{recap} Wardrobe Update - January

(I'm still in Florida, but it's the end of the month and that means wardrobe update time!)

I love the first wardrobe update of the year, it's such a nice, clean slate! This month my goal was to not spend any money on clothes. I did buy something, but I used a gift card so I technically didn't use my money. There's always a loophole, right?

But, as per usual, I went to DSW with my Mom "just to look" before I went on my trip. I almost made it out alive. I went through clearance in my size only looking for the yellow stickers (aka 80% off) and didn't see any good pairs so I joined my mom to see if I could help her find cute shoes. Then I found these AMAZING Franco Sarto mules and decided to see if they had them in my size too...they did, so I bought them for 50% off plus $5 more off. The color is perfection and they're a really soft suede. They're very reminiscent of the Gucci loafers everyone - including me - have been obsessed with for over a year. I had wanted the slingback version, super cool.

  3. Love the shoes - I've been a mule kick lately too and somehow ended up with three pairs.
