Featured Shoe: Manolo Blahnik Uliepe Yellow
Mine came from Barneys where they still have a few other colors. The yellow is still there too, but in limited sizes.

I couldn’t wait too long to wear the red version of the black & white dress from the other day. I paired it with an olive embellished cardigan, also from Target, a skinny patent yellow belt and this cool vintage purse.
The purse was from an antiques fair I go to twice a year. There a few favorite vendors that always have the best stuff.
The purse is strips of wood and opens from the top. Perfect to take to our group lunch event.
The heels are Manolo Blahnik Uliepes – the perfect pump – and an awesome yellow. They’re so pretty I took a bunch of shots so they’ll get a post of their own.
This was for a group lunch with folks I hadn’t met before. Fun, comfortable but with some interesting color matching. I hope I don’t bore you, because I love these two dresses and they are going to be fun to play with.
I just received an email from an online store and one of the shoes that were being promoted, a Paris Hilton heel, look insanely similar. Except for materials, the Paris Hilton Senorita d’Orsay heels look just like Valentino’s d’Orsay heels.
Can you tell which is which?
Shoe 1:
In spite of the fact that it’s a million degrees out and I’m not happy in/with this image, I’m sharing it because, well… I’m wearing a “mullet” skirt for WendyB.
Yeah! An outfit post!
I really need to try to find time to take these in the morning because, as you can see, the lighting in my house is “dim” to put it kindly. Dismal and cave-like would be more appropriate.
But, I was so happy with my outfit today I decided to take some shots anyways. I made the mistake of going into Target last night and ended up with a bunch of stuff. Some of it needed, none of it pricey ($8 tanks, tees and yoga capris, yes please! $19 comfy cute dresses, okay! Robe so I stop scaring the neighbors, yep!) and perfect for wearing to work and on weekends.
The first thing I wanted to wear was this really cute stripey jersey tank dress. And then I saw the bright apple green 3/4 sleeve cardi. I have to admit here that I am hopeless at mixing patters. I love it on others, aspire to it and then fall into the trap of matchy-matchy all the time. So here’s my happy little mixing outfit… I paired black and white stripes with a leopard belt and shoes.
WHOA!!!!
I’m loving the color/pattern combo.
For jewelry, I’m also mixing but more like matching – my Wendy Brandes “Chicken on Nest” necklace and my new “vegan” hen necklace from Julep115 via Etsy.
Grosgrain bows and heel detail.
I’ve been totally slack recapping the Instant Access! I’m not going to put everything up but here are a few (mostly shoe) highlights-
Missed connections. Ships passing in the night. Late arrivals.
I somehow missed seeing these adorable Manolo Blahnik sandals and now my size is nowhere to be found. Such a pretty pink satin paired with the softest dove grey velvet bow and milky iridescent rhinestones.
