This past month, I was preparing for my cousin's wedding when I discovered that I was in need of some of the staples of occasion wear: a purse and some heels. My initial instinct was to buy yet another pair of versatile nude pumps. I also tend to favor closed-toe shoes and ankle straps, but I've also always wanted to buy T-strap shoes. While searching 6pm.com for the second hour, I found the Nine West "Scandal" pumps, which feature a T-bar, double-strapping, and a pointed-toe with a sensible heel height of 3.5 inches. The pointed-toe is an intriguing trend that really adds to your height and creates a sophisticated tone to your outfit. However, I've never enjoyed items with animal print, so I paused before choosing these shoes, which are patterned with synthetic reptile skin. I came to the conclusion that this ring lizard pattern was actually an advanced form of the nude pump: the white and gray color was just as easily pair-able and the pattern brought a minuscule texture into any outfit. When continuing my search for a purse, I ended up finding a small bag at ALDO Accessories that matches in color with the shoes. The purse contains three compartments, with the central one having multiple inside pockets and zippers on either side. It has two different synthetic snakeskin patterns: one in a dark gray with a light pink wash for the front pocket, and the other in a cream color that wraps around the bag and forms the strap. The bag has been perfect for storing some of my essential items, while also looking small and adorable when hanging at my side. The shoes and purse ended up being one of my most successful purchases, but I don't think I will need any more reptile skin in my life for a long time. Details:
