Review: Ann Taylor's Bow Peeptoe Pump

I first discovered these little ladies via The Chloe Conspiracy, and thanks to a 40% off coupon, I had to make them mine!

I am usually a size 7.5, but there was too much of a gap in that size, so I had to go down to a 7. They are actually quite comfortable, and will go with literally everything. (This is my first ever shoe review, so I took way too many pictures!) They make me feel so tall and chic! :) Special thanks to GiGi for the linking!

*UPDATE* First day of wearing report: I wore them from 830am until 7pm, and my feet are definitely sore. I used a gel foot petal the entire day, which helped a lot. I sit at a desk most of the day, and my feet did pretty well until about 3:30, there was some rubbing on the toes, but the heel was amazingly fine. I had errands to run after work, and that's when the pain set it. These are not walking around shoes, but they're not unbearable. I plan to wear them out to dinner, to weddings/holiday parties etc. But of course I will bring flats with me. They're your typical high heel, they're going to need broken in, but definitely worth it. I received countless compliments!

Here they are, the Bow Peeptoe Pump:

Review: Anthropologie's Odette V-Neck

I ordered the Odette V-Neck a while back after reading the reviews on Anthropologie. Everyone raved about the comfort and fit, but a lot of people recommended sizing down. So, I did. Aaaand maybe I shouldn't have. It's a bit boxy, and I feel as if I'm constantly pulling it down. It's INCREDIBLY soft and light, and a cami underneath is a necessity. I ordered a Medium, and I think a Large would have been perfect. Alas, this top went on sale for $9.99 and I tried to order the navy but it was unavailable almost immediately.

I remedied this with a longer slim fit cami (Forever 21).
