SHOW AND TELL {GLADIATOR}

I have been dreaming about these Stuart Weitzman gladiator sandals for months so when one of my friends at the salon pranced in with them on a few weeks ago I all but took them off her feet.  Lucky for me we are the same size and she insisted that I borrow them (twist my arm).  I just needed an opportunity to wear them.  When I made plans for a little brainstorm sesh/happy hour earlier this week with fellow blogger Katie of Spray Paint & Chardonnay, I knew I could count on her to appreciate my excitement over a pair of shoes!  I must admit that even though they look super tough, since they are mostly elastic they are surprisingly comfortable.  I think this is the biggest difference in investing in a good pair and I’m all for comfort!

This edition of “SHOW AND TELL” isn’t just about the shoes however, I came across this little dress from Target last weekend and thought the pattern was just so summery.  It’s super comfy, has a little fun detail in the back and would be darling with some heels a pashmina and a chignon for a special occasion.  The bonus…the dress was under $25 so if you splurge on the sandals then this is a perfect steal to compliment!

In this Texas heat the AC is on full blast which means I am freezing whenever I am inside so I don’t leave home without a light layer for indoors.  I have had this clutch for years and I love that I can throw it in my larger bag and pull it out for a girls night.  I can’t find the original but this one is pretty darn close!

This is how happy I would look if someone wanted to get me a pair of these sandals (hint hint Trevor)!
