The Steele Maiden: Closet Classics - Red Pointed Toe Pumps
One of my goals for the blog this year was to focus on really building a closet full of things I love and can wear again and again – and also to be more open with you on exactly where I’m spending my hard earned cash.  Lately I’ve taken a new approach.  Before shopping – I scroll back through my recent pins on Pinterest.  Have I been gravitating towards neutrals? Then a cozy knit sweater in winter white would be wise.  Have the pins been denim heavy?  Then perhaps it’s time to look for a new pair of jeans.  This works for me because I tend to pin looks that have elements similar to those in my closet, not say, ball gowns just because I think they’re pretty.  Well for the past month or so, it seemed I couldn’t get enough of casual looks, made instantly more pulled together with red pointed toe pumps.  While they’d obviously be great with a dressier look, I love a sleek, sexy pump with denim, knits, and easy layers.  Instantly elevated.  So I finally picked up a pair for myself and they’re just as perfect as I’d imagined.  Plus, I’ve already got a ton of ideas on how to wear them from the aforementioned pins.  See how that works out?  I’ll be sharing more of my Closet Classics as we go along, but I’d love to hear some of yours as well!

  1. I love that idea. I’ve definitely started to gravitate towards the same. Something about taking pictures of everything I wear and having to look at it again and again makes me want a more streamlined look. LOVE the red pumps, think I need a paid. p.s. I’ve been voting, fingers crossed! xx
