What We're Wear'n- Ann Roth Shoes

I am a big fan of supporting local artists and designers, especially one as talented as Ann Roth. She makes adorable shoes from all sorts of found fabrics and details. I happen to love the pair that GrabMol strolled in wearing last week. These are a great pair of wedge espadrille heels with a really cute black and patterned fabric. What I really like about this fabric is that it is slightly textured (take my word for it, I know you can't tell by the photo). I think these are a great addition to any wardrobe and will look amazing with a jean skirt.

Ann Roth also lets you customize your own shoes. You can either pick out of your own fabric and she will apply it to one of her current shoe designs, or work with you to start the design process from scratch. Many of her styles are great for summer and spring, but several I think would be perfect with a pair of tights for the fall and winter.

Check out her website to see what stores in Atlanta carry her shoes or to shop online.

What We're Wear'n (again)

I never said I was a hand model, but I feel my bracelet deserves a little press. I always get remarks about this bangle- even from guys. I am not sure why my guy friends always remark about it. I doubt it is because they see the value of it being a very versatile piece and that it goes with almost any outfit. When I don't know what to put on- I always throw it on (kinda like yesterday). I purchased it at Anthropologie about a year ago. As someone who works in the print industry, I can really appreciate the different typefaces. I know that monogram was sooooo 2005, but I still love that it has my initial (maybe I need to get a "Y" one now too??). It is made with decoupaged paper so I try not to get it wet when I wash my hands, though I think it is sealed pretty well.

I firmly believe that they have some of the best accessories. My one gripe is that 9 times out of 10, they are over-priced. Anthros better (better= $100+) items are always in the glass cases. They are one of those stores that I love to hit when they have a sale, but rarely shop their full price items. I also worked there briefly a few years ago and ended up spending more than I made during those 3 weeks. Once you have that 40% off employee discount, it is really hard to pay full price again.

What We're Wear'n #2

I think that GrabMol's outfit today deserves to be highlighted. She is sport'n another Richard Chai for Target creations. I think that the black and deep purple go really great together. I especially love how it works with her fair features. This dress will look great with a black long sleeve shirt under it in the coming cooler months. The neck is almost a cross between cowl neck and boat neck. I also love the pockets, it gives it such a great modern feel.



What I think is the best part of the ensemble are the shoes. The mustard-color flats really pop and work perfectly with this shade of deep aubergine. the straps and ruffled on the top of the shoes at such a sweet detail. She doesn't even need any jewelery as the shoes and dress speak volumes. Shoes also from Target.
