Coral, Gold and Sea-foam a perfect spring and summer color combination.  I’ve had this sea-foam sweater in my closet for quite sometime now.  I actually purchased it on clearance from Target towards the end of winter thinking it would be light enough and the perfect color for spring.  Seems like I was right.  I just wasn’t sure what colors I would pair with it, to help make it pop and then Barefoot Tess came to the rescue….

Barefoot Tess is an online shoe retailer that carries larger size women’s shoes from size 10-15.  So I was Über excited when I was given the opportunity to style and review the B.F.T  ”Charlotte” heel in coral/gold from Barefoot Tess, to style and review for you all. I love the rich coral color and the gold cap toe, gives this shoe that extra oomph.  It definitely rings true to their motto, “Because style doesn’t stop at a size 10.” These shoes are super comfortable, super cute and oh so stylish. Now note they do run a bit wide, but if your feet are a tad on the wide side like mine, then this would be a comfortable and great fitting shoe for you. I’m wearing a size 13 It states that the heel height is 3.5″ but when wearing this shoe it does not feel like that at all and it does not look like it is that high either.  It feels and looks more between 2″ and 2.5″ at the most, which I actually prefer because that makes them everyday wearable for me. So these lovelies will definitely be a part of my regular rotation this spring and summer.

Thank you so much for reading!

You buy one pair of shoes and get the lesser valued pair for 50% off.  It excludes their  green tag everyday value shoes.  Good deal in my opinion because their shoes are quite inexpensive, plus they also give a 10% off military discount, so a win-win-win situation for me.  You know I love a good deal. So as I was standing in line waiting to pay for my shoes, I notice this cute little Hawaiian boy standing completely still and staring up at me.  He looked to be about maybe three or four but he was tiny and not moving at all. I don’t even think he blinked.  So I  looked down and smiled.  He then, pointed at me and said, “you, big!”  I laughed and said, “yes, I am TALL” emphasis on the tall.   His mom and dad who were in front of me in line paying for their shoes, turn around.  The mom grabs the son as he is still standing frozen and staring at me and tells him,  ”it’s not nice, its rude to stare” and then apologizes to me. I smile and say,  ”it’s okay”. They leave the store and I noticed the mom was taller than the dad , who was also tiny by the way, and this made me chuckle to myself.  As they were walking away, the  little boy stops, turns around and walks up to the storefront glass window, smiles and waves good-bye to me.  I smiled and waved back.  I guess this “big” woman made a “tiny” new friend.
