May it be the freezing temps and snow on this Spring day that has inspired me to randomly hunt down some silver for my closet, probably, but more then happy to add regardless of how it crawled into my much needed list. The only problem is limiting to a choice few as I am a bit obsessed with each pair here.

Walking into Fall

From Top Alexander Wang, Kate Spade ASOS

For me there is always an excuse to add new shoes as the season changes. I am one of those that plan my outfit most of the time around what shoes I will be wearing, yes a problem or more like a personality that was engraved into my core with my first pair of Doc Martins in 9th grade. I really feel though that I can splurge more on shoes by keeping most of my wardrobe in the neutral zone and letting my shoes be the trend most of the time.. Cheap stuff in large quantities will cost you more in the long run then a few good quality pieces that if taken care of can last a life time,....maybe, totally depends on how you treat things I guess ;)

Clogged

I am actually feeling the clog thing again, the more I see them the more I crave a pair.. Which means I will give in.
Hope you are having a great week, I am sick.. again... having a little one in first grade completely wreaks havoc on your immune system.. lol
I will be back later with this weeks recipe.

Animal instincts

While browsing the blogland last night I came across these amazing (I have no words really) shoes that Hello Max posted. Definitely taking design to a new level (suggest display only ) ;)

It follows my mood a bit for this weekend, I will be in the studio with inspirations from Inland Empire" It involves smoke machines, gas masks (instead of bunny heads) Not sure exactly what will come of my subject matter, but excited to experiment.

Also a Shop Leigh update, I have listed a pair of Earnest Sewn Jeans for sale this week.

Happy Weekend!
