must. wear. winter. shoes. pronto.

Day 26...In an effort to wear all my non-Spring shoes FAST, I donned this pair today.
I bought these with the big bow flats in New Orleans. I really like them! The problem is that they are difficult to match with, so I think I should acquire a little more brown if they stay in the closet permanently. They have 2 tones of orange and 2 tones of brown. Worn with JCrew pencil skirt and H&M multi-colored top.

stu's should stay. i'm just sayin'

Day 4....I decided to wear a skirt today. Nothing makes you feel more feminine than a skirt and heels. This project has been difficult though...to quote a contestant of Project Runway, "I don't think I knew it would take so much tediousness".
Anyways, carry on...

Here are Day 3's shoes:

Sans tights:

I bought them at Nordy's half yearly sale with my mom. She bought the same in candy apple red but I was in need of brown shoes! I'm sad to not be able to wear them again until the end of the challenge because I love them...Who doesn't love Stuart Weitzman?!

Let the games begin.

I thought in order to begin the shoe show, I should do a little research.

In the U.S. ...
Pump: a woman's shoe that has medium or high heels and no fastening

In the U.K. ...
Pump: gym shoes
Court Shoes: pumps. lightweight heeled women's dress shoes with enclosed toes

Regardless of the differences, footwear is fundamental. I tallied my shoes, even categorized them...
Wear to Work shoes: 44 (this includes flats, pumps, peeps, and wedges)
Weekend shoes: 19 (this includes sandals, evening shoes, and sneaks)
Other: 1 pair running shoes, roughly 7 pairs of flip flops, a pair of f-uggs, and 2 pairs of cowboy boots.

Now for the rules.
1. Don a different pair daily.
2. Post a picture of the shoe choice daily.
3. Relay the origin of the shoes.
4. Open up the floor for a vote.
5. Set aside the "Toss" shoes to be sold/donated to my local Buffalo Exchange

Now it's time to put my best foot forward...
Day 1...
Here is the pair I wore today, a definite non-work boot, but still a wise purchase. I bought them at Nordy's at the half-yearly sale over the summer. I love the color of the leather, the side buckle, and the slight wedge. Attention! I have found the link to purchase these shoes, should you so desire...Click here to order them!
