On this day two hundred forty five years ago, America’s founders declared independence from England. Today, Independence Day is a grand celebration and what better way to celebrate the 4th than going to a hometown carnival! (more…)
My search for white boots had been ongoing over the last few years. I was looking for a slouchy pair with stiletto heels that were at least 3 inches. Unfortunately, most I came across were block heels. They were nice, but did not fit my criteria. Then, one mundane Monday I came across these beauties and the day quickly turned exciting. Vince Camuto read my mind when they created the Abrianna Slouch booties! With a shoe sale going on at Macy’s, I quickly selected my size and added this pair to my cart. (more…)
On our departure morning, my Forever BFF, Tammy, had an early morning flight. I woke up to bid her farewell and stayed up to take one last walk around the city. My normally directionally challenged self was buoyed by the aid of Google Maps. 😉 (more…)
Ever since I commenced this blog in 2015, I feel like I am constantly chasing time. Last month, my intent was to post a main blog post with part 2 of my New Orleans adventure with my Forever BFF, Tammy, but as always, time was fleeting. Now, it’s October and I have “Ghostober” posts perfect for the month of Halloween. These posts can’t be delayed and as such, my main blog post shall linger into November. Though, I’m sure that’s ok, right? As long as I continue to post new content? 😉 (more…)
It is that time of year again when summer’s farewell lingers like the final notes of a beautifully composed piece of music. The ambience is sublime and filled with mirthful memories of time well spent. Holding on for one more hurrah and always one more until there is no more. Parting is such sweet sorrow tempered by fall’s inevitable tomorrow. Enticed, fall captivates with colorful landscapes and dancing leaves that fall from above. The aroma of burning wood on crisp evenings signals the start of sweater weather, boots, and everything else we love about this new season. For me, it is all of the above and of course, the annual Lizzy’s Latest Top 5 Fall Favorites! (more…)
Fall has arrived! I’m so excited for this time of year! It is my favorite season. Although, Summer’s embrace still lingers, hints of Fall are making their debut gradually. I can feel it in the cooler mornings and nights. I can see it at the stores as they display Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas (already!) paraphernalia. And just last night as I drove home from work, I could smell the sweet scent of burning firewood in the air. This gradual changing of the seasons will soon gift us with the splendor of Fall foliage. I love watching the leaves paint the landscape in brilliant hues. It is something I look forward to every year. (more…)
Now that my shoe blog is monthly, the time in between posts sometimes feels like too long of an absence from all of you, at least to me. As such, I’ve launched a new segment on my blog called, “Shoespiration.” 🙂 Its intent is to fill the fashion void that lingers between my main blog posts. It’s a mini blog post; a sort of fashion fix if you will to get us through the month. 😉 (more…)
Lately, it seems every weekend I plan to take pictures, the weather turns cold. The weekend of this photo shoot was no exception. The temperature stayed in the 30s and the wind was gusty for the majority of the shoot. However, with St. Patrick’s Day in March, I was determined to share this cute asymmetrical green skirt. 🙂 (more…)
A few weeks ago, Feedspot, an online RSS feed reader, compiled a list of the Top 75 Shoe Websites and Blogs on the Web based on their index using search and social metrics. To my surprise and delight, Lizzy’s Latest made this list! My little blog came in at number 51 with plenty of room to grow! 🙂 (more…)
Due to the rain, we remained local for this photo shoot. Dad and I drove to the Thomas Stone House in Port Tobacco, MD. If you’re not familiar with the name, you’re not alone. When I first moved to Southern Maryland, I had no idea who Thomas Stone was either. However, I quickly learned that Thomas Stone was one of the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence. That is quite an accomplishment for a humble planter and lawyer. (more…)
