Some people work to cure cancer, others are fighting the war on poverty. Me? My selfless act is to help people spend money on stuff they need, like clothes and bags and makeup and, of course, killer shoes. But, that's not all. I like to eat. And complain (most specifically about how hard it is to be a mom). Oh, and obsess over the next perfect pair of shoes.

Friday Shoe Haiku, Plus an Outfit
Sunny yellow pop
If you don't know what to wear,
Go with crazy shoes
Shoe n' Tell: Betseyville low wedges from last spring.
So, I was chagrined to realize that I had yet to wear the H&M Garden Collection tank that I had lusted over for WEEKS before I snapped it up on March 27. Yes, I remember the date. Don't ask me if I remembered to use shampoo this morning when I showered, but I do remember my faborriffic trip to Scottsdale's H&M. So, I put together the outfit around that shirt: Forever XXI white stretch jeans (please, rolled up jeans, don't ever, ever fade out of style); J. Crew knit cardi; Forever XXI rhinestone necklace and trashy bracelets from who knows where. The shoes stumped me, though.
Gold gladiators? Ballet flats? I did what I always do when in doubt: slipped on bright shoes that clash so much they actually seem to go. At least, that's what I like to tell myself.
By the way, can you tell I have a similar just-go-nutty-with-color philosophy regarding nail polish? Gotta love Smurf-blue toes.

i sent you a e-mail.i wanted to thank you again for the neclace i won.you can see it in the picture.
I saw you walking home from school in this outfit this morning! Then I saw you in your post-workout clothes picking up youngest at the preschool. The many looks of Kcookski! And you only ever get to see my one... such a shame.
but, my dear ms. becky, the one outfit you do put together is always smokin'.
and, this is embarrassing, but i realized the other day that as jammed as my closet it, i really ought to change four times a day to utilize my wardrobe.
Love the color on your toes. I need to find some navy blue nail polish!
