I admit it, I have a problem.
Yes, of course I’ve always had a bit of a shoe habit. But lately, it seems it’s gotten harder to resist purchasing shoes that will have limited use.
Surely, I must have been more practical at some point?
I picked up these green and yellow sandals a few years ago. They were on sale, and while I loved them, I initially went home without them.
What would they possibly match?
Still, I couldn’t stop thinking about them. I knew I had to go back — I figured if they had my size in stock, it was meant to be!
Surprisingly, I do get a lot of wear out of them. The colors are subtle, and I actually have a few light green tops that coordinate.
The pink sandals were a no-brainer since they were really cheap at Target. I have quite a few skirts and tops that work well well with them.
(Though, I think I bought the skirts specifically to go with the shoes … but, I really did need more skirts at the time!)
I didn’t buy anything else colorful for a while except for some purple pumps which I needed to go with a dress.
It was a striped dress, predominately purple, but also with some green (so the yellow/green sandals match as well). Since I was wearing the dress for a fall wedding, I wanted a closed toe. The dress has since gotten more use, but I have worn the sandals every other time.
This spring/summer has seen a lot of color!
It started with these cute sneaker flats that I had to have.
They’re the ‘Eleanor’ series by Keds. I liked a few of the prints and decided to purchase the blue owl version.
I do wear a lot of aqua blue, so I wear them a decent amount of time … but I haven’t found a way to coordinate them yet without being a close match.
I love them … so when I found one of the other styles I liked on sale at T.J. Maxx the other day, I couldn’t resist.
I wear a lot of green, too 🙂
I really tried to leave T.J. Maxx with just that one pair, but another impractical purchase was calling out to me.
They were very cute, and very comfortable, but I put them down and walked away. They’d be yet another pair of shoes that will be hard to coordinate.
Or would they?
I had to go back and take them home!
I wore them today, and my feet were very happy!
