I want that! Spring Flats

Spring is finally here and even though it was overcast and rainy all day yesterday, the new season has me thinking about what pieces I want to add to my closet in the next few months. One style that I can't seem to get enough of is Spring Flats. I am especially loving the cap toe and loafer styles that are so trendy right now. Below are some of my favorites that I have seen. What are some of your Spring must haves?

Rainy Days in Norcal

I am going home to Northern California this weekend and it is supposed to be rainy and cold the whole time I am there. My family and I intend on just hanging out and we don't have anything glamorous planned like my last trip home where we had a jam packed weekend of fancy restaurants, an overnight in Napa and a day trip to Monterey. Because of our laid back agenda, I am only packing comfortable "rainy day" clothes like rain boots, jelly flats (so they wont be ruined if they get wet) and a north face rain jacket and fleece. I like the idea of brightening up all the overcast days ahead of me with a bright watch like the Michael Kors one below, and since I will not be getting any color on this vacation, I intend to brighten my complexion with some much needed bronzer and highlighting cream.

A woman loves the way she looks in a great pair of heals, but lets face it, flats add a whole lot of comfort and look just as cute with that outfit.

Metallic is a great way to make an outfit sparkle, and you can wear it during all seasons (extra bonus points to you metallic). Check out the flats below, all under $50!
