to start this off, i'd like to post a new pair of shoes. i have been looking for some cute flats for quite awhile. luckily they have stayed in style...that's how long i've been looking. found a pair from payless for about $18.

yes, they are casual and kinda cheesy. but i love them just the same....and they keep me out of my typical flipflops. i'm tired of stinky, dirty feet!
