About the Lil Tings

Hello there! Welcome back to my blog! Assuming you've seen my short ootd video w/ Tweety then you've seen what Tweety and I went through. But what we went through were trivial matters. I'm here to remind you not to worry about the little "tings". 

Most of the time we can find ourselves a bit irascible. We can be full of angst and dread. When in fact if you take everything else into perspective things aren't that bad. You've heard this more than a hundred dozen times but it could be worse! Trust me, I have to tell myself this always. It is only a spec in time so don't get angry when the car up front didn't hit 50 mph as soon as the light turned green (Don't have road rage!) lol. Remember there are things you have control over and things you don't. Do not let anger or frustration take over your life! Yes, unfortunate things happen but that's only preparing you to appreciate the better things and heighten your joy when good things come around. Take it easy, I'll be back soon!

Derby or Oxford?

Hey beautiful people!

Originally I had discussed that my shoes were a women's version of the traditionally known Oxford, but in my recent finding, it is actually a Derby! The reason for this is the lace system.  What do you think my shoes are? Open or Closed lacing? It is open lacing! Silly me!

Quick Fact:

Derby's are also called Blucher, the terms are used interchangably without getting too technical. But there is a slight difference in the two if you'd like to know refer to this video at 2'30".

These babies are so easy to play with. Beige is a subtle neutral color, so you can definitely make it fun contrasting it with colorful socks or maybe ruffled socks for those who want to be adventurous with their palette. 

Here I paired them with Tommy Hilfiger socks that perfectly matched my "Bonjour" red shoulder bag. Matching small details such as earrings to belt, top to shoelaces, and as an example here, bag to socks, can definitely finish off a look.
