Earlier this week I celebrated something huge. Really, really huge. So I decided to treat myself.
These are the flats from J. Aldridge’s Sea of Shoes line for Urban Outfitters. I got ‘em on clearance! They’re still in the break-in phase, but I’m already planning to replace their shoelaces with elastic thread to make them easier to put on and take off.
I especially love how they’ve got an actual heel. I have a problem with walking all the way through my flats, scuffing the heels down to nothing [I don't drag my feet when I walk, I swear, it's just something about my posture or stride], so hopefully these will last quite a bit longer. Tonight I’m going to treat them with leather protector.
These Charles by Charles David heels were on sale at DSW- seventeen bucks, y’all. [I also found a bunch of others that I loved, but I'm exercising restraint and waiting to buy them for a month or so.]
They’ve got treads on the bottom, so I’m not going to be slipping around in them. Rejoice!
Super-comfy. I typically like wedges way better than pumps, but these are really supportive. Who’d've thought?! I’m pretty sure I need to plan a stage outfit around these colors. I have a lot of grey, but not very much of this dark cobalt blue.
I love my new shoes!
