Chanel 14S Black on Black Boy WOC

I never did a proper reveal on my Chanel 14S Black on Black Boy WOC that I got back in May (see my post Surprise from Chanel Boutique - San Francisco, CA) so this post will serve double duty as a belated reveal plus a mod pic from its maiden voyage...a shopping trip to Costco this afternoon!

Valentino Neon Yellow Simple Rockstud Pumps 85 - Stanley Korshak

The neon yellow Valentino rockstud kitten heel slingbacks were the ones that got away...and my exhausting search for them these past few months has been in vain. So I am happy settling for this pair of neon yellow Valentino simple rockstud pumps. After all, they do have more neon yellow surface than the slingbacks (which only has them on the toes and the heel) and the price is less, thanks to finding them on sale at Stanley Korshak! These will definitely still give me that pop of color I've been looking for in a demure style like the simple pump, with just a single rockstud on the back. :)

Tiffany & Co. Blue Metropolitan Bag

Eureka! According to Wikipedia, "Eureka" comes from an Ancient Greek word, meaning "I have found (it)" and for me this means that I have finally found my perfect little bag in true Tiffany blue!!! Despite my previous consideration with the Chanel turquoise lamb WOC and mini (which were a few shades off as well as a different blue tone), I ended up finding a bag made by Tiffany & Co. from a reseller in Florida, Palm Beach Luxury.

Born White Kimona Slippers - Rue Lala

Slippers are an essential part of my shoe inventory, since that is what I wear to yoga class (which I go to almost every day). When I see a cute pair made by a brand that I know makes comfortable, quality footwear (like Born) and the price is less than $20.00 from a reputable online retailer (like Rue Lala), I simply cannot resist getting them. So here is my new pair of white leather sandals adorned with an adorable trio of flowers...they just arrived today!

Schutz Black & Natural Athena Espadrille Wedge Sandals - Neiman Marcus

Although I wanted my first pair of espadrilles to be Valentino, I never did find anything in my size and I was open to any color I could find. Well, I did "order" a black pair of Valentino espadrille wedges in my size from Saks Fifth Avenue, but I ended up getting an email a couple of days later saying that my order could not be fulfilled. So I gave up on Valentino and found Schutz espadrille wedges on sale at Neiman Marcus Last Call...the price was so good that I ordered two pairs, one in black and one in natural. They fit true to size and they look absolutely adorable with the laces tied into a bow! I get compliments every time I wear them: "Cute shoes!"

Pelle Moda Aqua Flirty Snakeskin Sandals - Neiman Marcus

Even though my wide feet give me the worst luck when it comes to finding shoes that fit, some sandals are just too cute and too good of a deal to pass up. These Pelle Moda strappy sandals in aqua snakeskin were exactly that...especially because they seemed to be very close to Tiffany blue, one of my favorite colors! I saw them first on the Neiman Marcus website, then found them cheaper on Neiman Marcus Last Call. ;)

Vince Camuto Black Paden Sandals - Rue Lala

Sometimes you just need a basic pair of black sandals that you don't need to be careful with, and these Vince Camuto Paden ones fit the bill. Coming from Rue Lala, they are comfy, durable and inexpensive...perfect for unexpected rain, dirt and cobblestone streets!

YSL Yves Saint Laurent Black Croc Tribute 105 Sandals - Farfetch

Even though I already was in love with YSL Tributes, these black croc embossed sandals completely take it to the next level...they are absolutely STUNNING!!! Now I am spoiled by them and I want all my future YSL Tributes to be croc embossed. Thank you Smets via Farfetch, for this gorgeous pair...my all-time favorite pair of black sandals!!! :)

Badgley Mischka Silver Tatiana Sandals - Nordstrom

After a full day of shopping in San Francisco Union Square, the only goodie I ended up getting was this pair of silver metallic sandals from Nordstrom, the "Tatiana" by Badgley Mischka. Every girl needs a pair of bling sandals and these are mine!!!

Chanel 14S Fuchsia Lamb Rectangle Mini

After 15 weeks and 3 days has passed since the day I pre-ordered from Hirshleifers...my Chanel fuchsia lamb rectangle mini has finally arrived!!! Although the wait for this precious little bag was not so fun, there are some positives to having done the pre-order:

1) I was not subject to the price increase that happened on May 1st, which was $500.00.
2) Since I don't live in New York and there is no Hirshleifers in my state, my purchase was not subject to sales tax.
3) During the long wait, I shopped for matching nail polish and matching shoes, as well as outfits to wear with my little fuchsia lamb mini.

YSL Yves Saint Laurent Flame Tribute 105 Sandals

Hot, hot, hot!!! Those are the first 3 words that come to mind when I first saw these YSL Tributes in real life. No wonder the color is called "Flame" because it's a perfect description for this shiny, fiery red patent leather sandal. The high heeled version of the classic Tributes also contribute to the "sexy" factor. Can't wait to wear these!

YSL Yves Saint Laurent Fuchsia Tribute 75 Sandals - Saks Fifth Avenue

I've been eyeing these sandals for at least a month now, trying to decide between the mid-heel and the high-heel, and wondering how good of a color match they will be to the Chanel fuchsia lamb mini that should be arriving any day now. When I saw them go on pre-sale at Saks Fifth Avenue and found out the Chicago store had only one left in my size in the mid-heel version (the high heels sold out), I ordered them immediately...and I just received them today!!!
