Loop-de-doop
Thursday, May 17, 2012I had pinned this image awhile back with every intention of trying out each of the 12 new (to me) ways to tie a belt. Fast forward to now, and I've yet to try a single one. I had forgotten about my pin until this morning when I was struggling with my wide brown belt. My belt was ultimately too wide and too short for intricate loops and knots. So I improvised and came up with something close to #6. Ehh... it's not the best, but it worked for my purposes.
PS - My new wedges are currently $125 with an extra 30% off and free shipping. I went up half a size due to slightly wide feet and they fit me perfectly. I wore them all day and am happy to report no blisters, no pinching; it's as if I was walking on air.

Love the drapey lavender skirt with the relaxed yellow top - such a fun way to play with proportions and of course, everything always looks fabulous on you!
ReplyDeleteA note about wide feet, they may get wider after having kids o_O I am having a horrible time finding good running shoes that aren't $100+ (I'm not THAT invested in running).
o.O indeed! I've heard (secondhand) that feet could possibly get bigger after pregnancy. That's it! I'm determined not to buy any more designer shoes until a few years down the road, haha.
DeleteHave you looked at Asics? I *think* that's the brand my running friends recommended for wider feet. I'm personally an adidas girl and I do go up half a size from my normal for their shoes.
I'm not sure if there's a store near you, but I've heard about running stores where you go in and the SAs will watch you walk/run, and based on your gait they'll recommend a certain type of shoe. It's an interesting concept but I've never tried it myself.
I'd love to hear from you. Constructive criticisms welcome!
