September Shoes | Jeffrey Campbell "Foxtrot"

 There's been so much hype over Jeffrey Campbell shoes over the last couple of years, and I finally decided to get myself a pair. Truthfully, I haven't seen a style that I liked until now. Suddenly I have quite a few pairs of JC shoes on my wish list- and I started with the "Foxtrot".


I absolutely love the black, simple strap style of heeled sandal. They just look super chic, classic, and compliments absolutely everything. I love how they are a bit "chunkier" and go well with bulkier clothing. The suede material caught my eye, as well as the velcro strap. It's still classic, but a bit more casual for every day. Zara's leather single strap sandal has a similar idea, but are much less comfortable (but still absolutely gorgeous). 



These shoes are quite comfortable and easy to walk around in. Because the strap across the toes is a bit thicker it doesn't dig into the foot. The sole is soft and padded, and the rubber bottom provides great traction. My only (minor) complaint is that sometimes the velcro comes undone walking down stairs (living in Manhattan comes with those pesky subway stairs!). It's not the biggest deal though, I can always loosen the velcro beforehand. These are the perfect cross between heels and comfort shoes. Loveee.



I purchased these at Nordstrom, and they come in black, red, mint, tan, and black/tan in sizes 5-12, and they fit true to size. I've been wearing mine everywhere, with dresses to ripped boyfriend jeans. Definitely one of my favorite pairs of shoes.

Once Upon A Shopping Spree - Black Friday Haul

After a filling and delicious Thanksgiving meal, a friend and I ventured to the Wrentham Outlets' Midnight Madness Black Friday Sale as well as the Natick Collection and picked up some goodies. It's been a tradition since we got our licenses around 6-ish years ago. I picked up a few gifts, as well as a few things for myself:
Ted Baker, got it for about half price!

Brownie Pan! Not that I need to be baking after all that I ate over the weekend.

Cane & Austin Acne Treatment pads
One of my absolute FAVORITE skincare products. It's expensive, at $60 at SpaceNK, but completely worth it. It clears up acne, prevents new breakouts, evens out skin tone, and reduces signs of aging. This is my third or fourth pack of these, and I'll be buying them forever.


My grandmother loves Lancome's skin care line, and this was the free gift that came with purchase that she let me keep!

Lancome Genifique Serum
Genifique Eye Cream
Bi- Facil eye make up remover

Hypnose Doll Mascara
Eyeshadow top row: "Designer" (metallic) It's a sage color, but I'm not sure if it'll show as accurately in the picture & "Latte" (matte). Bottom: "It List" (matte) & "Volcano"(shimmer)

Kate Spade, half price!

Kate Spade Bow Earrings

Kate Spade Bow Bangles. I realize I went a bit bow-crazy, but they were just so cute!

Cole Haan Loafers- I've been wanting leopard flats for the longest time, and finally found one for a reasonable price! ($77 from $188)

Did you find any good black friday deals? Also, if you've got any suggestions/comments/recommendations about lancome, please leave a comment below! I've never tried anything of theirs!

A Christmas List

A bit of a Christmas wishlist:



Such a cute and chic coat, it'll go with everything, and wouldn't go out of style.


I've always wanted a pair of leather pants!

And have been searching for the perfect pair of leather ballet flats. I've tried on so many, but these are so perfect!
One of my favorite candles.
A pair of ankle boots would be nice to add to my shoe closet.

Obsessed with tote bags, and this one is small enough to not look like suitcase, but large enough to dump my life in.

What's on your Christmas list?
