I've only worn them twice... Glitter is a tough thing to wear wear. The first time, I wore them to work, where everyone agreed that they looked like stripper shoes The other time was out to dinner and a show with my boyfriend and a few friends, where the reviews were positive. I guess they just aren't appropriate for work... And to everyone else: THANK YOU! What an amazing response to my first WIW. With so much encouragement, I can see how it gets easier and easier to do this Heather on "My First WIW- AKA: Taking pictures of yourself is HARD!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-aka-taking-picture-of-yourself-is-hard#post-444661 Fri, 14 Oct 2011 20:19:56 +0000 Heather 444661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ KTK!!!

I'm trying to be a little more bold in my pairings. Normally I'd wear read shoes, but these ALDO pumps have been lonely in my closet. The first photo is dark, but shows off the silhouette of this outfit well. The second photo highlights the shoes, but is a little blurry... I promise, I'll get better at self portraits! Blouse: A cheapo from Ross Pencil skirt: Ellen Tracy, a hand me down from my Mom :-) My favorite shoes in the whole wide world: Aldo Accessories: Goodwill, Forever21 and gifted. Thanks for looking!
