A Dress. A Shirtdress

Monday, April 22, 2013

After wearing pants practically all winter long, I'm embracing going bare-legged in anything feminine. A shopping spree as of late that includes an eyelet skirt, a casual lace dress, a pleated paperbag skirt, and now I can add a shirtdress to my wardrobe. Spring, I heart you.

    1. I'll be the first to admit that more disposable income = easier to buy more expensive things. I certainly wouldn't be offended if you remind me to wear inexpensive items (whether new or old) more often :)

  5. I heart spring too. I also heart those sandals that you have been wearing...I have been contemplating a LOFT purchase since seeing your sale alert but annoyance at making returns (inevitable) is holding me back from checking out. sigh.

    1. Because I'm nice, I'll give you advanced warning that these sandals will show up often in the next few posts. So don't check my blog if you can't stay away!

      Really though, these sandals are so versatile, and a great dupe for less for the Sam Edelman Gigi. I also find them to fit our medium-to-wide feet better than the Gigi's. Plus, I've figured out that if I keep the buckle in the last hole (loosest), I can push the strap down to take off the shoes w/o undoing the buckle!! Similar for putting the shoes on. And I don't experience any issues with the strap sliding off when walking. Have I sold you on them yet? :)
