I actually wasn't going to post these photos. I thought to myself "it's just a pair of boyfriend jeans and some heels, what's so special about that?" Life isn't always maxi skirts and curled hair, sometimes it's a Thursday night after a long day of work and you're running out the door in a pair of boyfriend jeans and unwashed hair trying to make your dinner reservation on time. Thank the heavens for shoes, am I right? Just getting into the shoe game, I'm amazed how a great pair of heels can elevate even the simplest outfit. These pointy-toe stilettos from Club Monaco are a great addition to my humble-but-growing shoe collection, and really pull together a simple outfit of destroyed boyfriend jeans and a white tank. A great pair of shoes is everything - they may not be able to wash my hair for me, but they make me feel good and that's all that matters.

So among many other things, I am also a shoe Noob. I had always fancied myself more of a bag person, but lately you can't tear me away from the shoe stores. Taking a page out of Ms. Carrie Bradshaw's book, I'm trying to pair fancier heels with any old outfit and love the effortless look it produces.
What do you guys think - are you into the simpler looks? Where do you stand on your love for shoes? Are there any stand-out shoe brands that you think I should check out? Let me know!

Thank you so much, although I'm sure that they look awesome on you as well!
DeleteAh boyfriend jeans! You know they are my fave. I am usually all about comfort over glamour, but I think adding heels instantly glams up the outfit.

DeleteGreat boyfriend jeans! Very nice look! So clean!
ReplyDeleteOther than lipstick, shoes are my favourite accessory! They can instantly change an outfit, and I love pairing some killer heels with a casual outfit to change the look instantly. I'm totally guilty of buying the same shoe in multiple colours too :P
