Shopping with Miss Jenn

Hello gorgeous!

Ms. Jenn of {Bits of Beauty} filling in today. Now, if you know anything about me, you might be surprised by this: I'm not one for New Years resolutions. However, this year I'm going for it. One of my resolutions? I am cutting down on my shopping dramatically and am selling a whole huge pile of stuff. But, I will allow some splurges... {C'mon, I blog about beautiful things and fashion. I need a little wiggle room!}

First up, shoes. Actually, just booties and flats. I don't own very many flats or boots {2 pairs of each, to be exact.} I have sworn not to buy any shoes over $100 for at least 6 months. I've been lusting after these since they first graced my feet, but they were $148. They are so exquisite, comfortable, and well... just look at them!



Well, they are finally on sale. Yipee! Mine, mine, mine...


Next up, legwear. Leggings and tights of all kinds to wear with dresses and long tunics. I've always been hesitant about this; I've got a big ol' cuban booty and thighs to match. I tried the look last year on a trip to boston and have been incorporating legwear into my looks since. It changes an outfit completely!


Last, hats. Like legwear, this is an outfit changer. I've collected some hats over the years, but have been seeing some really great ones recently. I scored a fabulous cloche at Urban Outfitters for $9 the other day. This one above is more than $9, but definitely worth the money in my book.

So, any suggestions of where to get some quality flats, hats, or legwear? Do you have a favorite way of freshening up an outfit? Share!

I agree, flats are an absolute must. I have found great quality in Tory Burch's Reva flat (but they are spendy) or Sue London's ballet flats (simple and can be found in almost any color you desire. Am looking forward to checking out your blog. Great post!

LOVE that hat. I don't usually go for hats, but that one is so glamorous, I don't know if I could resist...And I can see why you're lusting after those flats. So lovely and flats are always so sensible. Even when they're expensive.

I'm definitely a fan of the flats and legwear. My hair is entirely too thick to wear hats, unless they are unusually large, but that little red hat is cute!

The flats would have even been worth the full price splurge! They're gorgeous!

Great picks. In all this rainy weather, I've been sporting a hat on a daily basis but nothing as beautiful as your choice.

Love this guest post! Those flats are gorgeous! I am like you- I only own a few pairs, but when the few come along that are comfortable and cute they are hard to pass up! XOXO
