with all of this wretched “up an inch, down an inch” i’ve been committing to of late, i plan to have my legs peacocky for spring.
i’ve decided to reward myself with a new pair of nekkid-shaded flats.
typically i eschew the flat like i scoff at beets on my plate or axe murders on parole; both give me pause.
beets because, well because they taste like earthworms, flats because there’s no heel to support my feeble, inept foot. hence the name “flats,” and paroled ax-murderers because, well, the neighborhood is already crowded as it is.
but i’m hoping all of the relevés i’ve been powering through in class will make for a happier hoof; befit for a nude flat.
so help me choose m’loves. which of these do you think is best suited for katie?
 shall i go preppy and conservative with the newberry suede ballet flat from splendid. this screams cardigan and pearls,; both of which stuff my closet. i’m not one to really offend or shock people with my fashion. i save that for the things that come out of my mouth so this non-offensive shoe beckons my people pleasing personality.Â
i’m kind of diggin’ this elizabeth and james pax peep toe flat. the only thing is, i have given up on painting my toes. like meditation and getting 8-9 hours of sleep, the pedicure {even the self-given} has seem to evaporate from my life. my toes aren’t gargoyle level, but compared to all the fancy-nancys around here, my polish-free toes look rather orphanage.
and then there are these michael kors tullah mixed leather flats. i’m such a sucker for patent leather. even in nude it still looks like it’s been dipped in lip gloss. i like a little bit of a heel to help with my les miserables arches, but there’s that stinking peep toe again.
speaking of nuding up. i did just buy these tkees flip-flops at my favorite local boutique doll. i love them so. they’re the perfect flipper for spring and summer.
so what’s your call?
which pair will best pretty up my dancing, spring feet?Â
I am really liking that peep toe nude too. I get so much use out of my high nude Jimmy Choos – that nude really does the trick. I read that Age Of Miracles (at right) really fascinated me but my husband thought it was incredibly depressing. Now its time to read something uplifting he reckons…
oh my god!?!? "age of miracles"?!?!?! i cannot put the muthaeffer down!?!??!
SO fascinating is right. i don't know if i like it, because i "do" agree with your husband…so depressing. i feel like i grew up in this little girl's neighborhood. i'm so glad i now know someone who also has read it…..i'm mid-way. i think.. i can never tell on an ipad where the hell i am in a book anymore. it's stuff like "that" {books on ipad} that will probably make our days start to stretch out…..
I love the elizabeth and james pair–you already have a bunch that look like the MK pair, just saying…:)
