They had a lot of items that aren’t available in my local branch.  I have noticed that day that a lot of women were wearing this particular style of shoes. Not exactly this but something that resembles this. Found two women wearing them at Muji alone.  Look at the adorable strawberry heel!  But experience taught me not to trust C&K straps.  Did you read my post about my pretty pink shoes?  There’s a white version of this too, that I really liked.  Lately, I’ve been consciously looking for heeled shoes. It seems my lower back can’t handle flats anymore because of my scoliosis.  It sounds weird, I know, but that’s how I feel.  Such a nice structured bag! I love these bags, too, but they’re too big for me.  My shoulders and scapula can’t hand...

Soft Saturday Diaries: Slowing Down at S&R, NoBrand, and a Wonderful Dinner at Home

  Some Saturdays aren’t for adventures. They’re for strolling down wide aisles, discovering little gems, and coming home to something warm and easy. This was one of those Saturdays — simple, unhurried, and unexpectedly lovely. But first, ✨️ Today's Look Breakdown Eyes: BYS Simply Nude Palette Nails: Golden Cap Oil-Based Nail Polish in Purplish Red Lips: Minimalist 08 Glossy Brilliant 🛒 Aisle Therapy We didn’t plan to buy much, just our weekly water run. but I took pictures anyway — because I’ve learned that even the quiet days deserve to be captured.
