Recent Summer Shoe Purchases!

Recent Summer Shoe Purchases! by vodka-caviar featuring leather ballerina shoes

Since I was unemployed last summer I obviously didn't make too many unnecessary purchases {sadly}! So after 2 full summers of the same shoes and sandals I was in desperate need of some new footwear for both work and everyday! I made a Forever 21 purchase online and picked up a pair of these strappy sandals in brown for $45. Next up, I was in terrible need of a new pair of ballerina flats! I loved the ALDO ones I bought maybe 2 years ago so I tried to find a similar style and grabbed a pair of cute pink flats called Adrirawien for $60. Finally, this past weekend I hit up the Niagara Outlets with my friend before her birthday party. Nine West was having a sale buy 1 get 1 50%! I obviously couldn't pass that up! So after much deliberation I decided on these and these! A fairly successful shoe binge! All I need is new pair of flat sandals and I think I'm all set!*

weekend snaps!

This past weekend I celebrated my 28th with 12 of my closest friends! It has been 2 years since I've celebrated my birthday with all my friends and it was such a good opportunity for all of us to take a minute to slow down from our uber busy lives and re-connect! I really didn't take too many photos of my party {I totally spaced and got too excited} but below are the snaps I did manage! During the day by best friend and I went to The 10 Spot Beauty Bar to indulge in some nail pampering with Gel Colour Manis and some nail art! Then it was time to party! The night started off at my condo with Prosecco Punch and some nibbles then it was off to The Drake Hotel for a late dinner in their Sky Yard! Post dinner we migrated over to a cute bar in Toronto's Little Portugal  called Camp 4 for some cocktails and dancing! It was such a great night and I'm so lucky to have such a solid group of girl friends!*
