This year marks the 15 year passing of the earth angel who was Aaliyah. She was my icon growing up; her style, music, passion for her art and drive was an inspiration to myself and many. I remember listening to her music all the time; in fact, her "Are You That Somebody" track is what made me fall in love with music. My 10 year old self wanted to be just like Aaliyah; just as beautiful, just as defiant and just as talented. I still do!
By now, you should know how much I love a strappy heel. I think it gives a sexy appeal to any outfit. Several posts ago I demonstrated how simple it was to up-cycle old heels in your shoe closet into strapped-up heels (see here). I went shopping at Winners and came across these cute pair of suede strapped-up heels. I fell in love with the mossy green color and immediately knew they would be perfect for pairing with a lots of different outfits in my closet.
