I had such a crush on these low heeled patterned pumps (Halogen Geneva from Nordstrom) that when my foot slid into them, it was love at first step. I tried to choose between leopard and dalmatian, and I just couldn't do it.

Enter TWO pairs of patterned shoes into my wardrobe! Wow. (Unless I'm remembering incorrectly, my only NON-color blocked patterned shoes are those black tweed flats, which frankly are much more low contrast than these puppies are.)

I can think of a myriad of uses for each pair for work and play. I've been longing to try leopard print pumps with my green chevron striped dress ever since I saw Allie try it on Wardrobe Oxygen. I think pairing my black and white abstract floral cardigan with these little Dalmatian pumps could be a very cute opportunity for pattern mixing. They are quite comfortable on my feet-limited arch support, but a very easy shape and with a stable, low, chunky heel. (I had to size up, though.)

What more can I say? I'm smitten.
