Camel Toe

Hi there lovebugs,
Happy Monday to you. If you are sleeping in because of Columbus Day, I hate you. Not really, it's mostly jealousy mixed with the fact that I'd love to be under my covers right now. 

First things first, the giveaway winner. Congrats to Alli who won the Cove Necklace! I'll be email you shortly. And don't forget, free shipping ALL month at After Sunset with the code CAPITALBARBIE.

Alright, now the real question, why are we talking about camel toes. Well, they should be talked about, and if you spot one, you should tell that person, it's kind of like the bottom half version of spinach stuck in your teeth. Ok, but really, I'm talking today about camel flats. I love camel because it's such a creamy and easy neutral for any season and any outfit.

Alloy, Frida Loafer, $24

Such a great neutral for some bf jeans and a trapeze sweater.

Urban Outfitters, Deena & Ozzy Patti-Pyramid Stud Skimmer, $34

The ballet slipper makes the studs a little less edgy.

Modcloth, Taupe Model Flat, $35

We all know I'm a sucker for a bow, and this camel flat with just a touch of bejeweled is perfect.

Nordstrom, Nine West Jeleena Flat, $78

Quite a chic flat, the metallic heel makes it for me.

See, camel toes are always a bad thing. But most of the time they are. On shoes though, full speed ahead.

Be fabulous today!

Giveaway!

Hey lovebugs,
Today we have a giveaway that I have been so excited to announce. It is from one of my favorite DC lifestyle bloggers, Chelsea from Life is a Sunset. 

Let me tell you a little bit about Chelsea, she is one amazing chick. If you want to read about the life of a optimistic and honest young woman, read this blog. Chelsea recently went through a very difficult time in her life, she lost her mom. I can't tell you how amazingly genuine she was chronicling her feelings and experiences on her blog. Chelsea is always looking for the silver lining or as she says, "Sunsets give us hope for tomorrow; for living a new day."

Now for the fun part. In addition to a blog, Facebook, and Twitter Chelsea is also making her own jewelry in her very own Etsy shop. Yeah, you thought you were busy, spend a day in her shoes! I've partnered with Chelsea to giveaway one of her handmade Cove necklaces.
