Day 96--It's the final countdown!!!

Day 96---Black croc texture cork wedges by Mossimo. I've had these shoes for years but honestly don't wear them very often. They tend to not be very kind to my toes...I bought something to see if it will help cure the problem. We'll see!

Day 95

Day 95---I got these in until it started raining 2 hours ago :) Silver (flowers) metallic leather sandals by Nine West. I've had them for so many years, but I love them so much!!

Day 94--Every girl has to have a wild side!

Day 94---These are a toughy to describe! Animal print satin strappy heels by Joey. A bit wild...but I'm going out tonight with the girls so I think a bit wild is appropriate!


I'm getting down to the very last few of the original 99 shoes. I have a couple of heels, couple of tennies and a pair of sandals. I have some extras left over from both miss count and because I've bought some new shoes (just a few..wink, wink) in the last 94 days. But I've kept true to the original 99. I'm trying to think of some ideas of what to do after this little adventure is over. I might    have some ideas up my sleeve...


I wrote yesterday about the excitement over the opening of the new H & M store in Washington Square. No big deal right? I had to laugh out loud (literally LOL) when I was checking out People.com this morning and stumbled across this....

First Lady Michelle Obama Rocks $35 H&M Dress

Peter Kramer/NBC

Michelle Obama is often lauded for her approachable fashion sense that mixes high-end designers with recognizable mall favorites like J.Crew. And earlier this week, the First Lady made an appearance on NBC’s Today Show outfitted in a $34.95 dress from none other than H&M! Never shying away from bold colors, Mrs. Obama gave her navy-and-white print a personal touch by adding an orange obi-style belt and pairing it with bright yellow pumps. And while she has an affinity for arm-baring styles, her stylist took a different approach with this ruffle-front dress, customizing it by adding sleeves. The original sleeveless version, which also comes in melon pink, is part of the affordable retailer’s current collection in stores now. – Hana Choi

Day 93--I'm not the only crazy one...

Day 93---Red Slingback rope wedges by Jessica Simpson. These along with the beautiful sun make me ache for Summer!!


Some may have heard that the clothing store H & M has come to Oregon. Is that really news you may ask? Well, if you like well made fashion at reasonable prices the answer is YES! The new store just opened today at Washington Square and people lined up for their noon Grand Opening celebration. Wow...sleeping bags and pillows? Maybe my 100 pair shoe collection isn't so crazy after all!

Day 92--Admit it, You're going to miss me when I'm gone!

Day 92---Black satin ankle strap heels by Nina. These are not "all day shoes". These are "going out shoes". So it goes without saying that I have not been wearing them all day. I need to find a reason to go out so I get to wear them... Little black dress and you're set!

Day 91--These Boots are made for Day 91!

Day 91---I feel like I'm in the home stretch!! 8 more days. I can do this!! Black suede wedge boots by Enzo Angiolini. Super comfortable and easy to wear. I have an obsession with boots (among other things obviously). Could be worse!


One of my favorite actresses is Charlize Theron. She is an amazing actress along with being beautiful and stylish. I came across the quote from her that was funny and self-depreciating:



"If they ever do my life story, whoever plays me needs lots of hair color and high heels."
Charlize Theron

Day 90-- I'm thankful for flats today!!

Day 90---Happy to be wearing flats today!! T-strap patent leather sandals. I don't know who they're by. It's rubbed off. My ankles are thanking me today!!
