Don’t mix pink and red was one of those rules I remember growing up with but never followed. It’s in the same boat as never mixing brown and black or navy and black, or mixing patters, or wearing different shades of any given color together… all of which, I probably do more often than I should. In any case, what better occasion to do this then Valentine’s? Okay, obviously this outfit was worn prior to the occasion but it’s in the spirit of Valentine’s day, I promise!
My husband recently bought these Raybans on a whim while out the other night. It’s dangerous going out to dinner, having some wine & being nearby some of our favorite boutiques all at the same time. LA is tricky like that. Shopping & fine dining, all too close together. Meanwhile, I’ve been quietly plotting how to steal them from him. π I’m only [half] joking… I do love me some Raybans, though! Marriage is about sharing, right? lol

February 13, 2012 at 3:15 pmHmmm An! I love those shoes, Sam has come out with a yellow pair, thinking to get them..are them comfy? I learned all those rules too, red and pink is just an eyesore, but done right it looks great π
February 13, 2012 at 5:28 pmLOVE the yellow pair!! I have them in four colors & I just did a recent post on the yellow lol definitely on my lust list. They’re sort of comfy… like, I can wear them for a full day at work but my feet will be sore in certain places… They were true to size for me! Lot of reviews say they run big but if you go up a half size, the weight of the studs might make them slip off…
February 16, 2012 at 3:29 pmYeah, I say rules are meant to be broken. And damn girl, you look good breaking ’em!
February 13, 2012 at 8:56 pmLOL thanks dear!! <3 xox
