the essence

I don't think it’s a secret that I love to shop. It’s difficult for me to pick favorites but I do love accessories. For one, they can totally change an outfit, plus, if you gain a little weight they don't get too small to wear! I love jewelry, purses, and shoes.

I definitely love shoes. I’ve blogged about them before; I've taken pictures of my feet wearing newly purchased shoes. I could still wear all of my favorites even when I was hugely pregnant (unlike my favorite clothes which still don't all fit!). I’m definitely partial to heels. I’m not sure why, since they make me taller than Ray, but I do love some nice four-inch heels. I think they add a little confidence to my walk.

However, I’ve yet to find a really nice pair of flats that are comfortable. Daniblack shoes has a selection of all different stylish shoes. They have flats, boots, evening wear, and, yes, sandals, among others. Living in Florida, sandals are appropriate year-round and another one of my favorites. These sandals, called Swank, from daniblack shoes are one of my favorites.



I love the heel and the design on the top. I also love the little straps and that the heel isn’t chunky. Check out their site for more designs!
