Blue Suede Shoes

So I have a small fashion haul to show.  I know...I know...this post is a little comical given that my previous post went on and on about how good I have been and how I wouldn't be purchasing anything until my Ontario trip...In my defence, I did got into several stores and only came out with two items...coming in at $47.  Both of these items came from Winners. I don't go to Winners often as my boyfriend has very little patience for shopping.  Winners just isn't a store you can spend less than an hour in.  There are so many racks to look through and it is very time consuming! I went to Winners with my mother in law and was able to take my time.

I was very drawn to this top.  I LOVE the colour. I am pretty certain that I do not currently have this shade of blue in my wardrobe. I don't actually have much blue in my wardrobe period.  This top is very soft and has a lot of stretch to it so it is very comfy.  I am not sure what the brand is...I am currently wearing it and do not feel like taking it off to look at the tag :) It is a nice length. It is long, but not so long that it cuts off my already short legs.  This top is fitted and accentuates my curves, but isn't too clingy. It is a tighter fitting top, but because of the material I feel confident sporting it!

After oooing and aweing over the colour, I was pleasantly surprised to discover that it has the cutest zipper in the back! I thought this was a cute and interesting feature. It kind of gives the top more of an edge and takes a basic top up a notch.  You do not feel the zipper at all when you sit down in chairs which is a bonus! This top looks great as a layering piece as well.  This top was $16.99 and my size is medium. It also came in black and a plum colour.  I liked the plum as well, but I have a lot of purple in my wardrobe. I am wishing I got it in black too since I like the fit so much.  But alas, I must save for my trip!

Keeping with the blue theme...I present you with my first pair of blue suede shoes! Everyone needs a pair of these, particularly Elvis fans. Ok..so they are faux suede, but close enough! These babies are SO comfy. I love the colour and the details...the comfort and look of a moccasin, with some chic details. They really have a lot of give to them and accomodate my wide feet.It is surprising how comfy they are given the very affordable price tag.  These were $24.99 and are in size 8.  They are by a brand called Bamboo. I've never heard of this brand. I looked up this brand online and they have a lot of funky shoes for a very affordable price. I may purchase some more from this brand in the future. Most of their shoes appear to be in the $20-$25 dollar range. They seem to be quite well made too.

 

Here's another angle...obviously multiple angles are necessary. I heart Winners! Hope you enjoyed the post.
