Latest & Greatest

Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!  Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!  Mine was filled with things I was supposed to do and rain checks to the gym.  In other words, it was a lazy weekend for me :)  I'm officially on Spring Break from school so I've been preparing myself to be mentally and physically dormant this week.  The boy and I decided not to go anywhere this year since his parents recently surprised us by letting us know they booked a trip for us in August!  We will be going to Belize, Jamaica, and Cozumel!  It will be my first time leaving the country so I. AM. SO. EXCITED!!  Meanwhile, I’m enjoying my pseudo beach (aka bed) and my daily margaritas (aka lemon water).

In recent news - I've entered into the deepest phase of shoe mania.  What was supposed to be a one-stop-shop for a new pair of work heels recently ended up being a one-too-many-stops shopping experience.  I couldn't help myself, as each of my finds was under $30!  I even told the cashier to keep the change when he rang me up.  No. No, I really didn't.  I thought about it, but I needed lunch money.  Staying true to my black palette, here's my latest & greatest: 

1. Vince Camuto Heels, $29
2. Ralph Laurel Fringe Boots, $25
3. Nike AFI Light High Top Sneakers, $20
4. Nike Air Max Sneakers, $27

Shoesday

After Monday comes Shoesday, every girl knows that! After shopping Urban Outfitters extra 50% off sale last week, I snagged these for only $35!  The shipping was quite expeditious as they showed up on my doorstep yesterday afternoon.  And who doesn't get excited when they see a box with a goddess riding a unicorn in Litas show up on their doorstep?  I'll have to wait for dryer weather before I attempt to wear these outside, but for the time being they make for great bedroom decor.  I haven't decided if I want them on my footboard where they'll be the last thing I see before I fall asleep and first thing I see when I wake up, or next to my TV so when my boyfriend and I watch movies he won't be able to tell the difference of what I'm truly staring at.

In between study sessions and wrapping Christmas gifts at home, I bring these babies downstairs and use my kitchen as a makeshift runway to get some wear time.  Being that my kitchen is only 15 feet long, I'm required to walk back and forth numerous times to get the full 'runway' experience, which leavens my roommate to scream at me to take my shoes off and to go to sleep.  God never said it would be easy, but he said he'd see me through.
