THE FLOOR-DROBE DILEMMA
Brad and I quickly snapped these shots between breakfast and splurging at the Apple store last week in the city. Before leaving home prior, I found myself sorting through the contents of my closet with not an idea of what to wear. Perhaps I should start planning my outfit ensemble the night before in order to avoid this mad rush, which more often than not turns my wardrobe into a floor-drobe. But then again, maybe not.
I have discovered however, that my boyfriend jeans have a magical ability to solve the 'what the heck am I going to wear' dilemma. Unfortunately boyfriend jeans can also have the opposite effect of lengthening on my petite 5"6 frame, therefore heels are always a must (unless I'm lazing about at home of course). While I was determined to wear said jeans that have appeared many a time here on Lion in the Wild, running all over town in super high stilettos isn't exactly practical. For such situations, it is highly recommended that you invest in a pair of the comfiest chic heels you can find (I scored my Wittner beauty's for a ridiculous bargain not so long ago). And while I could have easily trekked even further wearing these heels, later that night I was glad I didn't after locating two cringe-worthy blisters on both big toes (ouch!). So, I ask, was it worth it? Hell-to-the-yes!
PS. Brad and I finally saw The Great Gatsby at the cinema early last week, and while I've heard mixed reviews, I completely and utterly fell head-over-heels for the movie. I won't be surprised if it picks up a few Oscars, especially for Leonardo DeCaprio's depiction of Jay Gatsby (he has been my absolutely favourite actor for some time now). Definitely a must-see flick!
