A Little Holiday Cheer

December 21, 2010


This morning I woke up and noticed it was the second day in a row that the lights should be on during the day. It’s super dreary and dark . . . like most of the winter here. So I thought, I’ll wear something bright for a little holiday cheer! But I’ve hardly looked down at myself all day (so it’s doing me no good) and I have no plans to leave the house (so it will do no one else good. Good thing I have this blog to make sure someone other than my dog gets to see how cute I am. ;) I’d also like to think that Bob is getting more cheerful because of my bright tangerine tank and turquoise necklace.

But you may notice I have a sweet pair of heels on! Yeah. These shoes hurt if I am standing for more than 45 minutes, but they’re so cute! I wore them to a wedding a year and a half ago and have only worn them a handful of times since because they’re so painful. However, I am so desperate to wear heels that I broke them out! Aren’t they so cute! My little piggies are freezing though. And that is why I usually wear boots.

Bob just caught me. I had turned the heater up to 76. :)

    I love this whole outfit – the orange & turquoise, the cute ruffled shoes, the striped sweater! It’s unexpected but it all looks so great together.

    Those shoes are definitely worth the pain. They look perfect! I love the feminine detail on the front! The colours in this outfit are also perfect. I am a huge fan of orange and turquoise!

    This outfit is adorable! I love the turquoise and coral. Sometimes its’ good just to get dressed, then there is at least the potential for something exciting to happen.
