Obsession: Neon Yellow: Enzo Angiolini Color Block Pumps

As my obsession with neon yellow rages on, I found these gorgeous Enzo Angiolini color block pumps:


Sigh . . . oh, god I love these.

Accents of neon yellow paired with a neutral color makes them more versatile, less loud and more timeless. Neon is such a trend right now and it's everywhere. 

Trends like this don't really last. But then again I thought that about pointy shoes, jumpsuits and rompers and they are still around to some degree. Anywho . . .

I've been shopping online at Bloomingdale's ever since I got a gift certificate for Christmas from a broker. Thanks to my old job. I used some of it on much needed MAC make up but since then nothing has really excited me.

I've been looking for new shoes or a dress to wear to the wedding I'm going to in July. But no dice so far. I found a couple of shoes that I needed or a dress I liked but didn't fall in love with anything. I mean the I-have-to-have-it-am-obsessed reaction.

I have actually cash money to spend there, so I want to buy something I truly love (as opposed to need; see above) and instead of shopping for a good deal (which I always do and still will), I wanted to buy something expensive (which is all relative).

These shoes pretty much fit the above bill.

Only I don't know if I would actually wear them :(. I don't wear tall heels unless they are super comfortable any more because of all the walking around one does in NYC.

Plus, the older I get the less I want to wear uncomfortable shoes. Eh, I'm getting lazy :).

But I do love them . . .

My Party Outfit for This Saturday

On Saturday night- my friends Stef and Eric (Steric to some) are having a housewarming party complete with cocktail attire and a keg (hell, we are still in our twenties (for now)). I love a party because it will be with good friends and sure to be good times but also because I get to plan an outfit!!

Anyone who knows me, knows that I a) love clothes b)l ove an excuse to shop c) love to PLAN outfits and d)love wearing a well planned outfit.

I realize this is a little strange but I get a TON of pleasure out of planning and wearing an outfit that I love. So let me present to you, internet, the dress I'll be wearing on Saturday:

 

 I got this fun and lively (and usually expensive) dress via the fabulous Gilt Groupe. It's by 7 for All Mandkind, view more here. On my pretty little feet (actually my feet are a size 8-9 and not so pretty but you get the point) are these fabu shoes:
 



There are by Madeline Shoes and I got them from the really cool and old Queen Anne Dispatch. They were on sale for half off! I don't know if I've ever met a pair of shoes I didn't love for $30. I love these because they feel Hollywood and trendy (when I wear them, I feel like I should be at a movie premier) yet comfy. I think the olive green/gray and brown/red netting will contrast the eye catching black and white pattern nicely.

I know it's not quite matchy-matchy and a little more funky but that's precisely why I love it :).

Another little fantasy/dream of mine? Fashion stylist.

Big surprise, I know.
