Sam Edelman Lisle Booties - Olive

Say hello to one of my absolute favorite pairs of shoes. Hello shoes.

Everything about the Sam Edelman Lisle bootie is perfect, except that the zipper clinks when you walk and I have yet to find a way to make it not happen (that actually doesn't bother me too much). I'm so obsessed with them that I own FOUR pairs. One in tan, one in black, one in olive (my favorite!), and wine (a very close second). Excessive? No. Why not? BECAUSE THEY ARE EVERYTHING.

If you've been reading this here blog or watching my YouTube videos for any amount of time, I'm sure you've seen these booties pop up in countless outfits... but I had felt the need to dedicate a whole post to them because they are being sold for a ridiculous deal right now and everyone and their mom needs to own them.

No seriously, my mom has a pair too.

What I Wore: 12.24.12

Wore this to a family holiday party and well, let's just say my dad didn't GET my outfit. It's "office girl meets xena warrior princess meets cat lady", duh. It looks ridiculous, and that's what I love about it. Interestingly enough, he thought the necklace was the worst component -- and to think, I was expecting the pants to top his list! Hah! That necklace is my current favorite and was a real steal at Zara, just about $29. Don't be talking trash on my necklace. And I'm not taking any fashion advice from a guy who loves Ireland so much he wears green leather tennis shoes 365 days a year! Humpfh!

This Silence & Noise Boyfriend blazer is a closet necessity and thankfully on sale right now at UO -- oh, you'll thank me.

If you're a little on the wacky side too, these Topshop "Winter Floral" pants are also on sale on Nordstrom's site.

What I Wore: 11.16.12 // Sam Edelman 'Lisle' Bootie

I should really quit it with these outfit posts because I dress too basic in day-to-day life. Booorang. A shirt, some pants, and some boots! What a novel idea! Copyright that! It's never been done before! Though, I actually remember just being so angsty about my clothes that day and hating everything I put on, so I should be happy enough that I look half okay. But really, this post is because I just wanted to show off my new western-ish booties with rose gold zips. Ta-da! They clang when I walk, instant spurs! (I actually find that really annoying and a con for these shoes -- so take note, potential buyers.)

On this day I went to collect spring water in St. Helena with my mom. Total hippie agenda when I'm back home in CA. I know. However, to entice me to come with she did have to throw in a trip to the Napa outlets. We shopped the Gap and J.Crew outlets and I found lots of stuff I've had on my wishlist at the CCO -- Bobbi Brown Foundation in 00 and a Pot Rouge, MAC lipstick and a gel liner, AND dun dun dun.... Tom Ford lipsticks! HELLO!

I'm wearing a recent purchase from the LF 60% sale (my mom's sweater technically, I picked it out for her) and my new obsession, the American Apparel Chiffon Double-Layered Full Length Skirt. Likewise, I couldn't help but put on my new MAC Mattene Lipstick in Eden Rouge straight away, so here's what I ended up wearing when the day's adventures were said and done.
