Hello friends…you know what day it is…it’s Hump Day but it’s also “You Choose The Shoes” day!
Last week’s contenders were definitely not in a tight race but the comments for both were coming in fast and furious, however, you know there can only be one winner so congratulations to everyone who voted for….
CARLOS SANTANA’S SEXY SANDALS!!!
I’m expecting this week’s contender’s to be a bit of a challenge only because they both look good with the outfit and are both equally comfortable. So let’s take a look, shall we:
If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram you saw this outfit already but so you know the skirt is from JC Penney and that the top was thrifted from Goodwill. The iPad case and watch believe it or not were purchased from Avon and if you haven’t checked out a catalog lately click here.
The first pair of shoes are xhiliration via Target and were purchased several years ago. I wear them at least 4 times during the summer months because I love the mustard color and they are very comfortable. The second pair were purchased online at Urbanog.com, and were part of a major shoe haul where I ordered more than 5 pairs on the same day (here).
I love the pops of neon colors which was also very popular in the mid to late 80’s.
Okay, it’s time to choose the shoes, will it be the mustard yellow xhiliration wedges from Target
OR
the peach sandals from Urbanog.com?
I can tell this is going to be another tough decision which is why I like having you in my closet!
You choose the shoes, then leave me a comment as to why you chose them. In the meantime I’ll be heading over to see the ladies at the Personal Style Linkup, then I’ll be back to respond to your comments.

Hello friends, I hope all is well in your world and welcome back to another week of “You Choose The Shoes“. Once again, I wish to thank all of you who voted in last week’s contest and in an overwhelming majority the winners were:
JESSICA! I think it was the peep-toe thing that pushed her over the top, sorry Christian, but you were more of a winter shoe anyway. Now on to this week’s contenders, and once again, I chose to step outside of the box with the mixing of patterns but only in one pair.
The pink plaid pumps were purchased a few years ago from Rugged Wearhouse, I remember they also had them in green but only a size 6 was available and that is definitely too small for me!
The Carlos Santana pink sandals were thrifted from Goodwill last winter, which is the best time to thrift summer shoes!
One of my favorite summer sheath dresses is this black and white one because of the design. I have several hanging in my closets and my plan is to do a post on Summer Sheaths, so stay tuned.
The bracelets are also from Rugged Wearhouse, my go-to store for costume jewelry.
Okay, get ready to choose the shoes, will it be the pink sandals thrifted from Goodwill – or –
The pink plaid pumps from Rugged Wearhouse
I can’t wait to read all of your comments.
I’ll be hanging out with the ladies over at Whitney’s Personal Style Linkup, so come on over if you have a chance.

Hello friends and Happy Sunday – be blessed today and always!
What a beautiful day, it’s amazing how good you feel when sunshine bathes your face especially after a long week! I hadn’t been to church in over a month so I was up bright and early this morning even with another dull headache.
Today’s outfit is totally thrifted, sleeveless LBD and Houndstooth blazer from Goodwill and Carlos Santana leather pumps from the Salvation Army.
Happy Veteran’s Day and have a fantabulous afternoon – Smooches!

Hello friends and Happy Tuesday. Today’s outfit is a dress that was previously worn in August, also on a Tuesday (here). Transitioning it from summer to autumn by adding a faux leather jacket and peep toe shoes replaced with leather pumps. The jacket was thrifted from Goodwill and the pumps are Carlos Santana, which I didn’t realize when I found them at The Salvation Army. These pumps are classic, timeless and very comfortable.
If you follow me on Instagram (ablake48) you know that I’m participating in #pinkfor31days, in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. We are wearing pink nail polish for the month of October and I started with Revlon’s Fuchsia Fever. I’ve lost 2 cousins and an aunt to this deadly disease and have 5 cousins who are breast cancer survivors. A co-worker is now fighting her second bout after being in remission for over 10 years! If you are over 40 and haven’t scheduled your annual mammogram yet, please do so today, I’m scheduled for next week.
Have a fantabulous day and don’t forget to schedule your mammogram appointment – Smooches!
