The Sole of the matter

My New Flats
Of course I’d be a liar if I told you that I didn't love heels.  Whether it’s stilettos, platforms or my go to wedges, I've fallen hard for sky high footwear.  Like any Sex and the City fan, I have this recurring  dream of myself  hitting  the sidewalks of  New York City in the baddest stilettos daily, as the soundtrack in my head blares Empire State of Mind while my cute twist out is blowing in the wind.  Unfortunately that dream will have to remain a dream for the time being.  Well at least the stilettos part.   Why you ask?  For starters my poor soles simply wouldn't make it past noon if I tried that in reality.  I do entirely too much walking for that to go down. If I’m not walking to the subway, I’m walking to the bus stop if not there then it's to the grocery store.  Point made, Shakiyla's feet are always on the move.   With all that constant feet movement I need footwear that won’t have my footsies screaming in agony from foot pains. You know the kind of foot pain where you’d rather walk barefoot on the germ crawling concrete than to take another step in your stunning heels.  Ay yay yay the memories.   So to rule out all that foot aching jazz all together I opt for flats sometimes.  There is such a wide variety when it comes to flats.  We can choose from different patterns, textures and even different shapes.  With all these exciting options at our reach there’s no worries were sacrificing style for comfort. Take a peek at a few cute flat options below. 




How often do you wear flats?

Thrifted Inspiration

Hola ladies and gents.  It's been quite some time since I posted an outfit post.  I'd love to say that my hiatus stems from  me being super busy and yadda yadda.  That would make little ol me seem so important.  Truth is I have been so lazy these days.  I blame it on these winter months leaving me on most nights crawled up on my couch channel surfing. (Sigh) well enough about that.  On to business.

As some of you may know I am always excited to share my thrifted finds and this time is no different.  I recently scored this pleated skirt and light blue shirt on one of my thrifting escapades.  Both pieces came in  are you ready....under ten dollars. Go me (doing cabbage patch).  Yes thrifted goal mines always calls for a little celebration and an old school dance or two. LOL  So what have you guys thrifted lately?
