Saturday in Concord MA

This past weekend we had fabulous weather in Massachusetts. My Mom came up to visit and I took her shopping in Concord. Here are some of our pictures.

We strolled in and out of boutiques, trying on jewelry and scarves, purchasing trinkets and looking at all the fine details of some of the fancier clothes. I felt a little funny about taking detailed photos, so I refrained. My Mom snapped pictures from the sidewalk of a few dresses that were in shop windows so I could add them to my inspiration files. We figured that was okay since anyone could see that much from the street. There was a historical cemetery with tombstones from the colonial days which we found fascinating. Mom has more pictures. We stopped for salmon wraps at Helens right around six when the stores were closing. The food was yummy and reasonably priced, and the staff were fantastic. I had a nice Saturday with my Mom.

Killer Heels - Why do I TORTURE myself like this?

I love Love LOVE these shoes I bought last weekend. I am almost six feet tall when I wear them! But these shoes were NOT made for walking...





They will spend more time sitting on my desk than on my feet today. At least I will get to admire them...



Compromise??



You know, I really wanted the black thigh high boots, but...


I fear they will give the message that I want to look sexy. I prefer a look of sleek sophistication. I still have not decided against the Farah boot, though. I bought these which I love. They are extremely comfortable and I think they are more office appropriate than the black platform boots.

Thigh High Boots - Yay or Nay?


Bakers Boots

I saw these boots in Bakers over the weekend. So here is my question for the day. Can a woman aged 40+ get away with wearing thigh high boots? Is there a way to give these sexy boots enough sophistication to be worn to the office? What do you think? Yay or Nay?



Inspiration

So I came into work this morning and switched my calendar page to find this:

I'm thinking how cool would it be to make a pair of pumps I already have into boots to match my outfit! And what a nice canvas for embroidery!

Inspired by Project Runway

I love this skinny gold belt that I bought this past summer from Ann Taylor. Now after seeing how Seth Aaron used a belt as a bracelet on Project Runway last week, I love it even more!

Recognize This Shoe?

I knew it the instant I saw it on my calendar this morning. It is the shoe from Sex and The City - the movie. These are the Manolo Blahniks Carrie married Big in!

I really love this calendar...
