The merino shift from Banana Republic with black ballet flats from Target (THIS is why I state on my other blog that ballet flats are NOT a wardrobe staple for all women. How unattractive are they? Ack!), same silver hoops and cuff.
Hair was straightened while dry with dryer and round brush.
Makeup – just added a bit more of the philosophy foundation, khaki shadow from Revlon ColorStay shadow quad in Neutral Khakis, black UltraLiner from Maybelline on top lash line, and a second layer of DiorShow mascara in black and Nars blush in Orgasm. On lips is Nars lipstick in Dolce Vita.
I went out with friends and knew I would be at bars and clubs where I would be on my feet the entire time. I went shopping for flats and found NOTHING I liked so I stuck with my ugly ballet flats. Spent most of the time sitting, so no one really saw my feet so it was okay. Also it rained so I ended up tromping through a few puddles and was glad to not be wearing nicer shoes.
Allie,
Your legs still look good even in the flats. Different look for you from the usual heels, but I don’t see them making your legs look short, or your ankles thick. IMHO, your ankles in this photo are the shapeliest I’ve seen them.
Perhaps you would like them better in a nonbasic, i.e. a leopard print or metallic gold?
