Day 16: Blau

The first word that popped into my head when I thought of a title for this post was blue, so I thought I'd make it more interesting and put it in German..only, it's pretty much the exact same word..oops. I just finished my final exam of the first round of tests (literally 30 minutes ago), and I came home to change shoes.. you see, as much as I love these wedges, and they are really comfortable (really, they are), I'm pretty sure I sprained my foot a few days ago. It's been bothering me since Thursday, and it's just been getting worse..except for Saturday, on which day I wore these wedges. I think the arch of the wedges is more comfortable for my foot, rather than stretching out my foot in flats every time I walk. I don't know, and I'm certainly no expert on sprained anything, through all of my years in sports, I never did anything of the sort. I've got awful arthritis in my knee (I'm old, I know), but that's about it. So, I thought maybe wearing the wedges would make things easier; they don't hurt my foot like flats have been, but uhm.. walking on campus, in heels, is not fun. At all. My foot got all slippery inside my shoe, and it was a miracle I made it back to my car. I probably looked absolutely ridiculous the last 100 feet or so. 

Anyway, I'm going to wrap it and ice it tonight, and if doesn't get better in the next few days, I'll go to the doctor. You know, I'm pretty sure I did this while jogging down my hallway to answer the door for the pizza man. My hallway. I live an adventurous life, you guys. 

Welp, here's my blau Tuesday outfit post, possible sprained foot and all: 



If you'll notice, my right foot is slightly more swollen than my left (or I'm just crazy and think it is). Hopefully this goes away soon, I don't like limping around like an old lady, lol. On to the clothes portion: I love this bag, it's pretty much the perfect size for running around town, and it's such a fun color, perfect for spring and summer. I wanted something cozy, yet comfortable to take my exam in this morning, so this sweater was perfect and, of course, my boyfriend jeans are my go-to for comfort. Plus, my hair lion's mane was looking extra curly (uhm, wavy?) this morning, so I decided to just go with it. 

How do y'all handle walking around in heels? Do you just deal? Or are you a flats girl? I'm definitely more a flats type of girl, but I own about a million pairs of heels..I kind of feel like maybe I should start wearing them more often than just on Sunday mornings and date nights. Hopefully I'll have a job that allows me to wear them too!

  1. This looks super comfortable!
    I wear heels mostly to church like you Date going out. I just can't be bothered with heels to school. Wedges would work though.

  2. i'm a flats girl for life. i can't even wear heels to interviews anymore because i can't handle it. low, low kitten heels and wedges without the crazy high platform in the front are about all i can manage, so i mostly stick to interesting (glitter, leopard) flats. i love these wedges though and actually have them in grey. if i have to wear heels somewhere, they are my go-to. i wish i had them in teal!

    1. They're pretty great! I'm pretty sure they're making me into a wedges type of girl, rather than just outright heels. But, I love my flats, they make life so much easier.

  3. That bag is incredible! I hope your ankle heals quickly!

    I'm a heel-wearing girl myself, though I just love shoes! Hahah!

    1. Thanks, Ashliegh! I'm glad the weather's starting to warm up a bit so I can whip out my bright colored bags more often. And I totally agree, shoes are the one thing I can't say absolutely no to.. ;]

  4. Love those heels (they look kinda like my red wedges in my 30!) -- though they're probably not great for a wounded ankle. Take care of yourself!

    1. Haha, probably not! Which is why they came off as soon as I could get 'em off. :)

  5. Your shoes are beautiful!! Very eye catching, I love it.

    I'm more of a flats girl when I'm not at work. I feel like I can cover more ground at a faster pace that way. ;)

    1. Thanks, Michelle!
      And I definitely agree, I'm already pretty slow when it comes to walking, heels just hinder my progress more ;)

  7. Ouch, sounds painful! I am definitely more of a flats girl for that exact reason... I can walk in wedge boots but that's about it haha. At least those wedges are gorgeous!

  8. I'm a flats girl, but it's because I have to at work. I think once I go back to school I'll wear heels a little more often :)

  9. oh nooo Kristina!! I'm so sorry to hear about your poor foot! :( I've broken like. almost all of my toes as some point or another so I can agree with you and say that when you use something as much as your feet/toes, you definitely do NOT want there to be anything wrong with them. I will definitely be praying for healing!

    And your sweater is awesome. Looks SO comfy!

    2. Hahah, it is my foot :)

      And thank you, I hope nothing's truly wrong and it's just a bad bruise or a slight sprain. I'm going to have to go to the doc in the morning, bleh.
