I know, I know, in my protected post I talked about maybe getting another bookcase for our living room, but today, I spontaneously decided to invest the $50 in some summer apparel for me instead. Yeah, sue me :)
I couldn’t help it, I am a girl!
Here are my finds:
The flats
A girl [= esp. me] can never have enough pretty flat sandals and I just loved the simple, yet elegant look of those. So far, from my walking up and down the store, they seem VERY comfortable.
The heels
Ok, those are somewhat unusual for me, because I am not a big fan of the peep toe, but those work for me for several reasons: a) the wedge heel makes them comfortable despite the height of the heel, b) the style is kinda cute and summery and c) they seem really comfortable and I don’t think there’s much possibility for potential blisters [= big plus!]
The dress
I’ve been looking for some cute summer wrap dresses for a while and even though this one is technically not a wrap dress, the style is similar and I just love the pattern and the color.
I’ve had many people complain that I wear a lot of dark colors like brown and black (hey, I love brown and black and I think those are both colors which always look sophisticated and you can dress them up with some colorful necklaces or scarves), so I am definitely trying to branch out and put some more color in my wardrobe.
You like?
What are your latest summer finds?

Want to see a picture with you in the dress and the shoes! ;-)

All your buys are very precious and worth the expense! so, where did you get your cute summer buys? I definitely like that you’re infusing color into your wardrobe…I personally love anything bright (especially red)! Summer is the time to do it if any! My favorite summer buys so far, are some cute tanks from Ross…and 2 different pairs of espadrilles…I love em!
