^^^ Here are some of my favorite pointy shoes this Season ~

Whatever your style is & whatever you feel happiest with on your feet - don't be afraid of the point!!!

One of the biggest mistakes shorter people make (that i literally see every single day) is wearing round toed shoes....especially with flared jeans. It's a no - no - no!!! 

There's a serious trick of the eye that by wearing pointer shoes, it elongates the leg (especially heels) and draws your eyes up and out making you appear longer & leaner, as opposed to stopping short at your feet and your round toed shoes. 

Trust me - I'm not saying that every pair of your flats and boots have to be "pointy" - it's just something to keep in mind when shoe shopping. Try on multiple pairs of shoes with different toe styles to see and feel the difference !

Sam Edelman Petty Boots - In LEATHER

My Sam Edelman booties have been a super staple shoe in my wardrobe the past few seasons . I've adopted the Putty boots, & the Snake Skin printed.... I think it's time to get back to the basics and scoop up these black leather guys right in time for Fall! <3

30 Beautiful Years!

^ Them today! (on May 7th)

^ My Mom & Dad's wedding day 30 years ago! 

May 7th of this year was my Mom & Dads' 30th wedding anniversary!!...pretty big stuff, especially in the eyes of someone (myself) who has been married for 2 little months & has only been alive for almost 26 years! ...crazy. 

Chris & I spent the day with my parents with a bit of reminiscing, looking thru their old wedding album, and oogling over their super cute little wedding shrine covered in flowers that they set up every year on their anniversary. It's truly amazing and gives the universe hope that you can meet later in life (as my parents did, in their 30's) and be happily married for 30+ years! They are still so cute and unbelievably happy even when life is cruel with aging you, they spend every day together and are still best friends. I hope in 30 years from now Chris & I are half as in love and happy as they are, it's truly an inspiration and such a rare, beautiful thing. 

In honor of their celebrations, we went over to my parents house (5 min from our house in Mystic, CT) and shared a bottle of 20+ years aged magnum bottle of Veuve Clicquot with them & then had an amazing dinner out at one of our favorite restaurants, S&P Oyster in downtown Mystic. <3 

Such a lovely evening with such amazing parents!

As someone who rarely wears heels (mostly because they are just not very comfortable and I'm already 5'8 as it is and don't find a need to tower over every human around me)...which makes it a bit more challenging when trying to find shoes to wear with dresses or heels that aren't massive but still have some pazzaz to 'em, while still being semi-shnazzy! These are a few i've collected that might help spark something in you to help you also find some shoes that you may have seen that make more sense to purchase now that you can picture them with an outfit!

You don't need to wear 6" platforms to feel sexy and feel seen. Shoes are certainly important, but style inside-out is way more noticeable and important!

Sam Edelman Booties...yes i wear these A LOT! I think it's time i get them in a few other colors. They are my favorite go to shoes these days.

Snake ring (gift from Chris!) and my vintage diamond band (from my Mom!) that I pretty much wear every day! The gold peace sign ring is from a vintage sale I found in Brooklyn a few years ago. I like to change up the ring I wear on top of my diamond band, but this is usually my staple right hand ring jewels!

The calm before the storm!

As you all know, today (Tuesday) is the day after Hurricane Sandy. We got super lucky here in Boston with being able to keep our power, but our home town of Mystic, CT isn't doing so well! There are tons of tree's down, ripped from the ground with roots and all that crushed cars, houses, took off roofs, and a severe amount of flooding all over the place! NOT GOOD.

This past weekend was great though! We had an awesome time with friends catching up and reuniting; we also celebrated Halloween a bit early which was hysterical and so much fun.
