Comfy black booties? Check.

Booties: Modcloth, Black skirt: H&M, Grey tee: Target, Necklace: Paraphernalia, Stripey stockings: Sock Dreams; Green dress: Target, Disco bracelet: The Other Side vintage, Pink ring: Ragin' Daisy

My necklace was hidden in all of the usable photos (of course), but it's the Mad Hatter necklace from Paraphernalia.

Recently I was contacted by the incredibly nice people over at Modcloth and asked if I would like to choose something from the New Items category to keep and write about. Yes please! Because of my current quest for black booties, I picked the Night on the Town Bootie and have been wearing them to death. I kind of waffled about what I should pick (everything is so pretty!) but my intense shoe-love won out in the end. I've mostly been wearing them sans-tights, but they're going to be lovely for winter as well.

The slouchy look! A peep-toe! Love love love.

PS: Pretty soon I'm going to introduce a weekly feature to the blog- a kind of inspirational/things-I-love-at-the-moment post for the week. I also have a fun giveaway coming up, so stay tuned!

  1. Great booties! The word 'booties' always makes me giggle, though, because I think of little woolly baby booties. Is that what you call them over there, too?

  2. Haha yes, it makes me giggle too! I think that's the only reason I keep using that word. Although I was going to say something about having "bootie lust" and then I realized how wrong that sounds.

    LOL I love weird word verifications.

  15. YES! Oh my gosh, Middlesex was the first book I read this summer (it was amazing) and it really got me re-interested in all things intersex. I had to wait ages for "Sexing the Body" to come on interlibrary loan but it was so worth it!

  17. I lurve that first outfit of yours! The stripey stockings are amazing and add a bit of whimsicality to your ensemble. (I've got that grey Target tee - I wear it all the time because it's the comfiest thing ever.)
