Indigo Rose Design Giveaway Winner, Lace Dress, Balenciaga Work

Thank you everyone who entered the Indigo Rose Design jewelry giveaway :)

The winner is: Katie S!

Congrats Katie! Hope you pick a fantastic item for your prize!



It was cold today, so although I'm not a fan of tights and peeptoes....I wore them anyway! And I think I may have looked like a little old lady, haha. I had planned this outfit without the tights but the weather didn't cooperate.

Here's what I wore:
Jacket: Asos Boxy pocket cropped jacket in white
Dress: Asos Midi dress in lace in black (on sale)
Necklace: Freshwater pearls, gifted
Bracelets: the usual plus Indigo Rose Design black leather Swarovski beaded wrap bracelet
Shoes: Nine West "Peggy" black wedge heels (last worn here)
Bag: Balenciaga 2005 Magenta RH work
Crazy unflattering pose in both pics - all my own :P

Very sad that these shoes broke today! I've only worn these wedges a handful of times since I bought them, so a little annoyed that they tore. It may have been the shoe rebelling against being paired with tights ;)  Was difficult to keep my foot in the shoe after it broke, glad I had my backup black flats under my desk at work. Will be returning them to Nine West this week and hoping for a refund.

Hope you all had a better Monday - with no broken shoes! ;)

  1. I managed to ruin one of my Chanel flats, but the shoe maker could repair them. Thank God! Hope your shoe drama will turn out okay too!
