Embracing Something New

I have been obsessing over J.Crew's new spring look book (no I am not getting paid to say that), and one of the things that has been pretty prevalent in some of the "looks" is summer shoes with socks. I get a little nervous trying this look, but today I decided to attempt it. I have to say it did feel warmer, and I will probably get better at it once spring actually starts and I can try it with dresses and fun things like that. You know, actual spring attire.

It was noticeably warmer today though, and it was much appreciated. Yes, that means I have really only been subjected to 2 days of winter here in Oklahoma, but honestly, it hurt my soul. Thank goodness for the sun.

So how do you feel about the socks with summer shoes? I can honestly say I am already a huge fan :) So be prepared to pull of some cute socks (these were beige so they kind of looked like my skin, oops), and those summer shoes and lets get ready for spring together.

  7. Socks with sandals/open-toed shoes is a tough one for me, I have to admit! I nearly always enjoy the look on others, but I'm a little chicken about trying it myself. Way to venture out! I'm also loving the rich color of those pants - so fresh with the blue sweater.
