Steve doesn't think this outfit is ugly. I say it is.
The shoes don't match, wrong shade of brown. Seriously, I'm going to dare to go out in public with shoes that are a different shade of brown than the buttons on my jacket. That is daring. My mother taught me better. I know, I'll even use a purse that is a different shade of brown then the shoes and the buttons. I am really living on the edge now.
I decided to hurry up and run to Target to see if I could find any decent shoes for Saturday. I really didn't want to plunk down $90 for a pair of shoes, even if they were very pretty. Target was my last hope for a nice cheap pair of faux patent leather black stilletto heels.
Target had some in black, but I quickly realized they were all peep toed. I would love peep toe shoes. My very retro black lace dress would look mah-vel-lous with peep toe shoes. However, I can't do the cute little peep toed shoes. I can't believe I am telling you all this, but I feel the need to tell you why. You see, the second toe on my right foot, only my right foot, is longer than the first. So, when I wear peep toe shoes, the second toe on my right foot steals the show from my lovely big toe. Trust me, it's creepy. I wouldn't subject Steve's colleagues to such a horrific sight.
So yeah, no peep toe black patent leather heels for me. Thankfully, boob-squeezing fashion designer Isaac Mizrahi designs an el-cheapo collection for Target. So nice that he would do such charity work for those of us that would love to wear designer clothes, but don't have the bank account to support such an indulgence.
These are what I found....
I love, love, love them. They go awesome with my dress and best of all, they were on clearance for $14.98! I reasoned that since, technically, I saved Steve $75, that I could indulge in a cute little black purse for $12.99 to go with the whole ensemble. You have to wait for a picture of the whole ensemble after Saturday, when my hair isn't in a haphazard cock-eyed ponytail and I have makeup on so I don't look like death warmed over.
