Today's Everyday Fashion: The Yellow Shoes






































Okay, so this outfit is a very loose interpretation of my inspiration photo (from J.Crew, left). Her look is work, mine is weekend - but I used the same color palette, which I am seriously loving (periwinkle, olive, khaki and yellow). Here is my conundrum though - I recently picked up these yellow heels from TJ Maxx for $25 (used my gift card). I can't decide if I really, really love or totally and completely hate them (trust me, it's a complicated world in my head).

What's your take - should I keep the yellow shoes?

Sweater: Gap
Belt: American Eagle/Filene's Basement, $5

Earrings: Urban Outfitters, $5

  5. You guys are helping so much! Votes are unanimous for keeping them! :-)

    Jillian, I just added the brand to the caption. They are by Bandolino and I'm pretty sure they are real leather!

  9. I have a pair of mustard yellow shoes that I have a love-hate relationship with as well. They give an awesome little bit of color, especially with grays, but it's kind of limited what I can wear with them.

    I say if they're comfy, keep them!

  12. I might be the only one but I'm not sure that I love the shoes. I think I'd have to see how else they could be worn before deciding. I had a similar dilemma with a pair of red-ish patent shoes that I bought on sale at Macy's but they quickly became one of my favorite pairs once I realized how versatile they can be!

  13. The shoes look alright, but they don't seem versatile. I would lose em.
