..happy feet..

when told was that business casual was required for most of our time in NYC...gasp!!.. i almost had an out-of-body experience... what fashion consious being would care to wear business casual outfits when traveling to NYC ?? not to mention most of us don't even own a pair of slacks or a button down shirt.. we live in hawaii for god's sake.. booriinggg

in the midst of deleting all the pre-planned NYC outfits out of my mind, i hear my teacher say "blah blah... wear comfortable shoes... blah blah"... huh??....flash backs of blisters from previous traveling adventures... ohh no...

Honestly, where in the universe can you find a pair of feirce "business casual" shoes that don't : 1. cripple your feet resulting to you walking like your barbie with knees that don't bend..or..2. the pair that relays the fashion statement equivilent to your grandmothers dinner shoes?

ladies there is a god...
(well actually a few of them)

meet :
paige -($425)

i picked up these babies from Nordstrom while moochin off of my mama's wallet... (guilty).. not only do i feel like i can conquer NYC in these shoes, i feel like i could run a marathon and bus out my interpretation of the jig... if it actually keeps my feet happy.. well we'll see...

former ballroom dancer and chemical enginner, Anyi Lu created a line of shoes that gave the fit, support, and flexiblity; combined with italian craftsmanship and trendy colorways... (hence its price tag).... any "business casual" (forced or voluntarily) girl would drool over... another foot friendly designer is Taryn Rose.. check out their websites to learn more about the interesting history of these designers..

10 days and counting!!.......

I really hope my Taryn Rose heels treat me good... I'm bringing loads of band aids. I think we should also get those inserts and pads for shoes in all forms! Aaahhh so EXCITED!

I'm here for the wedding of some obscure family member. Honestly, I just tagged along so I could stay at the Thompson. I lurve this place so much I don't want to leave... which might prove to be problematic tomorrow morning. I hope you have fun in NYC. Truth be told, I think I'm more of an east coast girl...
