Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday. We are halfway through another wonderful week and so we have two new shoe contenders, but before we begin, let’s take a look at last week’s You Choose The Shoes winners.
Were they your choice?
Now the shoes that I picked for this week are similar in print but different in style and I wanted them to compete with the pattern in my dress, take a look:
animal print Jessica Simpson’s peep toe pumps from a consignment shop
-vs-
The dress was thrifted from Goodwill and like I said, I didn’t want to go with a solid color pump, so I stepped outside of the box with the animal print. What do you think – good choice or not?
Open toe versus closed toe, and they are both equally comfortable.
The extra long beaded necklace was a purchase from Rugged Wearhouse, which is my favorite store for costume jewelry.
Which Shoes Do You Choose?
Will it be Jessica Simpson
or
Christian Sirano?
What are your thoughts on mixing patterns, especially with animal prints.
Guess what, I was featured by Whitney at her Personal Style Linkup, so when you get a chance come on over and check it out!

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday. Thank you all who voted in last week’s “You Choose The Shoes” contest. Although both pairs were great for that outfit, there was one clear winner, the well worn Glo Wedges from Kmart!
This week’s contenders are also well worn closet staples, I don’t even remember from where I purchased the SRO Red Mule Sandals.
SRO Venice Red Mules Sandals
Black Mossimo Black Sandals from Target
This comfy geometric gauze dress was thrifted from Goodwill and is perfect to wear to work or running errands on the weekend.
These Red Mules matches the patio furniture cushions but the nail polishes are definitely clashing – what do you think?
So which pair do you choose?
Black Mossimo Sandals
– or –
Venice Red Sandals?
Today I’m hanging out with Whitney at her Personal Style LinkUp so come on over and check it out.
This evening I will be teaching another Blogging class for The Money School of Delaware (Monetizing Your Blog) so have a great day and we’ll chat tomorrow!

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday. Although this is a short work week due to the Memorial Day holiday, it seems like it’s dragging by, I guess it’s a sign of having too much fun. Now is the time to get back into a normal routine and cut back on the over eating and drinking. How about you, did you over indulge during the weekend?
Thank you all for your votes, and without further adieu the winner of Week 5 were the thrifted
Enzo Angiolini’s
This week’s contenders are a pair of well-worn Cognac color wedges from Kmart or a pair of never been worn multi-color wedges from Citi Trends.
On this casual Friday I chose to wear a pair of color skinny jeans with a multi-colored top which was thrifted from Goodwill.

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday!
Thank you all for voting last week and just as predicted it was a hard choice, but the winners were the
Payless Pumps!
One pair in this week’s contest is an entry into the Credit Card Insiders Splurge vs Save Campaign.
You all know that as much as I love shoes, I find it very difficult if not impossible to spend a lot of money on them, which is why I love to thrift or pay less!
So without further adieu here are this week’s choices:
Avon Black & White Forever Pumps
or
Enzo Angiolini Black Pumps
The black and white dress was purchased last summer on clearance for only $8.00 at JCPenney. Another way to save is to wait until the end of a retail season to buy clothes, which is usually a month or so before the end of the actual season so you’ll have plenty of time to wear them.
I added pops of color to the classic black and white combination with an orange necklace thrifted new from Goodwill, orange watch from Avon and a multi-color bracelet.
These black patent leather Enzo Angiolini pumps which I had once seen online for $59.99 at Nordstrom were thrifted from The Salvation Army for only $14.99, so they definitely were a Save vs a Splurge purchase!
Okay which shoes do you choose?
Today, I will be linking up with Whitney at her Personal Style Linkup and Shana at Thrifters Anonymous. Have a great day and we’ll chat tomorrow.

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday!
This week’s “You Choose The Shoes” may be a little bit more difficult because the shoes are similar in pattern and style, however, there can be only be one winner so I am really counting on you for this one.
Oh wait a minute, before we begin, here is the winner from last week’s challenge:
Thank you all for participating.
Okay, this week’s challenge is between Payless -vs- Ross
Because the dress is a simple purple sheath purchased from JCPenney, I knew it needed to be punched up with pops of color, so I added this necklace from Avon/Mark – what do you think?
Last season I wanted these pumps so badly that I drove to two Payless stores to get them. Thankfully, the Exton store called others and they found a pair in my size at the Concord Mall which is on my way home.
Okay, which ones do you choose?
You can see they are similar in color and pattern, but the heels on the Payless shoes are pink and the ones from Ross are gray. Can’t decide, take one more look then send me your choice.
Payless
Ross
BTW, hubby is now my photographer, which is why I may be smiling more. At first he made me nervous because he would give me these looks when I’d say, “nope, not right, let’s do it again“. However, I do think that he is enjoying himself but I have to watch him, otherwise, he’s focusing the camera on other parts of my body if you know what I mean!
I’m heading over to visit The Pleated Poppy for WIWW!

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday!
The winner of last week’s “You Choose The Shoes”
Gray Nine West
The choices for this week are either the Dollhouse Peep-Toe Wedge shoes from Ross or the L.e.i. studded sandals from Walmart.
The skirt was purchased from Old Navy and the top was a Mother’s Day gift from my sons years ago from J.C. Penney. It was actually the first time they made a purchase without any assistance from hubby, and I think they did a great job.
It was a little chilly last week so I wore this light gray cardigan purchased from Boscov’s.
Okay, are you ready to choose?
Which pair complimented the outfit better?
This week’s winner will be announced in next week’s post – thank you all for participating in this fun feature!

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday!
Fioni Pumps from Kmart!
I don’t know about you, but I am having such a blast with this new feature, “You Choose The Shoes“. It’s like having a bunch of friends hang out in my closet helping to chose just the right shoes for an outfit – thank you all!
This week’s choices are either Coconut wedges from Marshall’s or Nine West wedges thrifted from Goodwill.
You Choose the Shoes!
The outfit is a thrifted top from GW Boutique and a cream color ShapeFX skirt from Spiegel Outlet
I think these Nine West shoes are a perfect match in their color and patent leather material for this top. What do you think?
Necklace and Earrings are from the product review that I did for Majestical Jewelry (click here).
These cutout wedges were purchased several seasons ago from Marshall’s and were quite popular. I remember seeing them posted by several fashion bloggers.
Are you ready to choose the shoes?
Which pair did you choose? Personally, I would prefer neither because the feeling of fresh cut grass between my toes feels much better!

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day!
The winner of last week’s “You Choose the Shoe” was the
Polka Dot Pumps from DSW!
Now it’s week 2 so it’s time for you to choose this week’s shoe, and no, I haven’t gotten a pedicure yet so don’t look too hard!
Will it be the blue Fioni Pumps from Kmart
or
Grey Pump from Ross Dress for Less?
Both the top and skirt has been in my closet for such a long time that I can’t remember where purchased. I think the bracelet set was purchased either at Rugged Wearhouse or Burlington Coat Factory.
Have you decided yet?
Look down at the shoes…
