Update

Having your own blog is great, especially when you can share bits and pieces of your life and people are actually interested. 

Every year I say "I can't wait for the summer time so I can post on IM2E more", only to come to find out that some is the most whack fashion season of all time. Even though I want to blog about lifestyle for the majority, it would be nice to stick to the basis of why I created this blog. 

Fall is approaching and I'm excited. 

The one sole sandal heels above are my purchase of the week! 

About two weeks ago I starred into my closet, looking for something to wear. Only to come to find out that I wasn't able to put any outfits together. The hilarious part about that was, I had a full closet with everything I needed. Then the light bulb lit. It come to my realization that I didn't have the shoe variety for the type of clothing pieces that I was creating. ALL I HAD IN MY CLOSET WAS SNEAKERS! ROSHES, AIR FORCE 1s. 

To me, that was variety. I tend to forget that I change my style everyday. The way my closet was last year and the way my closet is this year; two completely different things. 

Here, on IM2E, we're all about sharing things that are affordable. I know who my readers are, and I won't put material on here that won't be favorable to their pockets. 

Even though I've written on here about how much I prefer online shopping to in-store shopping, I decided to do both and stop in some store that I usually wouldn't purchase shoes. At this point, I needed an emergency shoe closet revamp. I would have rather spent all my money on 100 pairs of different shoes than to go out and buy the one pair of shoes I really want, but then have only those shoes to wear. 

1. First Stop - Charlotte Rousse? (I know I know, so unlike me? Keep reading)

Before that day, I had never purchased anything from Charlotte Rousse. If I wanted to expand/change my wardrobe, I had to try new things and open up to other stores. 

Walking in, I became discouraged as soon as I saw "acid wash" jeans in the front. 

Looking straight ahead, these caught my eyes! The color and the structure both grabbed my attention immediately. 

I forgot the price, but I'm 97% sure that they were $34.99

I ordered these last two from @Forever21! To be honest, Forever 21 are almost always uncomfortable! These have been pretty bearable for short term wearing. On my long days where I'm running many errands or spending much time outside of my house, none of these are at the top of my list.

The slippers are so chic! A must purchase! I could not believe they were from Forever 21 when I received them in the mail. Of course, because they never have 

Again, I'm just trying to be more affordable on the shoes side and permit more variety. 

Catch me with with these slides on in the fall/winter! Maybe with some socks on!

Thanks for reading! Keep checking back for more updates :)
