On the Cheap: Seeing Spots

I have a well-documented tendency to wear grey and black. It's not that I dislike color and pattern, but grey is my siren song.  It beckons.  It tempts me with promises of easy outfits and throwing all of my laundry in at the same time (which I do).

However, this weekend I stepped out of my comfort zone:



Yes, leopard print heels.  With bright pink innards!  The Hubs and I were at the outlet mall shopping for work clothes (for him, incidentally) when we walked past a store called Kensie.  I've seen the brand around before, but it's always a tad more than I want to pay.

But not at the outlet mall!  These were $30 (marked down from $50), which is how much you'd spend at Payless, anyway--and these are WAY more comfortable than all of my Payless shoes combined.

I wore them yesterday and it is indeed true love.

Have you branched out lately?  Maybe you also got some sassy shoes?

    Congratulations on branching out! I also wear too much gray, and I like to add a bit of color with red shoes.

    Ha! That's great... I am a grey, black and brown girl but I have been trying VERY HARD to add some pops of color with my jewelry or a bright cami. Those shoes are GREAT, and don't you love knowing that hot pink is inside?

    aah, I have taught you well, Grasshopper! What is gray? That's right, the color of comfort!!!

    It truly IS the color of comfort. And easier to wash than black, because if it fades, nobody can tell.
