Thank you so much to all of my fabulous followers, you are helping me turn my dreams into a reality!

Want it Wednesday

WOW- have you ever seen anything like these Jeffrey Campbell "Skate" booties?! They are absolutely my Want It item of the week!

These ice skate inspired booties feature a wooden scrolling cutout on the wedge heel. This heel is absolutely mouth-dropping. The bootie features an open toe design and leather body. These Skate booties measure in at 4 3/4" in height with a 2" platform. They are available in Black leather, Nude leather, or White leather.

Although these shoes aren't cheap, ringing in at $200, you get so much for your money- personally, I think that these shoes look like they are much more expensive. These heels will absolutely turn heads everywhere you go and will make any outfit turn from plain to absolutely edgy, unique, and beyond fabulous.

You can purchase the Jeffrey Campbell "Skate" booties at Nordstrom, Karmaloop, or Singer22.
Retail Price: $200

Bass by Rachel Antonoff

If you haven't already spotted this trend, the vintage prep has taken over. What better way to live out this hot preppy vintage trend than through these amazing leather loafers! This line by Rachel Antonoff for Bass features some unique shoe styles that are sure to stand out.

Glee actress Naya Rivera wearing Wendybird loafers

This exclusive Bass line has been seen on tons of celebrities, such as Glee star Naya Rivera who wore these Bass Wendybird loafers to a red carpet event.

The Wendybird is a classic handsewn loafer with beautifully polished leather uppers and outsole. The loafer is styled with two charming hearts that shape the cutout on the instep strap. The two-tone penny loafer has a hand-sewn moccasin construction and a breathable, cushioned footbed ensure all-day comfort.

Red/White

Karikole/White

Black/White

I purchased my pair of Wendybird loafers in Karikole (brown) leather with white, but they are also available in both Red/White and Black/White.  These shoes are just so adorable and I love them! How couldn't you?!

 

 Fit guide: they fit a bit large, so I would recommend ordering these specific loafers in 1/2 size smaller. Also, they are made of all leather so they will stretch a bit over time, so they should be a bit snug to start.

You can purchase the Bass by Rachel Antonoff Wendybird loafer at Urban Outfitters, Nordstrom, and on the Bass shoes website.

Longchamp Gatsby Exotic Purse

I had to write a blog post to show off my newest splurge, the Longchamp Gatsby Exotic Top Handle! This is my first ever purchase from the French brand Longchamp, although I am very familiar with the brand and their timeless designs.

Longchamp's Gatsby line has received a plethora of positive press by fashionistas and celebrities, and was even seen on the fashion lust-worthy show, Gossip Girl! As stated by Longchamp "This line was designed with a dandy spirit in mind for women with a dual personality, androgynous with a strong character. The Great Gatsby, today and tomorrow!"

I purchased my exotic Longchamp purse in powder pink, but it is available in lots of fun and fresh colors. Some of my other favorite shades include fuschia and emerald green.

The Gatsby Exotic Top Handle purse features a timeless satchel design with a structured top frame and removable shoulder strap. The construction is snake-embossed cowhide, finished with a beautiful Longchamp logo turnlock. The exact dimensions measure in at 12½"W X 9½"H X 6¼"D.

This Gatsby purse features a highly recognizable front zipper design that is crafted with exquisite technique. The exotic snakeskin is so beautiful and intricate, adding that extra bit of luxury to the purse.

I absolutely adore the exterior of this timeless purse, but I just can't get enough of the amazing interior: classic with a subtle contemporary twist. The fully lined interior features a grey and light pink animal print.

I am so beyond pleased with the high level of quality and craftsmanship in this purse and would recommend it to any fashionista looking for a fashion forward yet classic and sophisticated purse.

You can purchase this exquisite Longchamp Gatsby Exotic Top Handle purse at www.Longchamp.com
