geek chic

I've been kind of toying around with the idea of wearing socks with heels like I've seen around in magazines and in the J.Crew catalog. What do you think: silly or chic?

I love how it makes this simple outfit kind of funky...

love this green with the black!

I love how the green socks echo the feathers in the belt!

These give a neutral ensemble a punch of springy color!

What do you think?

can you bare it?

I'm going without shoes today for as much as I can (and still be able to keep my job). It's just a little something we can all do to pose the question and raise awareness. Check out the TOMS website for the whole movement...

Happy Thursday!

up from the grave He arose!

"The angel said to the women, 'Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples: 'He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.' Now I have told you." '

Matthew 28:1-7

Christos Anesti! (and now you say "Alithos Anesti!")
