just add a beach

1.04.2012




One Teaspoon dress. Rebecca Minkoff bag. Charles Anastase wedges

Really trying to break these shoes in right now. Not that they’re uncomfortable or anything, just, being 7 inches taller and imagining all the possible ways I can twist my ankles makes me break sweat from nervousness. They’re so pretty but attract a lot of attention, or is this what it feels like to be a six foot female? But I am happy about wearing this dress in January versus waiting till summer. Love the flare in the sleeves and hem. Imagining it on the beach with some In N’ Out on a really hot day. Can’t complain – I’m just two thirds of the way there.

The silhouette of the dress and those sky-high wedges are mind-blowing. Extremely gorgeous, girl. x

love that dress, and those shoes are crazy high! I don't think I could wear them, I feel so strange when I'm towering over everyone.

Love those shoes!
I always thought the same thing - is it the height of the shoes or is it that I'm towering over other people?

That dress is stunning on you, especially the color. HA! Being a tall girl attracts attention, or maybe it's how awesome your outfit is!

I can't believe that those wedges are seven inches tall! They actually do look quite comfortable despite the very good point that this would not be the time to be klutzy. It's a great colour combination and I'm glad that you haven't managed to twist your ankles! Have a great rest of the week!

Love it! Also, yes being a 6' tall woman does attract some attention - as well as the obligitory, "can you reach something for me..."
