Lizzy’s Latest – Marc Fisher Tailynn Ankle Booties

WED 1 IMG_8018 Final

I purchased these booties during the height of my enthusiasm for burgundy/wine colored heels.  I knew they would look perfect with this plaid skirt I paired them with.  I was going for a school-girl vibe with this photo shoot.  I even brought along some graduate school books that matched my outfit.  Thank you, Managerial Economics.  😉

The boots are super comfortable with a nice footbed and a heel height of approximately 3 inches.  I had to walk through some gravel as we navigated our way through an elementary school and a high school.  I swung on swings at the elementary school and even attempted to climb on the monkey bars. The kid in me was smiling!  

The boot is an almond toe with a side zip closure.  It has a suede upper and comes in black, dark blue, and dark red (my purchase).  I really love the side buckle because it adds a charming detail to the booties.  These boots are still available at Macy’s in all the colors I mention above, at least at the time of this post.  A quick internet search for “Marc Fisher Tailynn booties” will bring up other options as well.     

I highly recommend adding these booties to your Fall collection.  I’ve gotten several compliments from co-workers, friends, and even strangers.  I love the skinny heels and the wine color is so sexy and in the moment!  Pair them with mini-skirts, leggings, and jeans.  They will definitely amp up your look and get you noticed.    

Style with a smile!

September through December is my favorite time of year.  The oppressive heat of Summer dissipates into the more comfortable temperatures of Fall.  Leaves begin to change colors putting on a spectacular show before dancing their final act through the air in a random spiral to the ground.  Halloween comes and goes and before I know it, Thanksgiving and Christmas are around the corner.

For this heel/outfit combo, I can’t remember what came first:  the heels or the dress.  Whatever the sequence, I remember my satisfaction when I wore the look to a summer concert, of the boy-band variety, of course.  😉  This time around, it was summer fun at Balboa Park in San Diego, CA.     (more…)

The color pink always brings me back to my childhood.  Although I was a tomboy, I did have my girly side.  Still do.  So it is no surprise, being the nostalgic girl that I am, pink is still one of my favorite colors.

I am still very close to my childhood friends.  In fact, whenever I go back to San Diego, we make it a point to have an elementary school reunion to celebrate our enduring friendship.  (more…)

What is Instagram etiquette?  Whenever I get a new follower, I often wonder if I’m supposed to follow back even if the follower’s “brand” is completely different from my own.  Initially, I followed followers back out of courtesy.  Then, this started happening.  With some followers, soon after I started following back, the follower would un-follow me.  Huh?!  (more…)

I am old school when it comes to technology.  I had a Blackberry until it died and I was “forced” to upgrade.  I have a Samsung Galaxy now and I love it.  Yet, I still hold on to antiquated habits such as owning a tube TV (“vintage,”right?), mailing bills, and doing my banking at the bank.  Yes, I still balance my checkbook too!

Shoes with a dash of flair usually catch my eye.  What caught my eye on these chic, black stilettos were the tassels, of course!  Tassels continue to be a popular trend.  Merge tassels with a gladiator style sandal (also in vogue) and you get the Enzo Angiolini Leluna sandals. (more…)
