THE RECAP: GRADUATION WEEKEND!

As you may know, I graduated last Saturday, May 17th, 2014 from University Maryland University College and I got the chance to celebrate with my closest friends and family. The weather was perfect and of course I was surrounded by so much positive energy and love that I couldn't ask for anything more. My girlfriend from LA came into town and the celebration festivities were underway, check out a few pictures from the weekend. Disclaimer: I stole most of these pictures from my friends lol (love yall...mean it) and of course most of my family pictures are on the professional camera so hopefully I get those soon and I can share a few with you all. Anyway, check out my unforgettable graduation weekend below:

SHOEGASM: Valentino "RockStud" T-Strap Pumps

My obsession with Valentino 'Rockstud' T-Strap Pumps is crazy right now! I've been prowling for Graduation shoes, I figure if I find a shoe then I'll find the dress. Crazy philosophy but it works for me, over the past year I've been lusting after a timeless shoe that is edgy and classic at the same time and I discovered the Valentino 'Rockstud' T-Strap Pump that makes me feel all tingly inside.

 

 

The pumps comes in plenty of colors (neon green, nude, pink, red, black, blue and white) and will be the perfect addition to my Spring wardrobe, don't you think? The T-Strap pump is a perfect trend to embrace this season so why not break them out at my graduation.

 

 I love my Jimmy Choo, Christian Louboutin and Saint Laurent shoes but I think I'm ready for my first pair of Valentino heels. They just seem so grown up and sexy at the same time, who would not want that? The classic T-Strap has me swooning and I think these could go perfectly with boyfriend jeans and a tank or even a cocktail dress. Did I convince you that these are a winner?!

 

I still have time to decide but I'm definitely leaning towards these babies, for $945 I have some deciding to do! What do you think? Graduation shoes or no?!
