Hula hoop class…

Thursday, January 29th, 2009

One of my New Year’s resolutions was to join a gym. On my first day in there, I was corralled into a hula hoop dance class, which was amazing!

I had been struggling with a big decision…flats or heels. So, I decided to order a pair of both. I got these dressage boots from Urban ($124) (they came in black, but the site no longer has them available).

And for the heels, I got this pair of Fornarina boots ($179). I’m trying out piperlime for the first time, seems like a good deal, as they offer free shipping and free returns.

These Frye Bonnie Riding boots were a close contender ($249), but upon reading the reviews it seems as though the straps all break.

And, then I was in Anthropologie and spotted this pair of Frye boots ($318). It just so happened there was an open box of size 8′s sitting there, so of course I had to try them on. They were really cute, but I had to pass them up since I’m on the prowl for black boots.

Obamamania…

I’m loving Michelle Obama’s style. Her mixing of high and low fashion from day to day is so of the times. Plus, I’m a huge JCREW fan so it’s great to see her wearing it, and her daughters look amazingly cute in the JCREW kids line. I also like that she has taken an interest in small designers such as Jason Wu (for the sparkly inauguration dress) and Isabel Toledo for the yellow number in the bottom image.
