Love or Loathe: Sandal Boot

By -
That I just titled this "sandal boot" should mean I hate Pour La Victoire's "Camille" flat. That it is essentially a tongueless, toeless, leather high top should also trigger my gag reflex, yet I think they'd be perfect for making an otherwise sweet or classy outfit have a little edge. Can you picture how fabulous they'd be with colored tights in the fall? For me, they are so wrong they swing 'round back to fabulous. You? Would the black or brown version make you feel differently?

I think they're absolutely hideous and totally unflattering! I really hope the roman sandal/boot phase passes soon.

On a small foot, they might be able to work, but the boot looks really long so I doubt it would work on a large foot like mine.

But at nearly $200, a sorta-maybe-could-work shoe isn't good enough.

Loathe. And here's why. Most shoes for advertisements are the smallest size, because the smallest size is the cutest. Therefore, if we assume that the shoe pictured is a size 6 or less, and yet has the appearance of being at least a 9, just imagine how long it would make the average 8.5 woman's foot look? By the time it would fit becca or me, our poor feet would look like a size 15-16 boats. *shudder*

What we looked like in 2009 Ten years ago I created, Fashion Me Fabulous, wrote up a handful of posts, picked a layout and send it all to my friend, Jael. “I’ve started a fashion blog. What do you think?” She gave me a few tips, wrote a couple “guest posts” and before long became my blogging partner. Together, we built a blog and community I could have never built alone. From the end of 2007 to the end of 2014, Fashion Me Fabulous ran regular content about fun, affordable fashion. Jael and I covered fashion week , reviewed fashion books , wrote about fashion history and did more shopping than seems humanly possible to search out the best clothes and accessories . We explored our personal styles , scoured Etsy for unique creations . I watched every single episode of Project Runway and blogged about it. Jael created an amazing presence on Polyvore . We learned all sorts of things about coding and websites and content and graphic design and so on. (You can tell if you look at

Dramatic Makeup

October is the perfect month for anyone who loves a dramatic look. Because of Halloween, you can get away with more in the makeup department than you can the rest of the year. You want to try false eyelashes? Go for it. You want to color your eyebrows? Do it. Color outside the lines with eyeshadow? Why not? Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.
