Fun flats for fall and alliterations all around...

Happy Monday and even happier Monday to those of us not currently in the office (I can never say that so let me have my moment.) The wedding this weekend was...interesting. Think North Carolina mountains, lots of "hippies" and moonshine. You get the picture.
I'm currently at my sister's house with B and the pups recovering. I'll be back to normal blogging on Wednesday, but until then I compiled a little list of shoes that I'm wanting for the fall. My foot is still "injured" so I'm sticking to flats under $100, of course.
Purple is an easy neutral and the patent leather on these ups the ante on the cute factor.
Tee Dee in Patent Purple $69
via Chinese Laundry
Simple, basic, classic and so chic with skinny jeans.
Mia Hepburn $70
via Piperlime
This is not your average flat but I'm willing to bet the "cracked pewter" look is super easy to wear.
Seychelles Boy Short $80
via Piperlime
These look really comfy and the ankle wrap is perfect for skirts and dresses.
Leather ankle wrap skimmer $48
via UO
I love you sea foam and I want you as a shoe.
Kimchi blue suede ballet flat $34
via UO
Perfect fall shoe in a cheeky houndstooth print.
Multi-colored bow houndstooth ballet flat $45
via Gap
I'm lying low for the next couple of days but I'll be sure to respond to e-mails and comments as soon as I can. Until then, don't forget to enter the latest giveaway here. I'll be choosing a winner Wednesday morning (7/29) instead of Tuesday night b/c B and I will be traveling home.
I miss you bloggie friends!

  6. well i hope you had fun at the wedding! weddings are so strange. i have yet to go to a wedding where i can have a drink. GO FIGURE. clearly i need a different family or more friends to get married to enjoy THAT part of weddings! :)

    and love your shoe choices. i pretty much stick with flats with my gimpy ankle, and it is just easier and more comfortable. maybe someday we can do wedges or heels again! :0

    hope all is well! :)

  7. Those seafoam suede ones are too cute. I think Ryan would get mad at me though if I actually bought them... I've been doing a lot of flats-buying-but-not-wearing lately :) Too lazy to break any of them in!

  11. Oooh, these are gorgeous. I love the first and last pair especially. I collect flats like a crazy person -I've started being lazy and relying on cute ones to pep up my outfit, but I've given up trying to walk around town in heels all day.

  12. The purple flats are my fave... mostly because they're purple. Safe travels!

  26. UO strikes again! I love all the shoes they have---they really have cornered the market on unique, affordable flats. Great finds!

    ReplyDelete
  27. Oh! So sorry to hear that foot is still injured! It's very difficult when you are an active person and something like that prevents you from bouncing around as usual. Poor foot. Healing thoughts for foot! I love the top purple pumps BTW - very Audrey Hepburnesque!

    ReplyDelete
  28. i'll take them all! but seriously, thanks for the links! it *is* hard to find cute flats that won't make your feet smell or fall apart under $100

    ReplyDelete
  29. moonshine! hmmm fun until the second jar!

    those purple flats are rocking and the ankle wrap is really rocking!!!

    ReplyDelete
  30. Thanks Christina, another reason that we don't have to spend lots of $$$ to look comfy & chic! My fave is that 'Leather ankle wrap skimmer'

    xo*

  31. That first purple shoes!!! I just fell in lurrrrve

    ReplyDelete
  32. Moonshine? Well, you're definitely going to have to blog more details on this one my friend! Glad you're getting a few days off... enjoy your time!

    Oh, and great list of shoes!

    ReplyDelete
  33. Nice selection there!

    Enjoy your time off!!

  34. Love love love the purple flats. I can't wait for fall. Fall style in general is so much cuter than summer, in my opinion.

    ReplyDelete
  35. It does sound like a slightly weird wedding!
    Btw, what's the deal with ankle wrap sandals? I recently saw some that went all the way up to the knee. Not just ribbons, but actual wrapping. I thought the idea with sandals was to have something to wear when the weather's too hot for shoes??

    ReplyDelete
  36. Cute! I love ballet flats!

    ReplyDelete
  37. What happened to your foot, love?! Did you do RICE? I like those flats with the ankle tie. I must get myself some like it for summer.
