The Bootie Diaries

1//2//3//4//5//6//7//8//9

I've been on a mad hunt for new black booties and while I'm still in need of a heeled pair (hi, Stuart), I ended up nabbing these Flat Fellas (under $100), last week.  Figured I'd share the ones I was deciding between as many of them are under a hundo (Buckles, Pointed).  Feel free to sift through some of my faves below!  Alright gang, heading out into this heinous weather to shoot a few pics--fingers crossed Mother Nature doesn't act all ornery!  Make it a great one!

Let's kick off the week with a little Giveaway, yes?  Currently, I'm just loving a stark black & white contrast and Piperlime delivers just that....good grief I'm loving all of these pieces!  For all who participate, you will be entered to win a $100 GiftCard to Piperlime.  Granted, you won't be able to score that Gorgeous Loeffler Randall crossbody free of charge, but at least we can put a nice dent in the cost!!  Also, if you want to take a gander over to Gap and score some goodies there, Piperlime GiftCards can be used at any of the Gap family stores!  Using Rafflecopter again this go around....I will annouce the winner on Wednesday THURSDAY*!  Shop my picks below--Y'all make it a good one!

Giveaway: So Clutch

dress (HM--see similar below), booties (Sam Edelman), clutch (Zara), bracelets (BaubleBar), spikes (Asos)


Hang with me today, gang...lots to cover--especially a GIVEAWAY!  Leather is ALL the RAGE this season..all of it...all over the stinkin' place!  I adore it for a plethora of reasons (see some fantastic pieces below).  It takes the simplest of cuts and adds such a fun dimension.  It also shapes the bod nicely and conceals any "areas."  It is terribly classic and will never go out of style--I still own a camel leather skirt that I had in college!  Let's take this frock for instance--first off, I must disclose, it's faux--but no one's the wiser.  It is just a simple sheath, but I can't help but feel a little extra special when wearing it, especially paired with a fun pop of a clutch.  Speaking of Clutches, how about we do a GIVEAWAY!!!!
I am seriously in LOVE with this House of Harlow clutch.  Talk about a fun little statement.  Orange truly is such an amazing splash, and can be a nice neutral as well.  Top it with a little croc, and voila, statement piece!
