K is also for KICKS!



Anyone who knows even a little bit knows I am all about a cute pair of shoes.
But really, who am I kidding, what girl isn't!

When I saw there was a shoe party I was so excited! But wait, shoes start with an "S" and I am still on "K" week (yes I am that much of a control freak)
how can I play and make it work with "K" week?

Ha ha ha: KICKS!
I am going to show you my kicks and join in on the shoe (whoops, I mean Kicks) party!

I picked my 4 favorites to share. Before looking at these, remember I am an elementary school teacher. Now go be impressed...or laugh at me and tell me I will have gynormous bunions in about 5 years...

First pair up, I bought these for about $6 at a local clothing store.

I love these green beaded babies, I actually wore them to school today.


Here is a closer picture of the detail on them. Aren't they cute?

If you liked those, you will probably really like these.

Second pair up I actually bought at Walmart, but I think they cost me about $20:

Please don't be a hater.
But they are cute aren't they.
Here is a closer picture of the beading:


Third pair up I got from a local consignment store for $12:

I do wear these to school too, at least once a week, but to be perfectly honest my feet hurt pretty bad by the end of the day though.
But I figure that is just the price I have to pay to have cute shoes.

Finally, my favorite shoes (even though I haven't worn them in a year and a half).
My wedding shoes.
Before I show them to you, you know how the wedding all starts with the dress? Well, it wasn't that way for me. All I cared about was a cute pair of shoes. I wanted a GREAT pair of shoes. I didn't care if I got married in my blue jeans as long as I had a super cute pair of shoes.
That being said, these shoes were a little more than the others...you be the judge if it ($100) was worth it:

Yeah, I thought so too!

I do have some more boring shoes in my closet, but the ones I showed you are my "go to shoes" when I want to have some fun and dress an otherwise boring outfit up just a bit.

Come by The Stories of A to Z and see some other great shoes!

  3. You are my hero being a teacher and wearing heels at work. I could never do so, even being on my feet in normal shoes when working as a teacher is a killer. You rock...

  9. I'm so glad you linked up! I love your beaded shoes mostly because they're blingy, and I'm all about shoe bling, and secondly because I could never cram my fat foot into those pointy babies. You're a lucky thin-footed girl. And those wedding shoes??? LOVE. If they were mine I'd wear them with jeans just because I could.
