Forever 29.

Today is a remarkable day. Why is that so? BECAUSE IT IS MY BIRTHDAY! That's right, 29 years ago today I was born in what was then a small town in Central CA. Yeeeeah, not to toot my own horn or anything (toot toot!), but I pretty much love when this time of year rolls around. January 13th is like the perfect time to have a birthday--just when the Christmas gift-hangovers have worn off, and I might have a few things on my wishlist that just didn't get checked off...then, BAM! Birthday. And not to mention this is the last year of my twenties. Sheesh! Time sure flies when you're buying shoes. But a friend recently clued me in that Queen Elizabeth notably celebrates the "anniversary" of her 29th birthday every year. In addition to that, my cute mom-in-law also has a saying that she's "forever 29" - because that's when she met her husband. Sweet thing. Well, all of that to say that I think 29 might just be a pretty darned good year.

And of course a good year calls for great shoes. In this case, it's Kate Spade that's got my almost-30 heart! Check out Kate Spade's 'Diva' pumps, shown here in a sweet winter-to-spring navy blue. A perfectly Kate 4" heel with a suede & mesh upper material give this pump a truly classic spin. I love the tiny, tiny lil' peep toe opening too. Tres chic!


Here's to birthday candles and shoes!

Lazy days

It's the end of the week, I'm slowly unpacking from my week-long vacation to my hometown and family, and utterly enjoying my last few days off. Not only have I managed to eat 3 large meals a day everyday this last week, but I also have developed a terrible addiction to words with friends on my iPhone. Help me! Ahhh, but it's days like this that I just wanna curl up with a good book + some of my favorite high heels for fashion inspiration... xoxo, holly in heels

Shoe closet love.

I will be the first to stand up and admit that I have a fabulous husband. Not only is he smart, funny, creative and patient, but he's pretty darned hot too! I still consider us newlyweds (and probably will for quite some time), because we're always doing thoroughly silly stuff for one another--keepin' things fresh, fun and surprising, ya know? Here's one of my fave pics of us, taken a few years ago during our engagement photoshoot. Good times. That being said, I was still simply breath-taken when I came home from a way-too-long day of work and found that my sweet beau had used his furlough day (yes, it's not just a vicious rumor that we have those all over the place in the state of CA) to transform our hall coat closet into none other than a shoe closet . You heard me right... shoe closet = every girl's dream, ya? We don't really use our hall coat closet anyway, living in such a warm southern California city, so I was thrilled to actually put this space to ...

One hot heel giveaway!

Well readers...it's your lucky stinkin' summer because I have yet another giveaway! This time we're givin' away HIGH HEELS! Yep, it's maybe my most favorite-est thing in the whole wide world, and KM2 shoes is making our high-heel dreams come true. I have to say these heels are fab-yoo-lus (especially since I recently welcomed KM2's gorgeous 'Kristin' heels into my own high heel collection!) . They are true to size, extremely comfy, and have that unique design that's truly eye-catching! You can purchase KM2 shoes online or in stores near you . I love the story of this company too -- three sisters founded KM2, Megan, Katelyn and Mattison Gelber, after growing up with two very fashion-forward parents. Their mid-western roots and life experiences in New York & Los Angeles have caused these ladies to develop a unique style, rooted in nostalgia, with an edgy flare! I asked them a few questions about to help us all get to know them better and loved...
