A Knitted Story
I have been a bit obsessed with shoes lately. I mean, I have always love shoes but lately it just gotten really troublesome. Perhaps it’s a new season with all the new inventories tempting me everywhere I turn or the additional shoe space tempting me to add more. Whatever it is, these Ivanka babes with its velvety soft suede, metallic shine and adjustable front crisscross straps was a pair I know will get a ton of love.

I live in the San Francisco bay area and if you ever visit this place you’d know the weather is a bit bi-polar. It can be hot one day in one city and cold in another. Therefore, I have learned to adapt to the unpredictable weather with the use of my trusted cozy knitted friend. The sweater. Whether it is over-sized, tight, long or cropped, it keeps me cozy enough for the cooler nights yet isn’t too thick for the warmer days. Of course, I also love a good sweater that I can throw on over anything.
Speaking of weather, my heart goes out to everyone who has been affected by the devastation of Hurricane Sandy. I cannot imagine how terrifying everything must be and I just want you to know you are in my thoughts and prayers.
While the storm has passed, there are still millions without electricity, food, water and shelter. Please watch out for our neighbors as well as older people and single parents with young children who might need help and please, please don’t abandon your pets.
LOVE those shoes!!!

the knit is so cozy looking, but the whole outfit looks so elegant!
Agreed with everyone, I love this look!
I totally agree with you that in this more-often-than-not on/off Bay Area weather, that getting dressed appropriately for the climate can be a bit tricky. I’m also a fan of cute sweaters or knitwear over shorts and skirts, so this is a really cute look! :) AND THOSE SHOES. Loving the gold thrice-strap detail… so utterly gorgeous!
