march booties

these booties are black leather with patent leather accents at the toe and heel of 3 ½" heels. these booties look familiar to you because i have them in chalk or cement. the black pair, however, is more versatile. i found that i could only wear the chalk ones with similar tights. both booties look sexy with jeans. i like that i can just slip them on and off (no zippers!). i love wearing them with dresses or skirts.

new job!

today, i accepted a job offer. after nearly 5 years in my current position, i am leaving colleagues, students and great friends. i've been very happy there but i feel it's time to move on. especially when the opportunity is too great to pass over.

the thought of leaving truly saddens me. i hope the reality will be better. wish me luck!

february black boots

last year, i instilled a new rule/resolution. it was the anything but black rule. and yet, i still purchased 3 pairs of black shoes and boots. not bad out of 16 pairs purchased in 2008, right? um, right.

since square-toed shoes have gone out of style, i've been reduced to replacing at least a couple pairs. these round-toed ankle boots with 3-inch stiletto heels are not only sexy and classic but also surprisingly comfortable. i took these dancing with me the other night at popscene. and walking around all day today. they are absolutely fabulous!
