miss. match

sometime not too long ago, i got into the habit of matching my shoes to my bag.  i was working a lot, my work events were stacked daily, and i just did not have the energy to put together outfits.

i had a couple pairs of shoes and bags that went together, and i just revolved my outfits around them. it made my life so much easier, and i looked polished even when i felt completely frazzled.

over time, the habit stuck and most of my shoes and bags now have accompanying pairs.  this is my latest pairing:

the jeweled clutch is prada from a couple seasons ago.  it belonged to my mother who passed it down to me upon realizing that i wear a lot of beiges and browns.  i love everything about this clutch from the oversized minimal shape to the glimmering jewels in the front that add just enough sparkle that even works for day.

the heels are by halogen, and they are really comfortable.  the wide straps don't dig into your feet, and the chunky heel feels more substantial than a skinny stiletto. if you like the look of the shoe but prefer a wedge, look no further than steve madden.
