and James Summer Cohen Check Shirt – at shopbop for 70% off!

I really like the fit of Elizabeth and James button downs.  I’ve rarely found a button down that fit as well.  (you can see it better on me in this lookbook)  I also really like this plaid shirt, I love the color!  And I’m sure you all know how much I love Madewell so I’m eyeing this one that’s on sale.

I absolutely love my Madewell legging cords.  I had to buy them in black and navy blue because they are my new favorite pants EVAR.  But they are sold out online, maybe you can snag some at the store though!  Still there are a lot of cute skinny cords, like these that are on sale for $59. Or these ones are really similar and a great price as well!


I can’t find mine online so they are probably all sold out.  More reason for me to keep the purple ones too right?  I always get questions about how I score size 5 shoes, especially on sale, and I have my SA at Nordstrom to thank for that.  I’ve been buying shoes from him for a few years now and every sale season he calls me right when he gets the list of what shoes will go on sale and then holds all the 5’s for me until I come in and try them all on and let him know which ones I want.  He also calls around to find my size for shoes that I want but he doesn’t have them at his store.  In one word he is AWESOME and is a size 5 + designer shoe whore’s dream come true.  I wouldn’t have half my shoes without his help (and my husband also says that I’ve probably paid for his kid’s college tuition with all the commission he makes.  LOL!)  If you want more tips about scoring designer shoes on sale, read my tips on this post.  If you are looking for something a little less pricey, these are similar.  I like the pretty blue color too!

I get so many comments about this ring, it’s pretty funny.  It’s definitely a conversation starter!


I wore the Valerie on the ring fingers and Pinta on all the other fingers.  I reviewed both colors on this vlog.  psst… did you take advantage of the 3 free nail polishes from Zoya?  They are giving everyone free polishes for reaching over 20,000 facebook likes, isn’t that awesome?  Use code FB2011 and pick your free colors!  You just have to pay shipping and handling, not a bad deal at all!  Expires on the 7th so don’t wait too long to order!
