Day 81--Blow your nose on this!
Day 81---Black leather strappy heels by Bandolino. Loving that I can wear sandals today and it's actually SUNNY!!
I went shopping with my girlfriend Vanessa yesterday and found something fun at the "undergarment" store that was fun and out of the ordinary. A cute package of tissue that I am going to have a hard time actually blowing my nose into! I didn't get want I went in there for, but a got a fabulous pack of hankies. FYI...I think my camera is going out!! I guess 81 days of constant use is taking it's toll...blah!!!

Day 80--It's the weekend, right?
Day 80---I'm officially a lunatic!...Leather and suede rounded-toe heeled Mary Janes by Nine West. The color is really pretty. They are a purplish gray taupe if that makes sense. They don't look it, but are really comfortable and easy to walk in. I'm working on a story for my blog for later, if I can get it together. Have a great day!
Update: 7:44pm No blog story....Sorry....Shoezilla was too busy....too stressed....But on a happy note, I had about 3 minutes to myself in the minivan today driving home from the grocery store when a great song came on the radio. I cranked it up and sang along out loud and I swear for those 3 minutes I forgot that I was a married mother of four children driving a minivan....It was a great 3 minutes....

Day 79---Embrace your crazy
Day 79---Time to switch things up!! Purple Birkenstocks!! I got these a few months ago and My goodness do they take me back...I LOVE them...They are not glamorous and were hard to take a somewhat decent picture of. But I love them. I wish I still had my pink ones from HS! These are for you Sarah R.!!
I guess it could be said that I have very eclectic taste in shoes. I love to mix things up. I can wear black leather 6 inch stilettos one day and purple Birkenstocks the next. I even have the tie-dyed skirt to match! That's what I love about fashion the most. You can change your looks, your feelings and how people perceive you all by changing what you wear. What fun! That's what my closet is overflowing with...FUN! That's how I express myself. Sometimes I completely bomb and sometimes I hit the mark. It's just clothes and shoes. Nothing to take too seriously. I read an article on People.com today with Actress Helena Bonham Carter (whom I adore!!) and she was talking about how she loves fashion and taking risks...I mean, hello, she wore two different colored shoes to The Golden Globe Award Show this year!! In the article she goes on to say:
“Why not wear mismatching shoes? Who says we can’t? I was just having fun,” says Bonham Carter. “For me, fashion is all about fantasy and putting unlikely things together. That’s what I love. I genuinely love dressing up.”
She's a complete Wack A Do, but I love her even more for it! Embrace the crazy and go for it. Maybe just not everyday...

Day 77--Gotta know when to hold'em and when to wear'em!
Day 77---Black suede wedges by Jessica Simpson. They have cutouts and silver studs. They were really hard to get a good photo of. I Love them, but I'm not sure the pic does them justice. They have a good platform on them that makes them a workout to walk in, but that's good for the calves, right!? The only bad thing about these shoes is that I can't wear them in the rain. As with any suede shoe, you have to be careful about getting them wet even if you pretreat them with waterpellent. So in Oregon that leaves me with about 4 solid months out of the year that I can safely wear these without worrying about getting caught in a drizzle. Wait...Did I say 4? One of the kids must have left some glue out...Let's make that 2 solid months out of the year. The rest of the time I'm just taking my chances with the weather. But I'm a gambling girl!

Day 76-- Where's YOUR crazy??
Day 76---Pony Hair animal print Platform heels by Carlos Santana. I'll totally admit they're a bit crazy, but every woman should have some crazy in her closet!!
I'm starting to count down the days....23 to be exact. I'm worried that everyone is absolutely sick and tired of seeing my silly shoes. "Oh goodness, it's Jacque and her shoes again!". I don't want to bore anyone or be the crazy shoe woman. I'm afraid there is a whole Facebook page devoted to how to block my posts!!
