A Desert Retreat

Eve's Outfit Details:

Dress & Hat Just Fab | Sandals Sam & Libby for Target (sold out) | Necklace Stella & Dot (sold out) | Bracelet Maria Shireen | Clutch Imoshion | Sunglasses Zenni Optical

A month ago we took a quick weekend trip to Scottsdale, Arizona. We had never been, and were excited to travel somewhere unfamiliar and sunny. California is sunny, don't get us wrong. But on the Monterey Peninsula (where we live) the average temperature is about 65 degrees year-round. So to us, Arizona was going to be REALLY hot. Eve brought along her new adorable dress from Just Fab and paired it with her trusty Sam & Libby sandals from Target we have featured in several other posts. She also brought along her new hat from Just Fab Hello Sunshine - perfect for keeping the sun out of her face. But our favorite accessory was the Imoshion lemon pattern clutch. The perfect size for fitting all the essentials for warm weather i.e. sunglasses, extra sunscreen, lip gloss, phone, and a large wallet.

GuiltySoles: Meet Your New Favorite Shoe Boutique

There are few things in life one really cannot have too much of...diamonds, champagne, and cute shoes included. We are always on the hunt for cute yet affordable shoes. We have purchased budget friendly shoes from lots of popular stores and have found that you really do get what you pay for. So how can a girl get her perfect pair(s) without breaking the bank? No need to fret. We found the perfect store for any shoeaholics needs: GuiltySoles.

Marilyn Monroe once said โ€œGive a girl the right shoes and she can conquer the worldโ€, and we couldnโ€™t agree more. When you have your perfect pair of heels, booties, or flats on you radiate confidence, and feel like you can conquer anything. We love that feeling, and want everyone to feel that way.

We discovered GuiltySoles from a Facebook ad, and decided to take a leap and try them out. GuiltySoles has an awesome selection of trendy shoes all at affordable prices. This made picking the styles we wanted really difficult! We ended up agreeing upon the LOLA flats and the CASEY heels (lucky us - we have the same shoe size and can share!).

When they arrived, we were surprised by how pretty the packaging was. Usually budget shopping means ugly grey plastic shipping bags. Not GuiltySoles! The shipping box had the phrase "oh so guilty" on it which was cute, and inside were beautifully packaged shoe boxes. Each shoe came with a silky dust bag to hold your precious pair...we really loved this detail. Another awesome addition to the Casey heels was the replacement heel caps, which we found out come with every high heel purchase! The quality of each pair of shoes was impeccable, and impressed us for the price. In fact you really donโ€™t need to feel guilty for splurging at all. Call yourself a โ€œGood Soleโ€ (wink wink)!
