Adrien: It's Pouring and Boring.

When I woke up this morning it was pouring down rain and pitch black and I was all, "HELL NO." Then I had to get dressed under this dark cloud and put on coat and venture out:

Thus, the outfit is really not very exciting, just my usual pencil skirt/long sleeved top/cardigan combo. You'll have to take my word for it. But, like Marianne's outfit, it's really all about the shoes day. I couldn't go head-to-toe boring so I pulled out the big guns. My Frye Liv t-straps:

I missed buying these when they were originally available because, a) I bought the more-wearable Lisa t-straps instead and b) they were really damn expensive. And tall. Really, really tall. But! I created a "saved search" on eBay hoping that one day a pair in my size would surface. Eventually this happened and I sniped some poor newbie who didn't understand how a proxy bid worked. (insert evil laugh.) Now, they are mine, all mine!




Oooh.

They look blue-ish black but are actually dark purple. And surprisingly, they are really comfortable, thanks to the covered platform. Not an everyday shoe, but one of my favorites.
