(H&M sweater / ZARA trousers / Nine West (old) pumps)
I put these heels up for sale on the blog shop, but nobody wanted them. So I decided to take them out for a spin. I fell back in love. I'm a "black shoes" kinda gal. I can never stop buying black shoes regardless of the wide selection of colors out there. But when I laid my eyes on these pink-purple (pinkle?) suede pumps 2 years ago, I couldn't contain myself. Besides, the style is classic enough to balance out the crazy color. I was sold. Unfortunately, I bought them when I was just learning to walk in heels. I couldn't deal with the height and the narrow toe box at the time, so I put them back in the box. Fast forward two years later, I can handle the height but they still pinch my (big fat) toes. I'm planning to give them a good run and hoping that they'll stretch out eventually.
That's the story of my shoes :)
xx toodles.

Your hair looks GORGEOUS Kristy!!! Seriously so beautiful and feminine. Love it! Also love the fit of your pants and ummm those shoes are absolutely amazing! So glad you didn't get rid of them. In regards to sizing, maybe bring them to a cobbler to get stretched out?
Have a great week!

Glad you picked them back up, they are lovely! Ugh, I wish I could walk in heels... I have not "learned" the proper way apparently, LOL. Thus, wedges and flats for me! XP
EEK! I adore your hair and this entire colour palette :) Super adorable look Kristy <3! I lovelovelovelovelove the fit of those trousers. Gimme!! Also, take your shoes to the cobbler, that should fix the pinching toes problem :)

Ohmygod. Don't you dare sell those again girl! They are SO gorgeous Kristy. I've always had a soft spot for purple shoes (I don't really know why) and these are so...suede-licious. Mm <3
First of all, your hair looks fantastic! Love it so much!
Second, I adore those shoes - they are keepers, for sure! Get the leather stretch spray, wet the inside of the shoe a bit, spray the shoe on the inside, and wear around the house for a few hours - should work.
Good luck!
Lovely shoes. I love revisiting things I haven't worn in my closet. =) And how long did it take for you to become comfortable in heels?

The purple pumps were completely unexpected! I was slowly scrolling down and was soo blown away by the shoes when I saw. You're a genius! I'm glad you decided to keep them after all. I think they are so very you!!
Those shoes were just meant for you to keep then hehe :) Love how you styled them here with Spring neutrals! I can't wait to see how else you style these Pinkle shoes hehe!
I love "shopping my closet" and rediscovering old pieces. Timing is everything and those pumps are perfect for colour blocking in the Spring! You look fabulous!
