A Dress to Match a Necklace

So, I wore this necklace last weekend with an adorable gray dress.

And it struck me after looking at the photos that I had been seeing that pink color all over the place with bright navy colors. So, now I am on the hunt for the perfect navy dress to match the necklace.

Here's one I like a lot so far from VS:


Now I'm wondering if I'm nuts for wanting to buy a dress to match an accessory. Seems backwards a bit...no?

Boots! I want these boots!

On the heels of my debt journey divulging post...

I found these boots this morning on Think Classy and I think I am withering away by the minute here trying to figure out how to justify spending $350 on a pair of boots that are EVERYTHING I want in brown boots....


Drooooooooool

Ode to the Mary Jane

On days I cannot balance, your strap keeps things in place
When the sidewalk tries to throw me, you won't fly to your demise
You never sound like I'm farting or like I'm at the beach
You are the perfect shoe

You come in loads of colors and match with many things
You never go out of style, your silhouette's too pure
I can wear you with some legging, jeans, slacks or a skirt
You match my evening dresses and add some spunk to jeans & Ts
You are the perfect shoe

You compliment my innocence with the simple little strap
And you highlight my sophistication with your patent leather sheen
You show that I am trendy but never over the top
You are the perfect shoe

If my feet are swollen your strap adjusts to fit just right
And when my feet are cold and small you keep my step in place and never let them flop
How can I thank you, Mary Janes, for your simple perfect shape
I'll just say again - You are the perfect shoe

*Please note I love all shoes, but sometimes I just have to play favorites ;-)
