A Letter About Heartbreak

This blog has moved.
Last week I was at Aldo's and saw this beauty - the Petrona. Now, I actually have a few injuries in my legs and haven't been wearing heels nearly as much as I used to. I'm also not supposed to be wearing heels for a while. But when I saw this, I got weak in the knees. My heart skipped a beat. I was out of breathe. I had to have these - for when I'm back to wearing heels. I absolutely HAD to have them. Well, as you probably can tell from the title of this post - I couldn't have them. They didn't have them in my size. They didn't even have them in the next size up - I would've worn that with insoles. But no, they didn't have it. They didn't have any online. They didn't have any at any stores in the neighboring states. Nowhere.

I felt like I had gone from being head over heels in love (pun intended) to being stabbed in my heart, within a matter of seconds. It was like no pain I had ever felt before. Am I being a little overdramatic? Probably. Do I care? No. I'm a girl whose heart has been shattered. All I wanted was to bring the love of my life home with me. And I couldn't.

So, dear Aldo's designers and executives - this is a letter to you. I need this shoe in my life. I'll be waiting.

Signed,
Heartbroken & Helpless

PS - I am moving my blog to Wordpress soon so, I would love it if you guys would follow me on Bloglovin'!

April's Covet List

Bag / Dress / Boots / Bracelet / Pants / Necklace
Bag: Y'all probably already recognize the bag! I've always wanted this bag and I absolutely love it in this beautiful, pastel color!

Dress: Well, black & white is one of THE hottest trend this spring. What I love about this dress is that the white part is actually faux leather. I already have another piece in white faux leather and I feel like it's the perfect mix of summer+girly+edgy.

Boots: These boots are pretty much a far more affordable version of the Chloë studded boots. I absolutely love them - they're super versatile and edgy.

Bracelet: I am sort of obsessed with animal bangles of this kind, and I already own a couple (seen here, here, here, here, to mention a few). J.Crew puts out a new animal bangle every season and I love each and every one. This one, however, is a bit special because I've always been in awe of dolphins - they fascinate me!

Pants: Military-inspired is another huge trend this spring so, I feel like I pretty much need these ankle skinnies, no?

Necklace: You might have noticed in some of my recent posts (like this one) that lately I've been gotten into stacking multiple little pendant necklaces. I've gathered quite a few necklaces and this would be the perfect addition!

What are you coveting right now?

My Current Wish List

As a full-time grad student, I've been on a tight budget for so long! But now that I'm graduating in a few short months, I've been dreaming of shopping again! I figured what better than a wish list, to motivate me to focus on my job search, right? ;) The best thing about all the items, on this list, is that they're good year-round and work with, well, everything. Basically, they're all closet staples - yep!

Also, I'm a firm believer in "Ask and you shall receive" so, universe (and whoever else wants to know), here are the items I'm currently coveting!
Michael Kors Leather Sleeve Trench
J. Crew Classic Pavé Link Bracelet
Alexander McQueen Scalloped Modified Cat-Eye Sunglasses
Sam Edelmen Scarlett T-Strap Sandals
Burberry Haymarket Check Fabric and Smooth White Leather Watch
3.1 Phillip Lim Pashli Shark Embossed Satchel
All I need now is a big, winning lottery ticket! You guys like?
