Shoes, Glorious Shoes! 38

 Y'all.

It's been 4 years since I've done a shoe blog. FOUR. YEARS. I've commented on and off about how I needed to get back to blogging about shoes, but I don't think I realized it had actually been that long. In fairness, y'all have seen how crazy those 4 years (plus the few years prior) have been, so you get it. 

I need to resolve the home repair blogs, I realize that: but in fairness - we're still waiting on final projects to get done. So, I'm using that as my excuse to not blog about the end result.

So, today:

The last couple of weeks, I've really been wanting to play around with makeup. It's been probably a year+ since I have worn makeup. In COVID world, what's the point? I wanted to have fun, feel pretty, attempt to regain some of "that Katie". She's been gone for a long time, when you factor in makeup, outfit, shoes, etc. Basically since I left the States.  

Today, I finally went in. We had a pretty day outside, warm enough, and SUNNY. I don't have an eye doctor yet, so I am treating each pair of daily contact lenses like they are the most precious stone, that should never be touched. I'd say today's pair is maybe the 2nd or 3rd since we moved into the house a year 1/2 ago. I popped in the contacts, did my makeup, chose my outfit, and decided it was time to bust out the heels!

Brand: Madden Girl Name: Ranked
Store: I literally have no idea. I think I MAYBE got these at a thrift shop... or possibly as a hand-me-down from a friend
Review: 4" heel. Fits true to size, maybe a TAD small. I got them zipped, but I don't know if I would have, if they hadn't been peep-toe. They're very comfy, but as is the case with most peep-toes, if you do a lot of walking, the tops of your toes start to get raw, from the rubbing.

The outfit was casual dressy. I was just going to run errands, there was no need to go over the top.

The accessories. I started with this teal and pink Betsey Johnson watch, then choose the other accessories from there. My purse was also pink, but I forgot to take a picture of it.

So, yeah. Just another regular day of taking care of things around the house/running errands, but it was nice feeling a little more like myself again! I should do this more often. 😁
