An Ode to my Shoes

I love these shoes, I mean really love them for 2 purposes.  1- these are the most comfortable and universally flattering flats.  I mean They seriously go with everything and keep your feet from looking chunky (WIN).  2- these are my “promotion” shoes and every time I wear them it gives a small sense of pride and accomplishment.  And, let’s get real who doesn’t love a little self confidence boost. 🙂

On getting exactly what you want…

Also known as blessed!  After my promotion, I opted to forgo my reward purchase (referenced http://www.houseofholts.wordpress.com/2014/08/01/cheers/  and http://www.houseofholts.wordpress.com/2014/08/14/making-lemonade/ ) due to budget, but this week was my first week in my new role. And this Sunday I happened upon these beauties in my favorite neighborhood discount shop, and they were EXACTLY my size and never been worn!!! I was beyond excited.

CHEERS

Today was a big day in the Holt household and a totally random post of celebration.  Today I got my first big promotion and did not even see it coming!!! So we will be adding something special to the closet…enter stage…
