OOTD-Perfectly Patent Red








Happy Valentine's Day to my feet!!! Last weekend the bf and I took a little side trip to the thrift store. We had hopes that going to one of the far out, nicer areas would produce a load of fancy, designer goods at a steal. Yeah, no such luck. He made out like a bandit in button-downs and I found nothing but these lovely red pumps sitting in a bin, looking completely unworn, in my size. The bf was nice enough to gift me an early Valentine's gift (or maybe I had a puppy dog face on). Don't they add just the perfect pop?

What's your favorite way to add some extra oomph, pow or pop to an outfit?

Outfit Details:
Black button back top- Yesstyle.com (similar style in stripes here, short sleeve and great price here)
Grey skinny ankle jeans- J Brand
Long pearl strand- Marc by Marc Jacobs
Black handbag- Foley + Corinna (similar available here)
Red patent pumps- Van Eli (thrifted)

  2. Love your shoes! They are just perfect with your outfit, too. :)

    Red and bright pink are my favorite pops of color right now. I am actually on the hunt for a pair of red ballet flats but not having much luck finding a pair, unfortunately.

  5. I'm with you, bright shoes are always the way to go - I love my yellow flats. I agree with Amy and Simplychic - the buttons are so much fun, and paired with the pearls it's a fun sophistication!
