Tired of the mundane pics in my apartment, I went to the top of my apartment complex to capture the city.
Choosing this outfit:
Originally I was going to wear boots, so I knew that I wanted skinny jeans. Skinny jeans fit inside boots nicely, and they don't bunch like wide-leg jeans. Then I wanted a button-down country shirt feel. I don't own plaid shirts, so I wore this Converse button-down. Then I chose a belt with the biggest belt buckle out of my collection. I originally had the button down on it's own, but then decided I wanted to be able to unbutton it. I grabbed a tan tank top to wear underneath. I changed from the boot idea to kitten heels, after my experience at the Pasadena BBQ where I walked around a lot. I decided these shoes would be more comfortable to walk in verses heeled boots.
This is where I come to the point where I can't explain why I chose the red shoes. I looked and them and decided it would work. Some people may have back away because compared to the rest of the outfit they really stand out, but I liked that. They were the first shoes I saw in my closet and I went for it. To compliment the shoes I chose a red necklace, and my friend Colette let me borrow her cowgirl hat.
Later I decided that the necklace was too girlie, and opted for a neck scarf.
