Foot fetish

I was never really a shoes person. I'm more of a bag lady. If I had my way I'd be living in flip flops the whole time. Wait..I do live in flip flops all the time. I think I've never gone by a day without walking in those damn comfy rubber. And to think I am allergic to *ahem* certain types of rubber.

Before I start a japanese slipper revolution, I have to admit that shoes really do make or break an outfit. It's part and parcel of a whole outfit, and it could even be the main focus of one's look sometimes. Take for example a simple basic dress. It could be a formal shift, a flirty floral or even a jersey Tshirt dress. Pair it with sneakers for a sporty laid back look; or with strappy gladiator sandles for instant style points. You can pair it with a black satin peep toe too and take the outfit into a whole new level of chic-ness.

Ok I think you probably get the idea. Actually my point for this post is just to show off my new pair of gladiator inspired heels, a belated birthday present from my sis from MOD shoes.

I decided to take chances and wore this last Thursday with my short printed t-shirt dress, grey leggings and black blazer.

It's actually my pair of black mary janes worn with knee high socks which I folded over the pump to create an ankle boot lookalike.

Yes I am crazy.
