shoe covet

Oh man I really want these right now. But can't afford them. I'll just have to covet from afar.

mens oxfords and bright red socks.

I would love some mens oxford shoes like the ones above from the  2008 JCrew Holiday catalog. Men's shoes don't really some in my size for the most part. Very cool though. I'll keep my eyes peeled. I'm also on the look out for bright red socks. I've noticed more men wearing bright socks to match their tie. I really want to adopt that too. 

shoes, shoes, wonderful shoes

Can we talk about awesome shoes for a minute? I have been craving to get some incredibly hip shoes, but always hesitate when I think about the occasions when I would actually wear them. Besides, sometimes its more fun to dream about them than commit to just one pair. So here are some new finds: 

1) Beverly by Remix

2) Fly London Sally Pump

3) Sandal by Remix Vintage

4) Ribbon Tie Ballerina from Toast

5)Suede Brogue also from Toast

6) Candela Tassle Oxford found at Urban.

Any favorites? I actually think I would wear the last three more regularly. And the top ones are AMAZING. Shoes are fun, and it's better to covet from affar. 

tonight's distractions

Well this evening is another working evening... so much to do for finals. But Christmas break is a nice reward. And I have a nice thing going here at my desk. Candle burning, down pillows behind my back, chai tea with milk, and currently The Wes Montgomery Trio plays. I've been locking Lainey in the room with me so she feels wanted. Hank is a demanding little boy and I want her to have alone time with mom. 

Anyways... check out this album I'm listening to (song: track 2 "The End of a Love Affair"):

What are some things on your Christmas wish list? Anything special you hope Santa will bring? I'm wanting these shoes. Might be a long shot but I'll keep my fingers crossed!
