So, last couple of seasons has brought us midis and maxis, midis and maxis. That ain't nothin'...Now we have come across the maxi's maxi at Christian Siriano Spring 2012.
Gorgeous velvet for miles, and paired with adorable stripes. Oh my, what a lovely color.
But oh my, what a difficult look to pull off, because gorgeous velvet for miles must come with legs for miles. We say...YEA. We love - but proceed with caution. Thoughts?

Shopgirl Recs: La Michoacana Taqueria: A Review!
Iowa City
319-341-TACO
Hours: Tues-Sun 10-9
Take-out available
I had always heard such great things about the taco truck, how delicious and authentic the tacos were etc. but I could never make it out there for some reason. And it turns out I missed it. The taco truck is no longer. But it’s not really gone, it’s just been turned into a little restaurant near Paul’s Discount. Hurray! A couple of Sundays ago my family and I came out to La Michoacana Taqueria’s to give these tacos a try.
P.S. I highly recommend the California burrito, not really authentic but it contains french fries which is a nice little treat. Also the fajita burrito is good.
And if you're coming for dinner on the weekend, it can get busy so be prepared for a little wait.

Thursday Drool: Dream Shoes Now at Revival
We don't usually like to do Thursday Drools on in store resale items. Drools are for fantasy items, not the attainable! This is a VERY special situation. Because attainable or not, this Shopgirl has made a fool of herself over these shoes. It feels as though someone reached into our brain and custom created shoes just for us (but got the size wrong).
Loeffler Randall Washed Out Cheetah Ankle Boots (this pair really hurts our heart)
Size 9.5 - $124
BE&D Studded Stiletto Mary Janes (seriously INCREDIBLE)
Size 9.5- $106
DKNY Spotted Pony Hair Stiletto Lace Ups (so fantastically Cruella DeVille-one of our style icons)
Size 10 - $68
Come and snag them friends, because this baby footed Shopgirl can only dream and drool.

Shopgirl Styles: You Can Never Have Too Many Red Shoes...
So says Shopgirl Anna...
"I feel everyone should have at least one pair of red shoes. They are equal parts mood and confidence builder the moment I put them on my feet. I like to have a pair for every possible occasion. "
Starting from the back right:
1. Vintage Gloria Vanderbilt Suede Booties- "I found them at Revival my second week of working there. I knew at that moment that I was going to love working here.
2. Vintage Justin's Cherry Red Work Boots- "These gems took me all through the winter. They are work boots, so the more you wear them, the better they look! Found at Black Cat Vintage in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, one of my favorite places."
3. My red Saltwaters -"My go-to Summer shoe this year."
4. Vintage Stuart Weitzman Suede Low-Heeled Flats- "Given to me by a family friend who noticed my little red shoe problem. Not pictured are the awesome gold studs on the back."
5. Brandless Cork Wedges w/ Ankle Strap- "Purchased over 10 years ago, still extremely wearable. The leather flower and ankle strap give every look a bit of a 'pin up' touch."
6. Vintage Etienne Aigner Leather Loafers- "Scored last week at Revival! Oooooooh, I can't wait for Fall. It will be full of adorable ankle socks, cuffed jeans and these bad boys."
xoxo
