What to wear for Memorial Day

Keep a little spring in your step during the holiday weekend by wearing colorful shoes.

A red, white, and blue color scheme is just as predictable for memorial day as it is for independence day but that is because it is patriotic and works! You cannot go wrong with these colors. But if you want to change it up, go monochromatic this year. Need to wear less? You can change my red nails, white purse, and blue shoes for red lips, white bikini, and blue skies.

This dress is extremely comfortable, affordable, and petite friendly. This dress is spacey throughout the bust so it works well to camouflage a fuller chest or accommodate broad shoulders. I did not mind the sleeves so much since they helped protect me from the sun but I am thinking of removing the sleeves.



I hope to one day have a large boutique-style walk in closet where I can display shoes as art. You see, I like the curves of sexy stilettos but I would prefer to display them because I do not like to torture my feet.

How quickly can you walk in heels compared to when you walk in flats?

Here I am caught in flats. Truthfully, I am almost never in stilettos. I like to walk fast and high heels slow me down! Also, if I will be grilling or barbecuing, comfortable shoes are a must for me.

    1. Yes, it reminds me of DVF too but since DVF is so pricey I bought some Old Navy dresses that did the job!

  8. Lovely dress- the pattern is very DVF-like! And the Louboutins are a beautiful color!
    Regarding the question you had about the studs working on leather- I think they will definitely work, as long as the leather is thin enough! They can be quite pesky & a pain to push through material, so as long as you get a thinner leather, the result should be nice!

  20. I can walk faster in heels vs. flats. Odd? Well, I have a very high arch and flats are extremely uncomfortable for me to walk in. I love the gucci bag, I have a similar version in pebble leather, with the gold bamboo rings, it was part of my handbags part II post. Very few people understand what we go through to own these handbags. The miu miu cross body was purchased by my mom in 2001! It was a manbag too so that's prob why you never saw it in real life....

    1. I have heard that from many chic women! I guess I have flat flintstone feet since flats feel better to me, lol. J/k. I must go back through your handbag posts this weekend. I did not give it the attention it deserves yet! <3
