SPARKLE! All of us at Tipsy seem to have posted a lot of sparkly shoes in the past month or so, but who can blame us? Sparkle ’tis the perfect accessory for the season!

I think the rule should be…if you’re carrying a baby around in your stomach, you should get everything on your list…right!?!?!?!

1. Target, Simply Shabby Chic® Blue Linen Duvet Set: My house if over run with red…including my 2 guest rooms…I think this would tone down my fave color and add a lot of warmth.
2. Best Buy, Nikon D3100: You know, to take fabulous pics of my sure-to-be adorable bambino(a).
3. Anthropologie,  Beaded Swag Bib Necklace: I don’t think I have any yellow jewelry!
4. Amazon, Fiesta Oval Serving Bowl: I learned from my girl AK, you can never have too many serving pieces! 🙂
5. Amazon, Fiesta Utensil Crock: You know, to also break up the oh so much red in my house…
6. Endless.com, Tamarac Pile-lined Moccasin: These are for my soon to come swollen ankles…
7. The Container Store, Double Acrylic Shelves: I would actually use this as a small end table in my nursery…so it’s not “technically” for me.
8. Sur la Table, Cuisinart Mini Food Processor: I’m actually considering making my own baby food and I hear a food processor is a must…so again, “technically” not for me.

As you know from previous posts, I’m obsessed with boots this winter. Which is weird if you consider I probably won’t be able to get my feet into them come January.Anyway, I’ve managed to acquire several new pairs since last Spring and I have to share what I’m rockin’ right now. (Don’t worry, I didn’t pay this much for ANY of the boots you see here…I got AWESOME deals…you know, the kind of deals that make you tell everyone and their dog how much you actually spent.)

1. Corral Yellow-Red-Turquoise Butterfly boots
2. Old Gringo Leopartido
3. Nine West Convinceme

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I’m a bag lady, but with Christmas around the corner, I’m officially on a spending freeze. HOWEVER, if I’m on anyones Christmas list, I wouldn’t mind one of these beauties!

1. BIG BUDDHA Arlene Satchel
2. Nine West Emily Medium Flap
3. Magid Anna Satchel
4. Nine West Erica E/W Cross-Body
5. Nine West Dark Angel Shopper

Judging by my posts the past couple of weeks, I think I’m obsessed with boots! I don’t know what it is, but I want to make sure I have some cute options for this fall/winter. This time, I searched the latest boot fashion on endless.com and found some great new options!

Hmmm…which one should I choose….?

1. EMU Australia Women’s Kimba Hi Boot
2. Bandolino Women’s Shiante Bootie
3. Enzo Angiolini Women’s Rachey Bootie
4. FRYE Women’s Valerie Piped Bootie
5. DV by Dolce Vita Women’s Pax Knee-High Boot
6. Franco Sarto Women’s Rider Knee-High Boot

I found these bad boys while perusing through the sale on endless.com…not only are the cute, but they’re white (I have 0 white sandals) AND they’re only $20.26!!!

LADIES, Dolce Vita are my go to sandals for summertime, and I think these beauts should be mine your next purchase!

This brand is very high quality, are always super comfy, and these are a perfect gladiator-style sandal without being too over the top and making us less “trendy” people look silly.

I love these shoes on so many levels, but can’t currently buy them for the following reasons:

• A) They’re $72.00 and I think they need to go on sale a bit more….
• B) They’re also 4 1/4″ tall and that’s well above the 3″ limit I try to give myself. (I’m 5’11” and I have to admit that I do start to look like the amazon woman with super high heels…)

Are these worth throwing my reasons out the window or should I stick to my guns?
