The Serpent Fringe

Last weekend, Ted and I attended our close friend's party, usually a semi-formal. Well, this party has become a yearly tradition as a way to part our close friends before everyone leaves for college.

Let's just say while shopping for an outfit, the first (and only) thing that caught my eyes were these amazing Jeffrey Campbell fringe shoes. I absolutely love them, but I'll admit that they make my legs look short, so I have to experiment ways to prevent my legs from looking stump - I think higher hems will do.

I spent the rest of the day frustrated as I went to numerous shopping locations for an affordable dress that would look good with my new finds. I settled with this see-through dress at Urban Outfitters. I'm not too crazy about it, and I ended up returning it the next day. I mean, I really don't think it's worth more than fifty bucks.

Needless to say, I took very good care of the dress being that I passed out at 11pm in her little brother's room; I still haven't lived it down. For a narrow chance at redemption, I did manage to wake up at 1:30 and continued to mingle, so missing almost three hours of the party wasn't that bad - I guess.

• Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell

I almost forgot to include my new favorite ring in the whole entire world:


It's by Samantha Wills, purchased at Nordstroms. I have this serious infatuation with snakes; it might be the fact I'm born in the year of the snake. Who knows.

P.S. eBay listings are ending in two days!
