"Those are some optimistic shoes..."
"Well, those shoes sure are optimistic!" I got that comment more than once yesterday at work while strolling around the office in these cheery yellow jellies. The morning started out bright warm, and I just couldn't resist them, but perhaps I should have looked at the weather forecast? As you can see, it was quite damp by the time I left work! But could you blame me for wearing them? I've been waiting since early winter when I picked them up for $10 on sale at DSW! The bows kill me!
Once again I'm hopefully channeling spring/summer, especially with this adorable sailboat printed top (which is still available!). I love how it looks like someone painted them on with watercolors, it makes for such a whimsical pattern. It's also got an an exposed zipper at the back neckline which I totally forgot to take a picture of, but it looks really cool!

I laid in bed last night with the window cracked, listening to the rain pattering outside my window and thunder rolling. Thunderstorms are my favorite!

For real, if our shoes can't be optimistic, than WHAT can?! Love the bows! And yellow's my favorite color, ever!
ReplyDeleteIf I wasn't grounded from ever shopping, again, in my entire life. I'd be buying that top RIGHT NOW.
LOL ditto!! I want your chevron dress so bad but I NEED to not buy anything for a little while!
ReplyDeleteI have those shoes in green and LOVE THEM! The yellow might be my favorite though. ;) What an adorable outfit. That top is just too cute and I love your accessories.
ReplyDeleteThose shoes are so cute for Spring! BTW, I LOVE that nail polish, what is it? I've been looking for the perfect shade of light purple!
ReplyDeleteThat top is so cute! Damn, I really need to hit up F21 more often...
ReplyDelete@Kinsey it's American Apparel L Espirit - there's a link to it in the list of what I'm wearing!
ReplyDeletelove the whole ensemble! the shoes are so cute!
ReplyDeleteI ordered this top over the weekend and I can't wait to get it. It looks super cute on you and the yellow shoes are the perfect finishing touch!
ReplyDeleteThe sail boat print is lovely!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome shoe score!! I love them! Those, together with the print of your top make this look so much fun!
ReplyDeleteAriana, I am totally guilty of being a daily reader of your blog and never commenting! Thanks so much for commenting on my blog today :) I can't get over how much I love that sailboat top & spring yellow shoes-- you look fab!
ReplyDeleteThe sailboat print is so adorable and unique! I love fun prints like that!
ReplyDeleteAnd those shoes are downright happy!
@Kimberly Yay! Can't wait to see how you style it up!
ReplyDelete@Shealennon I know right! nothing better than a good deal!
@Mary Lol we're all silent readers at some point, just glad to have you :)
I am loving this blog and have been contemplating the F21 sailboat top. I was wondering, does it run big? I'm a 16, and would usually hit the 2X here but was wondering if I could maybe size down to the 1X. Thanks!
ReplyDelete@C it's definitely a roomy top - I have the 2X, my bust is 47" and the girls have got room to spare. If you're small busted I definitely think you could go with the 1X. Hope that helps!
