On a recent impromptu shopping trip I found the most adorable little patent leather Charlotte Russe mary janes for $10 and I fell in love. They even have the big chunky heel that I’ve been lusting after on so many shoes! Unfortunately they have absolutely no tread and I wore them on a slushy day, so I spent the day falling on my ass every time I went outside. Sometimes you gotta suffer for fashion though right?

I’m also looking to challenge myself to try new things stylistically too so I went out on a limb and got a longer skirt than I usually wear. I generally don’t wear anything between floor length and above my knee just because it tends to really shorten my already short self visually. Aaaanyway, I thought this skirt was cute and I actually don’t think I look like a frump monster (which is what I was imagining).

I mean, check how cute these suckers are!!

Thank god that I have such a technologically-savvy guy, I’d never get to do cool stuff like gifs without him!

Well as much as I liked that outfit it isn’t exactly great Friday night bar-wear. So I had to have a little costume change…..

Although,

apparently one of the side effects of starting to drink before having your picture taken is that you can only make weirdo faces.

I love the pailey-esque design on this button ring and who doesn’t love an elephant necklace…

besides possibly someone whose entire family was repeatedly trampled by elephants, I mean.
