Today's Everyday Fashion: Colorblocked Heels

































First, let's talk shoes. Please say hello to my new shoes. Totally obsessed.  I've been keeping an eye out for idea/inspiration on how to wear two-toned/colorblocked shoes and this photo gave me the idea for today's outfit.

Next, let's talk leather skirts. Remember these crazy pants? Well, this leather skirt was also in the hand-me-down pile and so I snapped it up. It's currently being held together by a safety pin (hidden from sight, but not cute) but leather skirts are very on trend right now, so I think I like it enough to replace the button. Awesome free hand me downs = score!

Finally, I always tie my coats back like this so they stay open. Anyone else do that?

Trench: New York and Company, $50
Leather skirt: Handed down from a friend
Shirt: Express, really old
Necklace: Banana Republic, $13

  2. This is a great outfit! Love the leather skirt and the color block shoes.  I do tie my jackets in the back too. I thought I was the only one that did that.  Heather

  11.  Your new shoes are so hot!! I think two-toned shoes are so fun and versatile and your new ones are great! I'm also loving the leather skirt! I have a mini one but would love a knee length one that I could dress up for more formal occasions! Or even to rock one at work- but I still haven't decided whether I think it'd be appropriate!
