What I Am Wearing New Years

New Year's was almost a week ago and I am still waiting on my friends to upload their pics (I don't have a camera right now)!!! Either way I wanted to go ahead and post about what I wore...then hopefully I will get a picture sometime this week. Anyways, I decided to kick off the new year with a shimmery and shinny, yet reasonably priced ensemble.

For starters...I chose the dress. I knew I wanted silver and sequins. I just happened to find this dress at Express back in early December. Then, I paired it with a blazer that I already had in my closet from H&M when I visited NYC. Finally, the last (other than simple accessories), and most important piece of the outfit...the shoes!

I searched for the shoes all throughout our mall in Greensboro...not saying much...but after 3 floors and over an hour of just browsing, I didn't even see a shoe that interest me at all. I ended up driving across town to search through other stores in our city's nicer, but more expensive, outdoor shopping center.

There, I finally found a store with a few pairs of shoes that were reasonably priced and similar to the style of shoe that I had in mind. After over an hour of pondering between two shoes....a black, edgy pair of ZiggySohos, and a silver more delicate Steve Madden Platform...I chose the Steve Madden's.
