Express Sequin Short: Part Deux

Okay, I did it. I bought the Express Sequin Short I blogged about last week. I was trying to decide between the short and a pair of sequin leggings. Ultimately the short won out because I decided the leggings were just too much sequin. Who knew there was such a thing!?!

Now my dilemma: What do I wear with the short? I’m definitely putting tights under them. They’re a little too bare for my liking. For the top, I’m thinking perhaps a simple, loose-fitting white t-shirt with a vest and a wide belt. Something very Blake Lively, like this:

I may, instead, pair them with a black button-down shirt, stacks of pearls, colored tights, and a neutral bootie. Either way, I can guarantee I’ll be rockin’ these at a holiday party or two. They’ll be a welcome addition to my cocktail party dress rotation, for sure!

Shoe Website Alert: Victoria’s Secret

Who knew Victoria’s Secret offered such fabulous and affordable shoes? I certainly had no idea! I get the catalog, but I never really bother with it. I always assumed it just contained bras and panties…items I only really purchase on an as needed basis.

But when I received my catalog today, I started flipping through it out of boredom, and what did I find? Well, these gorgeous booties for one:

I love the zipper ruffles, and at only $89, they are practically a steal!

Need more proof of the fantastic shoes that await on the Victoria’s Secret website? Check these out:

v292816

These sequin booties are a perfect way to glam up any outfit.

v289327

Hardware is a major trend this season, and these fit the bill perfectly.

v287400

The stitching on these pumps make them more stylish than the normal pump. They’re perfect for the office.

I feel as though a whole new shoe shopping world has been opened to me. And the site carries other brands, like Guess, Jessica Simpson, Betsey Johnson, and Harajuku Lovers.

So, while I’m not a huge fan of buying shoes online, I’m definitely going to give the site a chance. Now I just need to decide between the zipper booties and the sequin booties. But at less than $100 each, maybe I’ll snag both!
