Ryan thinks its really funny to take these not so fabulous photos of me, but since I am pretty goofy anyway I let it slip into a blog post, plus Ryan says they are his favorite so I let him have one! |
I have been seeing this dress all over the inter webs, and I have been on the fence for the entire summer. When it finally went on sale I decided to snag it up, and when my package arrived it did not disappoint. I love the light weight gingham fabric and the fact that this is loose fitting perfect for these high temps we have been having lately. I wore this to the movies this weekend and decided to pair it with a striped sweater. I swear theaters are like sub zero in the summer, I have grown accustomed to layering all my outfits, it makes it easier to transition from sub zero inside temps to ten million degrees outside. Since I had already added the strips why not throw in some polkadot Keds. All I am missing is my signature leopard print.
Random story about Keds and my childhood, growing up I had really narrow feet (still have really narrow feet) and I had the hardest time finding shoes. I remember the only shoes I could find that fit me were white Keds, and being in 1st and 2nd grade I was not happy about this. I started to hate them begging my mom to let me get anything else, until they came out with a splatter paint pair which I thought was basically the best pair of shoes ever! Anyway once my feet became a more normal size I got to be like the cool kids and wear Nike/Reebock etc. I ended up hating Keds, refusing to ever wear them again. Funny how many years later they seem to be making a come back and now I have 3 pair..including a white pair. I guess my mom was on to something, because they seriously fit like a dream and are super cute, especially the Kate spade collaboration pairs, I keep seeing so many that I want to own!!
