I have always loved those gladiators, except some people say that glads should not be worn with socks, but I dont see whats wrong with it

little parisienne said...

what a cute headline-poem^^ your sandals are so adorable!!!!

Siljesfashion said...

Lobe it! Just got those sandals at ebay and thats one of the way I plan on wearing them.

nv said...

I'm liking that socks and sandals trend, its nice because it isn't like "old man socks and sandals" haha. Anyway for the DIY project I'm going to try to use fabric paints that little kids used to make "pop-out" decorations on cloth and stuff. I'm pretty sure you can get them at any craft store or walmart

Miss at la Playa said...

Romany said...

As usual, pretty outfit! :)
That's amazing, I seriously never would have thought of pairing heels with socks. I'd be too afraid, I think. But you rock it. Nice work.
Those lyrics sound familiar but I don't think I know the song...?

So many people have these heels, and I loveee them! there so cute. Im really liking the socks+sandals combo this year, I never thought I would. I love your top+skirt as well.

Alya said...

Fashion Tidbits said...

to think that i thought that sandals paired with socks was the ultimate fash disaster a few years back make me chortle. fashion certainly does make its rounds.

you look fab in it by the way!

The Seeker said...

You look so cute, great gladiators, and you rock them with the socks (a trend that I'm not very much into, but I think it's because I'm too old for that).

Hmm, I've never been a fan of seeing stocking or sock covered toes peeping out. You seem to get away with it but.
