I channeled my inner Barney for this outfit. The dinosaur, not the high-end department store. Mint is huge this season and these purple pumps are also huge…6” to be exact. It seemed like a perfect match.
I absolutely adore the city of Boston, but my one complaint is that not enough people wear heels. (I say “people” and not “girls” because if the Real Housewives of Atlanta taught me anything it’s that a man can WORK IT in a pair of stilettos). I don’t like the fact that I’m totally out of place most nights when I put on 5-6 inchers. Does it completely stop me? No. But it’s definitely the reason these bright, fun pumps don’t get worn more often.
What do you guys think of the mint trend? I’ve never had a ton of green in my closet, but I’m loving the shade.

Love the colors…the lace is very pretty. I have yet to try the 5 inch heels tho lol. Seems like I’m most comfortable in 3 inchers. But….never know…
Haha you can always work your way up!
lovely outfit!
These colours look so good on you!

your blog is awesome, keep up the great work, Loretta xx
Thanks, Loretta!
To H&M I go. And I love te heels!
You won’t be disappointed at H&M–these pants were only $27!
i love mint, you look amazing! i live in the country and i think i’m the only one out here who wears heels! but whatevaa haters gonna hate and my shoes are sick! (and so are yours!)
That’s the attitude to have! Nothing can keep me from my heels haha
I would say in Minneaplolis it is very common for ladies and men to wear the heels. Especially at the Gay 90s. I just don’t because I am already almost 6 feet tall. I would love to but I often am mistaken for a man or tower over most people in the area. I really enjoy the mint trend and think this outfit is very summery and pretty.
I hear ya–at 5’9″ I definitely don’t need to wear heels but…I just can’t help myself
Reblogged this on noblek2k.
Another thing about Boston is all the cobblestone and just bumpy in general streets. Those crevices are a nightmare for heels – but you’re not alone! Looking good!
Especially Faneuil Hall–can’t even count how many times I’ve hitched a piggyback ride over those cobblestones
I love this! Totally on trend, and the blue pumps just make the outfit.
Thanks, Megan!
