But first things first, and let's start with the shoes. These are the ones that I have decided to keep, the thumbled leather Reva in royal tan (size 7, the fit TTS):
They are extremely soft leather (I didn't even need to break them in) and the perfect color for early spring, but they can also be worn in the winter (when itsn't too cold) with tights. In fact I worn them right out of the box with the Sunnie and ribbed tights to take my daughter to a concert (I tend to wear the Sunnie with the Chalet boots, so I was happy to have a "milder weather" option):
I had also bought the patent leopard print ones in stores. These one run half a size smaller (because of the patent) IMO and I got a 7H. It was a tough decision to return them but I know that I would have worn them much less (they are more wintery and because of the pattern don't go with everything). However they are absolutely stunning in real life and it is the kind of shoes that don't go unnoticed in the street (they really tested my vanity). At least I have pictures:
Last pair, that I also returned because I didn't like them that much and I have already two pairs still in good conditions, are the Thora sandals in the same patent leopard-print. They are a little bit too dark for the summer for my test, even if they are perfect with safari-inspired outfits:
I couldn't reccomend the Thora sandals more, they are the most comfortable sandals that I own and they look stylish with everything (I own a pair in silver and a pair in a patent blue). But I will wait maybe next year to buy a new pair (I needed a ride-along for the free shipping anyway).
As I said I fell head over my heels for a new dress, but I am running late and it is worth a dedicated post.
Any questions let me know.
I have to say I love your pedicure polish color - can you tell me what brand/color it is? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI also have the tumbled leather Reva in royal tan and love them. Very versatile and comfortable - just wore them yesterday :)
ReplyDeleteKate, I forgot to mention it. It's Essie's Tart Deco, one of my favorite colors for spring.
ReplyDeletesparrow, I didn't know you have these in your collection. This is my first pair of tumbed leather and I will maybe get the navy too.
LOVE the new Tory tan flats----gorgeous, and perfect. I also think the flip flops look really good one you...love those, too. Why, oh why, does Tory have to be so pricey though??!!!!
ReplyDeleteDo the Thora Sandals fit TTS or do you order up or down?
ReplyDeleteI loved all of them on you; I don't know how you were able to return them!
mrs.anketell, I know they are expensive but so worth it.
ReplyDeleteUrban Blonde, they fit TTS, I take my regular size (all my other pairs fit the same). I know, that was tough!
