The Weekend


(Scarf: So old that I can't remember, H&M top/CK shorts/ Cynthia Vincent for Target Wedges)

Nothing special here really. I've been meaning to post about these shoes for a while. These are the Cynthia Vincent Shoes for Target. I actually love the color and height and comfort. The only thing that creeps me out is the velcro. There is a velcro strap across the toe and ankle. You can't tell and they don't look bad but every time I hear that "kkkrrrrwwww" sound when I fasten them, I throw up a little in my mouth. For some reason I associate velcro pants/shoes...anything...with old men. Every pair of velcro sandals I've ever seen are worn with socks by pimp daddies who still think they are cool and wear rings on their pinky fingers!

The velcro isn't enough to make me stop wearing them. The good definitely outweighs the bad, I just don't understand why VELCRO!?!? But who am I, Cynthia Vincent already paid her light bill with my money for these shoes so I guess she knows best:)
Today was a lazy day...hence the scarf on my head for one part of the day and the pink/green fedora for later in the day.
Here is a recap of my day.

1. Bought a hot pink wig (don't ask!)
2. Bought dog food.
3. Read my magazines
4. Test a new hair product
5.....ummmm....yeah...that's all I did all day.

Really? I kind of love velcro, because it reminds me of the shoes you had to wear when you were a little kid, before you could tie your shoelaces.

It's really quite excellent that you paired these super colorful wedges with your white-out outfit. Tres chic!

That sounds like a perfect day. Don't we need days like that every once in a while?

those wedges are so cute. i haven't seen those yet. i loved the cognac ones, but alas, i couldn't walk in them. i never learned how to effectively manage walking in heels. i wonder if there is a support group for me?

I like them even more now that I know they have velcro. I think I associate velcro more with little kids. They remind me of my childhood shoes. I had some awesome shoes as a kid. I still miss my clear rainboots with the jelly bean pattern on them. Love your whole outfit, so summery.
