wednesday: stuff under twenty

So what the heck is a paperwallet? It's actually pretty darn awesome. It's a super thin, super lightweight, expandable wallet made of Tyvek. Basically the updated 2011 version of the duct tape wallet. The basic ones, in every color of the rainbow, are $14.99 (free shipping!!) but I'm kind of partial to the $19.99 designer ones, like the rainbow check above. It has a cash compartment and 2 credit card slots. A nice alternative to other slim wallets made of hard plastic!

I have this totally weird thing for short-sleeve sweatshirt hoodies. I don't own any; I just gaze at them longingly, and this one fits the bill. This picture is actually not the most flattering. It actually has gracefully elegant (yeah, I can't believe I'm going there on Wet Seal merchandise either) sleeves and cute little off-shoulder epaulets. And comes in a pastel pink too!
$19.50 at Wet Seal

So this striped long-sleeve tee is not left in too many sizes, but there are XXS, XS, S, and M left in varying colors. I like the details like the high cuff and the gradient.

Who's sick of ruffles? Not I, said the walrus! If you're sick of ruffles, maybe I can sell you on rosette ruffles?
$19.99 (originally $34) at Macy's

And rounding out the morning, a perfect, perfectly affordable, casual spring/summer shoe!

taki mary jane pumps

I generally hate the in-your-face-ness of patent, and I generally hate the fuddy-duddy-ness of mary janes, butI think they cancel each other out beautifully here. And I like the color, and I like the heel height, and I like oh-so-much that they're not peeptoe!

$19.99 at Target

I'm sometimes hesitant about gladiator sandals because I imagine all those straps chafing after a while. Problem solved with these super-cheap cutout gladiators!

Guest Post: Crocs Prima Ballet Flats

Don’t think of it as a Croc. Think of it as a really cute and comfy rain shoe! Much more stylish than a chunky rubber boot, don’t you think?

$19.95 (was $24.95) at Endless.

Time to let your toes out for Spring. However, if your like me, I recommend a nice pedicure before exposure.

If you're 5'9", you especially need to be rocking high heels. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Guest Post: Buckle Ankle Boots

What I love most about these boots are the comfortable heel height and the neutral gray color. However, the side buckles make for interesting details that give it a sort of neo-Edwardian look.
