Top 10 | Spring Mules

February 24, 2015 by jessica 8 Comments

Top-10-Spring-Mules-2015

ONE | TWO | THREE | FOUR | FIVE | SIX | SEVEN | EIGHT | NINE | TEN

[spacer]

This ’90s throwback made an appearance last year and it’s back again for 2015. I honestly didn’t think I’d warm up to this trend, until I saw this pin. Pairing an easy-to-slip-into mule with her breezy dress just screams summer chic. Cone heels still look outdated (sorry, Kate Spade), but a chunky heel or wedge with unexpected details (like braided faux leather) feels fresh. My favorite is this pair from Tory Burch with the geometric design on the wedge. Not really into heels? How cute would these slides look with a pair of slim pants?

Style Steal

StyleStealKateSpadeToucanSandals3

I get it, toucan sandals aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, but I loved these when Kate Spade debuted them last summer. I stalked the heck out of them, hoping they’d hit the sale section before warm weather was just a distant memory. No luck. They weren’t discounted until fall, when sandals weren’t exactly the most practical purchase. Even then, the price wasn’t that great and I wrote them off as yet another sartorial white whale. I certainly didn’t expect to find them on Amazon this week for just $70. Most of the sizes are still available in limited stock, aside from the size 7, which Dave purchased for me as my Valentine’s gift. (We’re not much for surprises. And, before you think I’m a bad girlfriend, I treated him to a sour and barrel-aged beer tasting on Sunday.)

Wardrobe Welcome

So I may have gone to a beer fest last weekend and I may have had a little too much to drink and I may have ordered a pair of shoes. Cobalt snakeskin flats, in fact.

They also come in black or natural, if you’re into that sort of thing.

Shopping Guide | Black Ankle Boots

September 22, 2014 by jessica 11 Comments



 

[dropcap custom_class=”normal”]F[/dropcap]inding the perfect pair of black ankle boots for fall is taking a ridiculously long time and my wish list isn’t even that lofty. I just want a black pair with a substantial heel for navigating slippery sidewalks that doesn’t look dowdy. I’d also like to stay away from suede so I don’t have to contend with as many salt stains. And, I hate silver hardware with black leather. It looks a little too biker babe for me. I spent the morning scrolling through hundreds of options to come up with nine that meet my expectations.

Pictured top to bottom, left to right.

Under $100: Express, $70 | H&M, $50 | ASOS, $57

Under $250: Elliott Lucca, $179 | Topshop, $150 | Michael by Michael Kors, $245

Under $500: Tory Burch, $385 | Kate Spade, $425 | Cole Haan, $328

Loving Lately

November 6, 2013 by jessica Leave a Comment

Lately, I’m loving flats for their casual elegance, ladylike charm and uncompromising practicality. These four have been in heavy rotation over the last few weeks. Clockwise from top: Forever21, Kate Spade (similar), Ferragamo, Joie

In other news, Nordstrom’s Half-Yearly Sale started. I’ve got my eye on four pairs of flats (here, here, here and here) and one pair of gorgeous heels.

I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog of travel photos before we book our next trip. First up, photos of the gothic York Minster. I’m not religious in the slightest but I can’t resist stunning architecture and the opportunity to climb hundreds of cathedral stairs for a city view. This one only had a single rest stop about halfway up the flight of 275 steps for a closeup view of the flying buttresses — and a waiver you had to sign before your ascent to promise you’re healthy enough to make it.

Visiting York earlier this month put us in the Hal Visiting York earlier this month put us in the Halloween spirit. While it claims to be the most haunted place in Europe and is dubbed the city of a thousand ghosts, we only encountered the wire-mesh sculptures of Ghosts in the Gardens (@the_york_bid) and the family of souvenir ghosts I brought home from @yorkghostmerchants.
