Watch Love: Adidas 'Cambridge' Watch

Not that I need a new watch, but I love this edgy design!

I'm sure I wouldn't wear it with the jelly flats, but they were on sale and I couldn't resist the urge of putting them together here. 80's did make a comback, didn't they?

Biker Chic

SPLURGE
STEAL
It was a rainy day and I was extra busy getting my son ready for school, dropping my husband at the airport and getting to work on time this morning. I had around five minutes to get dressed and put on make up between dressing my son for school and making oatmeal.

I cuffed the jeans I wore yesterday, put on a black turtleneck sweater and added a black motorcycle jacket. No time to change purses but one can always change shoes.

I tied my houndstooth scarf with a "flop knot" I learned yesterday from lovely E. on Academichic.
These handmade booties are by a Spanish brand called Vialis. I love their different style and make. They were being sold at Nordstrom last year. I couldn't find anywhere else that carries them in US this year. Any ideas?

CLICK HERE for more information on the brand. I love their styles and quality.

Daily Steal: Grey Suede Pumps under $35

From Spring to Summer... great heel details and heights in all of them.

Grey shoes have the effect of elongating the leg and easy to wear with different colors as an alternative to nude and tan. I really love my dove grey heels and look forward to wearing them many more years.

Please help me decide!

I'm in awe of these shoes and can't decide on the color. Which one do you think is more versatile? I love the different shades of brown, but, on the other hand, nice blue/grey colored shoes is hard to come around. I need both colors in booties so can't decide on the color.

I saw it at Barking Dog Shoes. A site I like with recommendations for shoes with comfort and style.

Nicole Women's Blessed Shoe Bootie is a great deal with free overnight shipping at Endless.com.
