Just the other day, Sal put up a post about nude shoes. In her post, she commented that while she is developing a love for nude sandals, she does not "love/want/get" nude pumps.
I left her a comment letting her know that as I was reading her post, I was wearing my nude pumps!

By no means do I feel slighted by Sal's preference away from nude pumps, but for me, I love how much longer my legs look with them. Plus, they really do go with everything! I feel that if I'd worn blak or brown shoes with this outfit, my feet/legs would have ended up looking heavy and stumpy. Add in instead the nude pumps, and I get extra height, better posture, a longer visual leg line, and I still get to click-clack down the hallway.
Will my outfit bring Sal to the nude side?
No, not likely.
But that's what's so wonderful about fashion -- I may never want what you have for myself, but I can appreciate (1) that it looks good on you and (2) that you like it. We don't have to all like everything!
And that's ok.
But Sal, if I did convert you, let me know!
I am also a big fan of the nude pump. (And I own nude wedges, too, which are pretty sweet.) I love this look on you today! And you're right - the nude pump is the perfect choice with this gorgeous, fun dress.
ReplyDeleteThose shoes are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to pop over and thank you for entering the giveaway for my Karma Cards on the Daddy Likey blog! We've got a few sets left if you're still keen (cough, shameless self-promotion, cough) ;)
That dress is so pretty, and I think the nude pumps are perfect with it.
ReplyDeleteThis outfit is spot on! The browns are so good against your skin, the length is perfect, and I just love the necklace nestled inbetween the high collar!
