The tan/ cognac Wedge!

In a prior post I mentioned that I was going to limit my shoe purchases until after I move to a white wedge, a black wedge, and a tan or cognac wedge.

Well I have my black wedge picked out. The Dellarose by Aldo.  It's only $70 so I don't really feel terribly guilty about this shoe. (One down--three to go)


So today I was browsing and thinking about shoes when I came across these:


They're from Urban Original which is a really cool site with very inexpensive shoes and amazing customer service. 


I was originally considering the Caudle as my cognac wedge but came across these and I think I almost like them more.  The $60+ price difference influenced me a little bit as well.  Here they are side by side:


I feel like the pair that I settled on may be more versatile because of the lower cut of it.  The Aldo pair seem a little bit more hardcore.

But yea! So I'm making progress. I accidentally slipped and purchased a pair of flats almost like the wedge but ya know, sometimes you don't feel like wearin a heel or wedge!

OOTD- Outfit of the Day 2/28/2010

My final Out of the Day for February! I can't believe how quickly this month has gone by...maybe due partially to the snow and all of the snow days we've had here...but March will really be here tomorrow.

Here is my outfit. It's another work outfit.  I'm just so excited to have a job that I can wear most of my clothes to.






Blouse- New York & Co.
Skirt- Express
Necklace- Wet Seal
Shoes- Macy's, Jessica Simpson Parigi

OOTD- Outfit of the Day 2/23/2010 (and FIRST day of new job!)

 I started my new job at Trade Secret today.  I think I'm really going to like it.  It seems to be more along my line of interest than my previous job.  I'm not going to get a lot of hours but honestly I think I need to concentrate more on school and this will allow me to do so.  I also get to dress up and put clothes on unlike my previous job.  Maybe now more clothes will actually get worn. 

I'm going to try to become more creative with my outfits.  This one I wore today is pretty boring.  It's actually a little bit frumpy but I didn't want to wear something too intense for the first day but we're allowed to wear skirts that aren't too short and open toed shoes so Spring should be fun.


So here is my outfit of the day. I think I was inspired by the Parliament judges and other men from back in the 1700s.  Or Prince. 

(I've realized that the lighting in my living room is the best in my house so pardon me until I find better.  Luckily I have a wall mirror that I haven't attached yet lol.  I just hope nobody catches me or they'll surely think I'm crazy.)

OUTFIT OF THE DAY:
It's pretty simple. I wore a white ruffled shirt from Miley Cirus' (and you can tell I'm not a fan. Is that how you spell her last name??) Walmart line.  It was on sale for $3!!! Bonus!! Check your local store out and see if they still have any in stock.  They also had a zebra type printed one and plain black on sale at mine.
 I put a black cardigan from JC Penney on top.  It has a self tie around the waist.  I love cardigans.
For pants, I wore my uniform pants from my time at SiJCP.  Those are the most comfortable black pants I own.

 Accessories and Shoes:

I think this ring is from Wet Seal.  The nail polish is Louvre Me, Louvre Me Not by OPI.  Sorry about the crappy "manicure."  It was done at work.



These earrings came as a set from Forever21.com.  I know that they're sold out online but your store might have them available.
I got these shoes from TJMaxx. They're a brand named Tahari.  I still love menswear inspired shoes. 

The UPS man just dropped off a Forever 21 package (yay!) and a top from AMI and a dress from GoJane.com came earlier today.  I may take some pictures and do a collective haul post later...but I have another Forever 21 package coming tomorrow so I may wait...we'll see....

Until then........
