Hee, hee *rubs my cheek from Angie's pinch* </p> <p>Sarah, I wore them in a casual outfit with jeans last night, and loved 'em all over again. They're so versatile.</p> <p>Rosie, you should give them a try. They're really comfortable and pretty. </p> <p>Taylor, I am so in love with the bag, it's embarrassing. Turquoise is one of my favorite colors, so I am delighted it's in this summer and there are so many options for it. </p> <p>Tarzy, Sparky just posted about the sale on Planet Earth, check them out there!</p> <p>Laura, I don't know why I didn't buy them months ago when we saw them. I should trust my instincts more!</p> <p>Sparky, thanks for sharing the sale! Hope you enjoy yours as much as much as I do mine!</p> <p>Katie, sometimes it is worth buying a shoe at the end of the season and then having ready to go the next year. I did that with my La Canadienne patent rainboots and I did not regret it. They got so much wear I felt like I had hit the boot jackpot! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-accessory-purchases-sandals-and-purse#post-164034 Sun, 30 May 2010 07:47:27 +0000 Katiepea 164034@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow Kristen, what fabulous accessories!</p> <p>I must admit that I am suffering extreme shoe envy! I spent all of my last summer looking for a pair of shoes, EXACTLY like your wedges and could never find them! I am so impressed to see that what I imagined as a perfect pair of summer wedges does actually exist! Now, if the shoe god's will just make them available here for me next summer all will be perfect.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-accessory-purchases-sandals-and-purse#post-163979 Sun, 30 May 2010 05:21:04 +0000 Sparky 163979@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tarzy (or anyone else), if you're interested, planetshoes.com has a 20% off sale on sandals going on right now, and they have the Laguna Reefs. Ask me how I know . . . The code is sandal20. If you go through ebates, you can get 7.5% cash back for more savings.</p> <p>This is so funny. A few weeks ago I pored over sandals on Zappos and the Laguna Reefs were my first choice. I've been looking for a discount till yesterday. It's neat to see that others like those sandals here too!</p> <p>Kristen, what great new accessories to greet the summer with! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-accessory-purchases-sandals-and-purse#post-163502 Fri, 28 May 2010 23:53:11 +0000 Laura 163502@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look so happy in those Lagunas -- see, it was love at first sight! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-accessory-purchases-sandals-and-purse#post-163459 Fri, 28 May 2010 21:47:31 +0000 tarzy 163459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great!

What perfect summer items. I almost tried on the Lagunas yesterday, too, but decided I needed to really look at my shoes first! They are so flattering on both of you ladies. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-accessory-purchases-sandals-and-purse#post-163361 Fri, 28 May 2010 16:30:59 +0000 Angie 163361@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous accessories!

Sounds like you got the gist of them. </p> <p>Queenie, I have Sarah to thank for the Clarks. I unapologetically stole the idea from her! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-accessory-purchases-sandals-and-purse#post-163249 Fri, 28 May 2010 12:48:44 +0000 Queen Mum 163249@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>oh Michelle... words cannot describe the fabness of Kristen's shoe collection. Those Clark's look great on you Kristen and the bag is fab too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-accessory-purchases-sandals-and-purse#post-163238 Fri, 28 May 2010 11:47:29 +0000 Michelle 163238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not gonna lie...even without seeing them, I know I'd be envious of both your shoe and bag collection!! Glad you have a few successful new additions! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-accessory-purchases-sandals-and-purse#post-163233 Fri, 28 May 2010 10:58:48 +0000 Kristen 163233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Besides the Aquatalia Jacks spring boots, I have recently purchased my two summer sandals and an awesome summer bag (or purse, as I instinctively call it). I ended up returning the Franco Sarto Tasers despite the overwhelming love for them here and on the blog; I just didn't like that particular nude shade or the thickness of the straps that high up my ankle, and Hubby agreed. I gave them a go with just about every outfit, but they never worked. </p> <p>Instead, I finally got the Clarks Laguna Reefs that I had been admiring on Sarah for the last month. LOVE them. Their more delicate straps appeal to my taste better, and the fit and height and comfort are exactly in my wheelhouse. I was wearing them the very next day after I purchased them, which I only ever do with shoes I worship. </p> <p><a href="http://lowfatdressing.blogspot.com/2010/05/tuesday-wednesday-one-outfit-spurs-on.html" rel="nofollow">http://lowfatdressing.blogspot.....rs-on.html</a></p> <p>Or just look at the shoes here:<br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kudzuplanet/4643752512/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/k.....643752512/</a><br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kudzuplanet/464313" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/kudzuplanet/464313</a><br /> (Ignore the extra room at the toe; I was pressing my foot funny on the desk. They fit fine.)</p> <p>I also bought a pair of gladiators on recommendation from Barking Dog Shoes (great site for people with fussy feet), and I will second the rec: they are insanely comfortable, and definitely work as an all-day shoe. I wore them on my recent trip to Detroit where I was walking all day and night and they held up great. </p> <p>The last accessory purchase was a new summer bag also from Clarks; they are now selling the Tignanello brand, which I really like. The leather is always so soft and the styles are just tasteful and just interesting enough for me. Plus, there are outside pockets for my cell phones! (Yes, I have two, for work and for home.) I've been looking for a light-colored bag, grey if I could find it, and this just sang to me. I say it's a dove grey with blue undertones, but Hubby thinks it's a pale blue. Either way, we both think it's gorgeous! (And it was on sale.)</p> <p><a href="http://lowfatdressing.blogspot.com/2010/05/thursday-accessory-sweepstakes.html" rel="nofollow">http://lowfatdressing.blogspot.....takes.html</a></p> <p>Or the Flickr photos:<br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kudzuplanet/4645543761/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/k.....645543761/</a><br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kudzuplanet/4645543985/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/k.....645543985/</a></p> <p>P.S.
