Block Sandals

Hello! I’m sure you are excited that it’s Monday. I am because that means I am one day closer to salsa class. Anyways, today it is all about the block heel sandals. 

My SJP Collection block sandals purchase inspired me to buy my Steve Madden Estoria  sandals.

I tried wearing my sandals on Saturday but the weather was ugly all day. Gloomy with a light drizzle that would not stop making it a tad too cold for sandals. Before stepping out the door I had to switch my sandals to sneakers. I was glad the weather on Sunday was not like Saturday and that I was actually able to wear my sandals as I headed out to lunch with my friends. 

Here are a couple of my block heel sandal picks.

Black Everything

Spring has Sprung and with Summer around the corner I have still gravitated towards black… Yes black. Black goes with everything and it’s easy to pair. Black has been my to go color (shade) recently. 

I had previous shared in the New For Spring post my Feather colored 3.1 Phillip Lim handbag… and just as I mentioned I was really contemplating on returning or exchanging the bag. At the end I did return the handbag as I was not 100% sure about the color. Having paid full price did hurt as well. Since these bags do go on sale I was worried about the color feather going on sale soon. 

Sales come and go and knowing when to take advantage is sometimes hard. I sometimes guess myself thinking maybe something better will come along. I just have to say I was glad I waited. A recent promotion at Neiman Marcus was applicable on this bag and I was able to snatch it for $200 off! This time I went with a safe color, black. 

Other sales and promos include my new black Prada sunglasses and Tory Burch sandals from Bloomingdales.

Not black but currently on sale at Neiman Marcus are these SJP Fawn Pumps which remind me that “there is no place like home.” I will forever be a fan of Fawn. 

And as always more SJP Collection shoes. The sales at Bloomingdales made me do it. Metallic Blue Fawn Pumps and Multi colored Jagger Heels. 

Everything is not black and white as we always need a little color in our lives.

Easter Weekend

Happy Easter! 

Had a lovely weekend with the hubs starting with a Friday night dinner. Casual Friday called for jeans and a black sweater shirt. Adding color to my outfit I wore my Tourqoise SJP Lady Pumps.  

 Saturday morning was a very lazy one which was enjoyable. I was able to get some baskets done for the nieces before heading out to dinner. No special outfit.  

 Easter Sunday…we got to sleep in then I had a chance to run some errands before attending mass. I took out my purple SJP Lady Pumps to match my floral dress.

Two of…

Two of everything please. I noticed I have too many two of the same shoes, shirts and dresses in my closet. I’m sure that happens to most of us when we like something. We like a shoe and we end up getting the shoe in two different colors. 

First two of are my MK slip-ons. I purchased the black last year sometime in spring. I was going to buy these in the khaki color but my size was sold out so I went with the black. I have worn these a lot and when the white were available this year I got my hands on them as well.

Another two of in my closet are my crochet Toms. I purchased the black during a BOGO. Since I have enjoyed my shoes I wanted a second pair for our Cancun vacation last year and I was lucky to find these yellow ones on clearance last year.  

 

Toms: here and here

Express has been my go to place for tops. I have a couple of the portofino blouses for work and I love them. They are available in many different colors and as the seasons change so do the designs. These are just a couple.   

Tops: here

All the tops pictured above were paired off with a SJP Collection heel and all the above are a two of… and in some cases even four of. I just love this collection and I kept buying and adding as the sales go on.  My repeat offenders are the Carrie, Fawn and Lady pumps.

When summer hits LA the dresses come out. I will go anywhere for a dress that are under $30; TJ Maxx, Old Navy and H&M. I first bought the green floral dress and I really liked the colors and design that I went back to buy the purple.

Shine On

We all need a little sparkle in our lives. The sparkle in our eyes when we look at our significant other or the sparkle in our shoes. Yes shoes! I have many colored shoes and thought I needed to add something different to my collection and I sure did with my Ursula SJP Collection heels. I had previously shared this shoe in my New Year New Shoes post when I first bought them. I finally wore them last night with a black dress to a concert and got many compliments.   

   
I really didn’t take a pic of the dress but I got the dress on sale from Express. The shoes were purchased on sale from Bloomingdales and have since sold out there but they are available on sale at 6pm. You can also check out other SJP shoes on sale at Bloomies. 

Here is a small clip so that you can see that these shoes sparkle at ever angle. 

  
Happy Sunday!
