At the end of the day it all comes down to the shoes! If you haven't realized, I have a ridiculous shoe obsession (hence the name of the blog). I had the ultimate pursuing shoes moment back in May and the outcome of the great pursuit are these gorgeous metallic heels:

I die for these. Yes, the straps were a little rough on the ankles the first time around but I would wear these all day everyday because they're beyond fab!  J. Crew makes quality shoes but I usually opt for their flats or sandals since most of the heels are around 3"; this short girl needs her height. These just happen to be 3 7/8" and every inch is oh-so amazing. Metallic accessories are HUGE for fall and the best part is that they go with everything and anything.
