All of the shoes I own are black. With the exception of a ratty pair of riding boots and some leopard print flats, it's pretty dismal. Something about a good black shoe, whether it be a pump, a wedge or some booties, that is hard to deny. It's the details that get me to buy yet another pair of black shoes despite owning far too many. The texture of these next 2 pairs got me hooked. The basket weave makes even black leather appear soft, soft enough to wear with any spring look. One of these pairs is by Dolce Vita, the other found at Forever 21. Can you tell which is which?

I have always been a fan of Liberty of London. Admittedly, I'm a sucker for a good floral- who can blame me? And the prints for the Liberty collection for Target did not disappoint. On this hideous rainy day, walking into the South Bay Target and being greeted by vibrant hues and bold prints was thrilling. I quickly grabbed the maxi dress I had been eyeing from the commercials (blue and green peacock feather print), a pink/orange floral structured dress, one pleated number, and a more casual looking, pastel color dress. I contemplated trying on some of the bathing suits (which were absolutely adorable), but this pale, winter body + bad neon lighting would not have been a good combo.
