All Hail The Leggings

Spotted these funky fishnets leggings at Sears this weekend when was looking for a bathing suit. They are by Jessica and come in all kinds of patterns, as you can see below. There was also a lacy one that came through even more blurry than thee photos did, so I've left it out of this post...

I really, REALLY need to get good dancing shoes. These might just do... Even though they are not "real" dancing shoes...

Friday Night - Window Shopping

I don't usually go shoe-shopping (or shall I say shoe window shopping?) on Friday. But I did so this Friday becasue of the Fluevog sample sale! These are the shoes I tried yesterday night at the sample sale at Fluevog's. Despite the pinty toes, they are so comfortable, the leather is buttery soft on your skin... Now I can't stop thinking of them!

Trying to make a point...

I'm trying to make a point of Being strong. Being happy. Being beautiful.

This is what I wore today, and I hope my point is clear. I am enjoying life for what it is:
Patent leather kitten heel Mary Janes: Bronx
Fishnets: can't remember the brand...
Wool Coat: The Gap
Umbrella: The Umbrella Shop (hand made)
Little Black Dress: Jessica (I got it from a thrift shop ages ago and it's good as new and valid as ever).
The fabric here, although synthetic I suspect, has the fantastic texture of brushed silk. It's thick and it's fabulous, feels classy and solid). I usually would prefer to pair it with these shoes actually - the suede works better with it than the patent leather. I will tell you more about the suede wedges later, they really deserve a full entry onto themselves!
Here are some photos to give you an idea:

P.s. I was playing lots of dress up today, but decided to go with the patent leather shoes for a practical reason: I went for Salsa dancing tonight, and the wedges could not work for that!
