Oxfords

For my birthday last year I got these babies...



I wear them all the time and love them! You can find them here. I love the contrast of wearing them with a skirt. A mix of masculine and feminine.

So before Landon and I moved out of our apartment we were in the Primary teaching CTR 5. The first Sunday I wore them, I was sitting next to a little girl in our class during singing time. I noticed she kept staring at my shoes. Finally she whispered, "why are you wearing boy shoes?" So cute and funny. Her dad probably had some oxfords in his closet at home. Oh the things kids say. What are your feelings about oxfords? Too masculine or love them? I am in love. I do think that you have to pick the right pair though. Some have a more feminine, slim look to them and others look like you really did steal your dad's big clod-hoppers. :)

Table & Chair Matchup

The dining room is one place people really do their home a disservice.  How? They have a matching dining set, a generic light fixture, and no rug under their table.  Raise your hand if that's you.  Don't worry, you're not alone.  Just by adjusting those 3 things (mix up your chairs, add a fun light fixture, add a rug) you can really revamp your dining room.  Just bought your dining set and can't afford new chairs?  Easy.  Keep your side chairs, but find some upholstered chairs to add as captain's chairs on each end of the table.  It will mix it up just enough! Plus you'll have 2 extra chairs when you have guests over.  Another option is painting your chairs a different color from your table and add some fun cushions or reupholstering the seats.                                             ...
