Painterly Purples

June 22nd, 2009 · 6 Comments

This is a fun outfit I put together, based on my new Liz Claiborne purse.  It was only $5 on clearance & I couldn’t resist the mix of berries & purples plus the grey patent strap.

Once I got it home I noticed how well it blended with this scarf I found at Target:

I had a different pair of shoes picked out but changed to these new ones when I realized how well they went with the combo.

These are 1/2 size too big but they were $3 on clearance at Marshalls.  Who could pass that up?  Seriously?  They’re the brand Wanted.   I’ve never heard of the brand & don’t think it’s very high end but I rather like them & feel they are well made regardless.

Here’s a question: Have you ever been pleasantly surprised when you bought a pair of shoes because they were inexpensive & then they became a favorite pair?

    Great combo! Yeah I find the shoes I buy from Target end up being my faves, until they literally fall to pieces through constant wear.

    Cute shoes! They look like they hurt though, but cute!

    @Rachael – that’s the best! Gotta love Target!

    @Annie – just a little – OK, a lot. They rub my heels cuz they’re too big.

    @Diana – thanks! Found it on clearance at Target, of course.

    OMG those shoes are bad. asssss. Have you tried putting some gel inserts (Dr. Scholls has slimline ones for women’s shoes) in them? That usually does the trick if they’re a bit too big, and will probably make them more comfortable too.
