Once Upon A Time There Was a Prom Night in Atlanta...and it was Done Gatsby Style

It began with a box. A brown box with Rent The Runway stamped on it to be exact. I'd just gotten my nails prepped and I was ready to open the bow and see my prom dress. I'd tried it on once in the RTR shop in Bergdorfs in NYC, and trying this dress on was the reason I chose it! I had to wait 3 weeks until I actually saw the dress again, so picking shoes and jewelry was pretty blind, yet it turned out all to be perfect!! I love the inside of the box, and the phrase on the inside "The dress is just the beginning," because, yes, it really was. 

New Shoe Sunday

Wow its been forever since I've posted!! That's going to be my opening for a while now (hopefully not...) but I'm back and I'm bring fashion back to my style blog! I recently got 2 pairs of shoes, and I haven't posted anything about style in forever, so I thought I'd do my first Shoe Sunday! 

The most recent pair that I received were a pair of Topshop Arabels. Literally the last ones...anywhere. I bought them off of the Nordstrom's website after failing to get to the Topshop store in New York, and I'm

a) amazed I got them 

b) in love with them, to the point where I haven't taken them off for 3 days

c) glad I waited.

The shoes weren't on sale in New York as I later found out, but when I got home, I saw that there was one pair available in my size online, so I paid for them ASAP, especially since they were $60 cheaper than normal. The shoes are amazing and I can't rave about them enough. The buckle adds a nice accent to the simple black leather, and the leather is stiff enough that the shoes hold their shape, but not tio the point that I can't walk in them. The heel is low and comfortable, and they are great walking shoes after they're broken in. The only problem I have with them is the back strap, it digs in sometimes when walking, but a little pad on the back can fix that.
