Cute Flats!
A really beautiful and comfortable flat is like the unicorn of shoes. It must choose you. It’s so easy to find gorgeous high heels, but gorgeous flats? Now, you know I love the lovely crystal flats that Miu Miu makes. These are not Miu Miu, but they also aren’t $650. Nay, dear blog readers. I paid $69 for these beauties. They have rows of crystals, they’re dotted with studs, and adorned with bows. Leather. Also lined in leather, which I usually don’t see at this price point. Hello dream shoe. As soon as I got my pair in “croissant pink,” I ordered a pair snakeskin.
You can find these jeweled flats here.
Stand Out
I’ve wanted a printed skirt forever but never found the right one until now. This paisley print is ornate and lush—it makes me think of vintage Versace men’s shirts or something with which Kanye West would upholster a sofa. In other words, perfect. Bought it because I want something I can mix with other prints or textures. Love it with this sequin tee.

- Blouse (plus) here. Straight size blouse here, also in this pretty collar style here.

- Heels Miu Miu
Black Friday Shopping
When asked if I was shopping Black Friday I said, “Nah, the stuff I want to buy never goes on sale.” I mean, I’m not in the market for a new tablet/toaster/mattress. HOWEVER, I am always in the market for something beautiful. Even so, after an amazing Thanksgiving dinner, I’m in no mood to drive across town in the early morning hours hoping to find the one pair of shoes that I will have to fight for alongside other frenzied women. So, it’s 2AM and I’m sitting at my computer writing, e-shopping, and nibbling on stuffing (my favorite!).
