This is what I wore out shopping with the hubby last week. It was the perfect summer day and we were running errands and I saw the brick wall and thought it was a great backdrop for an impromptu photo shoot! And so, that’s what we did! Because, why not? One of my favourite looks is ballet flats with shorts. I don’t know why, I just love that they dress up a pair of cut offs even just a slight bit, and plus I have this undying love for ballet flats, always and forever.
Happy Thursday! Zack and I are going to a See’s Candies event tonight, so that should be just as awesome as it sounds! I mean, life is just so hard sometime, you know? ;)
Have you ever had See’s? If not, what’s your favourite chocolate/candy store?
Tell me something random you’re doing today!

I wear ballet flats all the time with jeans or work pants, but never thought to pair them with shorts. I’ve never had See’s, but Dylan’s Candy Bar is probably my favorite candy store in the city. I’m not much of a sweets person, though. However, I can’t resist ferrero rocher chocolate –they are so addicting!
I don’t have much planned today, but I’m going to cook the first meal of the fall season in my crock pot today.I know it’s still summer, but it’s starting to cool down in New York –tomorrow’s supposed to only be in the 60’s.

super cute outfit! I don’t really do flats with shorts but perhaps should try… and LOVE see’s candy! I especially like when they are in those little booths in the mall and hand out free samples!
Katie

See’s Candies!?!! I’m not much of a chocolate lover but I LOVE See’s Marzipan Chocolates. That’s always my little treat whenever we pass a See’s store. Have one for me! :) Also, love the flats with the denim shorts. Cute look.
Katie
Yummm yes See’s everything is just to die for! I will absolutely have one for you! :)

I love pairing ballet flats with shorts too, especially if the overall look is a little boyish to begin with! Have fun tonight! Wish I could say I was doing something interesting but I have to work… ::sad trombone::

I like your purse! oh and where did you buy your shoes from? :)

I got my shoes from Steve Madden! Can’t find the exact ones any more! They’re suede black flats, though, and they have a lot of similar ones everywhere!

Love your outfit! And I couldn’t agree more, ballet flats are always a win!! They will forever be one of my favorites to wear. Oh my gosh! I went to See’s Candy over the summer, they lady kept offering us candy, and of course I couldn’t say no haha I had to keep trying it, I had to know if I liked it so that time or another time I knew if I should get it, but by the time we were done sampling, I wasn’t even sure I wanted to buy any. I bought some anyways haha I just HAD to have the coffee ones, but then got a headache, way too much sugar. Long story short, don’t eat the bon-bons, that’s what did it in for me!
Katie
YES, I love See’s because they ALWAYS offer free samples! :) Best ever.
