I bought a few skirts today that are kind of short but meant to be worn with tights. What do you think about these shoes with them? Would these look cute with tights or am I hitting the crack pipe too hard? They also come in black but I don’t know if I would like black tights with black shoes.
There are also these:
And these:
I saved the best ones for last. These are the ones I really want but they’re $350!!!!!! Not in my budget – thanks for nothing, Marc Jacobs!

When I was at Target last week I was unable to resist the shoe department’s pull. Every now and then I’ll snag a trendy, inexpensive pair from one of the endcaps and this time was a big score.
At full price, they’re $16.99 but they were on sale for $15:

They’re even cuter on. Don’t be afraid to do a half size smaller than usual; I did (because they didn’t have my size and I NEEDED them) and it was for the best because they stretch a bit. Thanks, Target!

While chaperoning last weekend I was surprisingly impressed by my students’ attire. I don’t know if it’s where I work or just teenagers in general, but all they wear to school are sweats. I don’t mean jeans and a sweatshirt, I mean leggings and a t-shirt, pajama pants – they look halfway to homeless.
The young men on our trip looked very nice but let’s be honest, men just wear a suit and they’re done. The girls put together some pretty fabulous and sophisticated outfits that I took note of. Two girls in particular were wearing these Steve Madden boots in black:

The boots really look a lot better in person, especially after they’re been broken in a bit. I scoured the internet for them and finally stumbled upon a gently used pair (in my size!!) on eBay. And I bid. And I lost. The boots are from last season so they are gone for good.
So I looked and looked some more and found these from Naturalizer:

What do you think? I like the hardware on these but I’m not crazy about the bottoms or the slightly pebbled look to the leather. I should also point out that grandmas wear Naturalizer. Now I love my grandmas, but we don’t share shoes. Thoughts?
