Hey guys.

Monica blogged her look today so I’m following suit. It’s Friday, and I can wear whatever I want, so I’m going a bit cas in jeans and a grey cardi (Gap long & lean jeans are my staple; some people say I have a cardigan “problem”. plus an h&m tank), but I jazzed it up a bit with these SUPER hot shoes (Nine West Shoesnoop) that I got on sale for $20 at Macy’s earlier this summer. I have tried to wear them with skirts and though I’ve got some pretty stellar gams, it really cuts them off at the ankle, and I prefer a longer look in skirts. However, with cuffed jeans these shoes totally rock. A little bit of metallic pewter is subtly shimmery, but the grey leather is so in. And for being ridiculously tall, they’re surprisingly comfortable.

The earrings are a favorite of mine, similar to the photo shown. Mine are actually on a long bronze colored hook, with a smooth disc of a raspberry colored stone and a little sweet pink faceted jewel hanging in front. The designer is Irene Wood (shop) who is an incredibly talented and super sweet lady. She’s from Seattle and actually went to high school with Monica, and is also friends with another lovely girl I used to work with. Connections! I drool over her jewelry at every trunk show and get compliments every time I wear things she’s made.

Casual Friday at its best!
