Discovery! Must Share!

I am excited. Long, drawn-out story but I just discovered Sam Edelman. I’m almost embarrassed I was not already familiar!  I saw a girl wearing the most adorable boots on ebay and messaged her about them (obv they weren’t for sale but she was nice enough to divulge the brand). This lead me to discover that I am obsessed with any and all shoes by Sam Edelman. Esp these gorgeous booties that friendly ebay girl was wearing:

But it doesn’t stop there!

Literally every shoe is staring at me with weepy puppy eyes begging to have a home on my shoe shelf and my feet.

Am considering blowing christmas savings (who am I kidding?) on them.

A few more faves…

These lovely shoes can be purchased online at tons of retailers. Full list here.

Dressing Room Envy

So..this is pretty much my dream dressing room. Mine is coming together…a bit. Yesterday I got a wrought iron daybed (complete with trundle!). We have guests coming in town this weekend and I think a daybed befits a dressing room. I haven’t gotten it set up but I have high hopes. I need to hang pictures and a chandelier would really take everything to the next level.

So this is very raw but I’m going to incorporate the vanity, the shoe display and the day bed (below). I’d love to have a wall of mirrors, lots of art and I’m still considering the screen. Also needed: gigantic oriental rug.

The Search for Over-The-Knee Boots

So wanting these by MIA found on piperlime. They are so cute on the girl below (featured on piperlime’s website). At $299, they are a bit too expensive for me to take the plunge. I am now in the market for a knock-off of this boot. Please do share if you come across anything!

Say no to sweatpants.
