My love of Civil War history began in 2011 after hearing a radio advertisement for events celebrating the Sesquicentennial Commemoration of the Battle of Bull Run. The ad roused my curiosity and I began researching Civil War history. As I’ve mentioned in previous posts, the stories of North and South grip my heart and engage me to do more than just read about the Civil War, but to experience it too. (more…)
As you can imagine, one of my favorite things to do is peruse shoes online. I actually prefer to buy online because in most instances, the shoes come directly from the warehouse. I like the feeling of knowing my feet are the first to slip into the shoes. The worst feeling is getting new shoes that have been tried on and stretched. Gross. (more…)
In a June post, I spoke about being complimented on a pair of heels I was wearing while in line for Communion. What I didn’t mention was that I put these sandals in a donation bag. I decided to wear them one more time because I could not find anything else to wear. Go figure! The compliment saved these shoes and now they are being featured on the blog this week. (more…)
If you’ve been reading my posts, you know my fling with fringe started with the Report Signature – Noemie T-Strap sandals. I was so in love with those heels and then the Steve Madden Fringly happened! Love at first sight…again! The colors are so gorgeous. Blue, purple, and yellow! Not to mention the traditional colors of black, taupe, and chestnut brown. I was soooo tempted to buy it in blue, but I ALWAYS seem to buy blue. So, I went out of my comfort zone and chose the yellow which is more of a yellowy-lime in person. (more…)
Don’t you love it when you find an outfit (or a pair of shoes) you weren’t expecting to find? In fact, you weren’t even looking for it. Then, in a moment of serendipity you end up with something new to bring home.
That’s what happened to me when I found this super cute romper. Let me explain… (more…)
I adore yellow in the summertime, but it can be a hard color to wear. For me, it’s always been about finding the right shade of yellow to compliment my pale skin. Rich, vibrant colors work well on me, so when I saw the Kami wedge sandals online a few summers ago, I purchased them. I had no idea what I would wear with them (common issue with shoe addicts!), but I fell in love with the pop of patent yellow and the espadrille detail for the heel. (more…)
Yellow is quite popular this summer. The trend was seen on runways and many celebrities have made the color a staple of their summer wardrobe. Even Duchess Kate wore yellow as she presented Princess Charlotte to an adoring audience on the steps of St. Mary’s hospital. (more…)

Not too long ago, I received an email that surprised me. A nice woman from Australia connected with me using the Contact form on my website. She needed shoes for her son’s wedding and wanted to know more of my thoughts on the Enzo Angiolini Leluna sandals I featured in week two of my blog. (more…)
My love affair with fringe continues. This time, the fringe is braided, loose, and carefree. Swishing with every move, it adds a playful personality to the GUESS Carlene sandals. I also love the multi-row ankle strap. These standout details are definitely eye catching. It’s hard not to feel a “notice me” vibe when sashaying in these boho, flirty, simple, sexy heels! (more…)
