Practicality is Overrated

Good morning, my little happy Monday...I'm home, even though I'm not going to be in this version of home for much longer...needless to say to be greeted by my husband and pup at the airport is proof that home is really where they are, anyway. So happy to be back with them...

But on another note, I've been buying up boots for the winter as my new home will be a good bit colder than I am seven years used to. And since I was traumatized by my apartment shopping experience (or my feet were), I've been buying some boots that are a bit more practical- a sandwashed gray leather Italian pair that skews moon boot and feel like slippers, a pair of Kork Ease neutral leather campus type boots that feel cloudlike as well, and a pair of Nine West that are high and black and leather, but with a decidedly low heel. I'm just in the mood for comfort and I can't help myself.

But then I spot these little numbers by Bruno Frisoni for Roger Vivier for spring- I MEAN.

This little shoe is called "black swan" (naturally) and is one of the most delicately sexy yet tough sandal I have ever seen. I have always been feather obsessed, and I can see rocking these shoes with everything from skinny Alex Wang tube dresses to cropped cigarette pants to a trench coat with something skimpy underneath, and of course, bare legs. I'm in LOVE. And now I remember why practical is just so blah. I'd rather be a black swan than an ugly duckling any day, wouldn't you??? Of course you would not wear these every day, but then again, maybe you would...

C'est tout. I wanted to share these as they're gorgeous, and it appears you can buy them on that new trunk show site Moda Operandi if you sign up- I just can't seem to figure out how, which is probably for the best. Cause that's what's up this not practical but beautiful Monday back in the 'ole MIA. XO
