Lulus.com purchase - SHOES

Rebecca and I just received our at lulus.com order on Thursday evening. It has been sitting at the post office for almost a week but since Rebecca has been soaking up the sun in Peurto Rico we were unable to pick it up until just recently. We visited the post office, not a minute past 5pm (after work) and upon picking up our parcel we annihilated the box in the open parking lot. I even had a random lady ask me if we were selling the shoes because we had 6 pairs come out of the box which we were putting in my trunk (haha). We then disposed the box beside a small garbage can and made a run for it. During this process, we realized we wouldn't make a good getaway team. LOL!

Hipster Floral Print Shoes

I purchased a pair of floral hipster shoes from ShoeDazzle which was outside my normal style. I absolutely fell in love with them when I saw them  online however, when I received them in the mail I was a bit hesitant on what I would wear them with. They have been sitting around since February 2012 on my drawer at work. On Thursday I had wore a pair of super high wedges that were a bit uncomfortable and that still need some breaking in.

Since my little floral booties were already readily available to me, I had put them on. They are super comfy, tres chic and simply so unique. To my surprise, they also happened to match with my outfit which was just, black skinny leg pants and a coral/peachy cardigan I buttoned all the way up as a shirt. All I needed to do was put my hair into a hipster bun to complete the look.

 These would also look great with jeans, denim shorts, a flowy skirt with an over-sized shirt/sweater. 

A Shoe Closet for Shoe Love

A girl can only dream to one day own a closet filled with shoes.

Over the past year, I have became a shoe junkie and own way too many pairs. I actually do not have enough space in my home (parent's home) to store these shoes. They are currently in numerous boxes in my bedroom, downstairs shoe rack, downstairs closet, garage and basement. It drives my dad absolutely bonkers that I have shoes everywhere. Also, when I buy a new pair, I have to sneak them into my house so my mother doesn't have a heart attack. I will post a picture of my collection once I have all my shoes organized.

I do plan to take on my very own closet renovation soon, utilizing the space to its maximum capacity (for the sake of my shoes). I love to do handy man work - I actually prefer it over cooking or doing the laundry.. BORING! My plan is to turn the entire back wall of my closet into stacked shelves so I can neatly organize my shoes. The side wall, I plan to put in 2 poles, one on top and one on the bottom, evenly spaced so I can hang pants, shirts and dresses. I have also found the perfect shelving unit at Home Depot and have yet to purchase it. I have searched high and low at Ikea but was unable to find something to properly suit my closet. 

While browsing the net, looking for potential closet ideas, I came across these celebrity closets and was in total awe..

 Christina Aguilera - really, a ladder to reach more shoes? It is also pink, how beautiful.

 Mariah Carey

 Kimora Lee - Her quote could not be anymore perfect!

Paula Abdul - This diva not only has a huge closet, but check out her organization from accessories to shoes to clothes.

Wowie!! Fingers crossed that one day I will own something at least a fraction of that size.
