Hello my dears, I hope your week has been well! I can't believe it's already April. Half the year will have gone by before I know it. Anyway I'm back with another post for the Obsessed series where I share with you shoes that I am loving for the season. I decided to do something a little bit different this time and include both high end and low end options. Links to everything are down below.

As usual, sit back and relax and enjoy the eye candy!

I really like the way that oxfords add a bit of masculinity in an outfit and because they're such a "posh" shoe, it can also elevate a more casual look. As you can see in some of the ones I've selected, not all oxfords have to be chunky or manly; there are many styles that incorporate feminine details and would work wonderfully with Spring dresses and skirts!

Some of the trends for oxfords include platforms, embellishments, perforations, and cut outs. My favorite would be #5 in the high end options and #1 in the low end options. Which ones did you like the most? What other shoes are you into for this Spring? I'd love to hear your thoughts so leave them down below! Or Tweet me using the hashtag #ObsessedforSpring :)

Well, as predicted, I am back after a month (technically a little over a month but no one is really keeping track, right?). In the blink of an eye, I feel as though my spring semester as a junior has flown by and before I know it, it will be spring break. Professors aren't lying when they say spring semesters go by quick.

I have been keeping busy with school projects and papers as well as work but that's pretty much my lame excuse for not blogging. I sincerely wish summer would come so that I would have time to blog more often as I did the past summer!

Anyway, the shoe selection at my workplace has switched to sandals. I am (as most are) eagerly awaiting the arrival of spring and warmer weather to grace us all but oddly enough, I haven't been all that excited about sandals and such. Lately, I've been pining away at sneakers.

No idea why.

In the past shopping trip, I bought two pairs of sneakers, one right after the other. I seriously didn't even realize I had already bought a pair until I returned to the car with my second pair and discovered the bag sitting in the back seat...

{sigh} problems of a shoe addict. I'm sure some of you will understand.

The whole point of this post isn't to serve as a platform for my ramblings or to talk about my crazy shoe obsession! Today, I will be sharing loads of pictures of flatform sneakers that I have been craving since the Fall season. Apologies if I'm a little late in the bandwagon but I hope you enjoy this nonetheless.

So this has somehow turned into a Jeffrey Campbell Appreciation Post...not that I have a problem with that (hopefully, you don't either).

If it so happens that I end up straying away from my blog again, I promise to come back within a month. Most likely, I'll be coming up with some outfits for the spring/summer months in the next post so look forward to that :)

Speaking of shoes, I know in my last post I wrote something about sketching shoes and while I still have great interests, I haven't made much progress. BUT!

Here is one of them. I don't take credit for the design. I was actually inspired by a project that one of my classmates did in a Visual Merchandising class last semester and decided to draw it because I loved it so much.


Please ignore the embrace-the-relaxed-college-student-lifestyle hairdo and my choice of attire (two thumbs up for Big Bang Theory fans!).

Let me know how you guys have been and what you think of these shoes. I honestly love them but I'm sure it's not everyone's cup of tea or coffee or whatever caffeinated beverage you choose to consume.

See you all soon!

What do you guys think about clogs or clog-like shoes? I used to think they were so ... unusual and just not my thing. But now, I'm kind of in love with them. Especially the modern looking ones. But I'm really into the traditional clog-wedge shoe too. They would look uhhh-mazing with a chiffon maxi skirt or even just a pair of wide legged pants.

KOOLABURRA Khloe $198.00

Such a beauty, huh?


Until next week because I plan on hibernating for the weekend,
