Here’s what I wore to a small dinner party tonight:
Top- Thrifted, no label. Formerly pewter, I dyed it
Skirt - Adrienne Vittadini Studio via Marshalls
Earrings -gomeagan.etsy.com, two years ago
Belt – Calvin Klein via Savers
Shoes – Kenneth Cole Reaction, thrifted
Not a major triumph. A tighter belt would have helped. I’d hoped to pull off a non-sequitur shoe, but I didn’t realize how shabby these looked. Curses! Looks like they’re demoted to casual events. UPDATE: The velvet hasn’t worn off the sides after all, they only LOOK pale because the material reflects light. Whew!
I’ve given up high heels, see, but still occasionally need dress shoes. Nothing says “party!” like mauve velvet shoes with pointy, bejeweled toes. I hate to see these fall apart.
Seen any gorgeous, vegan-friendly, nearly-flat shoes lately? Rhinestones optional.
