April Showers and Lots of Links

I feel like it hasn't been raining as much as it is supposed to this month. Quite frankly, I think that the whole famous quote about April has given up all hope and shifted over to May. We probably could use more rain right now with the pollen caking on everything and effecting the populations health. Oh well, such is life.

Today is a beautiful Thursday, therefore, I decided to post a little somethin' somethin'. I keep getting caught up with life and when I make a mental note about a good post it just gets lost in the hubbub of bills, work out schedules and other afternoon agendas.

This summer's fashion is versatile to say the least. I thought neon would hide in the Dubstep community amongst the youth of America but that doesn't seem to be the case. Designers like booming brand Michael Kors have justified that neon is chic & classy and rather intimate. POP in the Summer Catalog.

Sidenote:I just bought my first pair of MK logo Jelly's, yeaaa-Designer Sandals recommended to me by a good friend. She told me they are comfy AND you can hose them off. SOLD! To the girl that squishes around in her leather sandals all summer. Looks like I will have to retire the Rainbows...maybe ;)

OH! So one of my favorite blogs in the whole wide blogosphere is Apartment_34 and she deserves all the credit from my post. I want more people to notice what she does. Erin Hiemstra, @apartment_34, is the mastermind behind such a whimsical concept, her molto trendy blog. She blogs about "all things pretty" in fashion & decor and she does a fabulous job at it. I was scrolling through a post the other week when I was captivated by Freda Salvador feet dancing around!

Two talented friends went into business together (I guess it does work out sometimes) to create the concept of Freda Salvador. If you are from the San Francisco area, lucky to know that their first shop was conceived there and you have the pleasure of exploring their homey, shoe-haven. Looks like they specialize in "all things pretty" as well but add pure sophistication to their shoe. Each design looks like it is tailor-made to be a show stopper yet humble enough to wear everyday. I like me a good shoe as you know, I also like when shoes hold up with each extraneous use of day-to-day activity. Don't you agree? Yes, they have to make you look great and these look like the real deal. Not a sermon just a thought because I believe in this tight-nit duo. I hope these two gals sore and are an inspiration for young business owners trying to make a name for themselves!
Since I'm an east coast girl, you can find their shoes on SHOPBOP or their SITE!
