TeachOhio.....Love the red ones and the mint wedges!!! Where did you get them??

Everything I just posted is from UrbanOG; I've had fantastic luck with finding adorable flats, sandals, and heels there. The red are still available in black, "natural", and "grapefruit" in limited sizes, and the mint only in a tan size 10.

These others pictured are also from that site; I think I've gotten half of my collection there! (The gray boots have a purple sole, which I love)

Haha.....I almost always know which shoes I want to wear out and pick an outfit to go with them anyone else pick shoes first???

If it's a new pair of shoes, I'll absolutely plan an outfit or a whole suitcase in order to wear them as much as possible. Otherwise, I'll make a pile of all possible outfits, then narrow them down based on which shoes would go with each.

Narrowing down shoes is always the hardest part of a trip... if only that wasn't the part that weighed the most *and* took up the most space in a bag!

These are my latest acquisitions (I think the red ones are my new favorites!) I've got a metal shoe rack in my closet that's starting to bend in the middle under the weight, and even though it's full I still have shoes taking up every out-of-the-way bit of closet floor space.

I've never been on either of these ships specifically, though I went on both of these lines as a teenager (Royal Caribbean when 13 and Carnival when 16). I enjoyed the RC ship much more. Apart from the "teens club" there wasn't very much to do on Carnival; everyone seemed to revolve around the pools and the bars. I'm going on the Oasis with a group of friends later this year, and picked that ship in part because I think the guys who are coming (ages 22 and 25) will enjoy having so many active options.
