Travel Shoes!


These are the shoes I ended up getting. They're made by Clark's. Initially I got some cute Cole Haan shoes with Nike Air technology, thinking they would bring me the most comfort, but then I tried these on and I was blown away.

I wanted to get some super comfy shoes because when we were in Paris I wore crappy Ann Taylor flats and I wanted to end my life by the second day.

I'll be walking several miles a day around Austin (next week) and Washington D.C. (in May) with a group of people and we have to dress professional, meet with politicians and represent Good ol' Fort Bend County. I don't know who we're meeting in D.C., but we'll be meeting with Texas Governor Rick Perry next Tuesday.

.. and i think I'm done posting about shoes for awhile.

SoundClip directs sound from iPhone toward you to increase the clarity and volume for movies and music.

A tuned conical deflection chamber designed to make the audio from your iPhone clearer and also slightly louder. Sound waves are reflected toward you, instead of away, so you feel more involved in your game, movie, or music.

.. and for less than $8. Loves it.

Sighs, Martha Stewart and her team of perfectionists have done it again..... have a lovely weekend. Don't believe the HYPE. Just enjoy your loved ones. xoxo

As Valentine's Day approaches (and three February birthdays in my immediate family), I have cupcakes on the brain.

The hand-blown cupcake stand from fredflare.com in two words or less...

precious, useless

I still want it!

NEED HELP! Shoe Advice!


Last weekend was my mama's birthday! I wore heels for six hours straight and am still paying the price for it! My feet STILL HURT.

I'm just coming to realize that all my shoes are cheap, archless and terrible for me. I'm committed to finding some ergonomic, comfortable shoes. There's Sofft and Naturalizer...looking kind of similar. But, I really fell in love with these Clarks, although a way too casual for my purposes.

I'm going to Austin and DC in the next few months for a thing and have to dress up and walk around the city. Yikes. I have yet to find cute, comfortable heels under $200. Do they exist? Please tell me!
