April 28, 2011 -- Visit to the Senate
For a more formal look, feel free to change out the leather jacket for a black boyfriend blazer (3/4 sleeve) and the black flats for black pumps! Black shoes + black tights = the longest-looking legs of all time.

April 19, 2011 -- A Cold In Paris :-( by climbingrose09 featuring plastic shades
But can't stop wandering around! Until, of course, my faithful comfy-pumps start putting a blister on my right heel and I'm forced to retire to bed and stream "Network" while eating straight out of the peanut butter jar. Parisian pastries won't make me fat, but that might.

April 16, 2011 -- Free Walking Tour and Class Readings by climbingrose09 featuring scoop neck tops
The first time I've whipped out the sneakers since getting to Paris. Shamed as I was to wear them (especially at the beginning of tourist season), my feet were so grateful for the respite from heels and city flats that it will NOT be the last time.
