it was the perfect piece to tie lavender and red together. i also liked how the embroidered flowers mimic the flowers on the shoes. what do you think?
i moved my mirror into the living room to see if i could get better lighting... not sure if it worked.
i am so glad i was able to get these shoes! they were from j.crew spring 2010? maybe earlier... when they originally debuted at over $300, i knew they would never be mine. but randomly i was able to get them on ebay last week for a steal! so funny how that works sometimes. there are still multiple listings in a variety of sizes (just search j.crew colleen). they run true to size (as i think all j.crew shoes do) and are pretty comfortable.
i love the vintage velvet flowers on the toes. i think the lavender color is neutral enough to wear everyday.
so cute!

What a great exercise in color! Those shoes are so beautiful, they need a shelf to sit on and be admired.
ReplyDeleteHi there! I found your blog through Sweet Laundry Loves. Love the purple and orange/red together and I think you are pulling it off wonderfully. Those shoes are very nice, and it is great you got a good deal on them, makes them even more special eh?
ReplyDeletefallonroxann - thanks so much! i know, they came without a box. so they just might end up on a shelf :)
ReplyDeletejess - welcome! so glad you found me. :) a good deal always makes something more special. i definitely agree!
