What I’m Obsessed With Now!

By 134 Comments

MAKE SURE YOU READ TO THE END OF THIS POST FOR A
FABULOUS GIVEAWAY!

And GAP is 30% off.  Click HERE to shop!
I highly suggest you get THESE shorts.
SOMEBODY I know may have purchased the white ones….and the olive green ones….
and the denim ones.  
Okay, maybe it was me. 
*************************************************
So, what am I obsessed with now? 

Well this first one will come as no surprise.
I hardly believe it myself, but I’m about to talk about THESE shoes again.
Yep, I am. 
I know.
I can’t help myself. 
It’s like I think it’s my personal responsibility to spread the wedge love to the ends of the earth.
Let’s make a deal….

I promise to stop talking about them when you ladies stop talking about them.

I am getting at least 1 (and sometimes as many as 4-5) e-mails, blog comments, or facebook messages each and every day telling me how much you guys LOVE the shoes just as much as I do!

thankyouverymuch

I thought I would highlight some of the comments and e-mails for those of you that are still doubting the pure awesomeness of these wedges. 

(A small number of you did comment that they were too tall for your liking, but the majority of you are in love.)
And for the record:
If loving these is wrong, I don’t want to be right.

I am wearing them in putty above (the shots are taken on 2 different days…with 2 different pairs of jeans…and 2 different shades of toenail polish). I’ve been wearing the heck out of these shoes.

They are a really great neutral. Not grey. Not nude. But more of a taupe.
They are really really pretty.
Totally pretty enough to wear with a church dress, but totally sassy enough to wear with shorts.
They are kind of like that girl we all know that is the incredibly sought after combination of cute AND beautiful at the same time.  Do you know her?  The girl we would all hate if she wasn’t so flipping nice too.  Yeah.  You know the one.

So, here are just some of the comments and e-mails I’ve received:

I just bought the wedges in putty yesterday. When I tried them on in a store a woman came over to me and said “OMG, your legs look fabulous in those!!!”. SOLD!

Beth

Dear Skeptics,
I am the Wedge Queen. I wear them every single day…I own dozens of pairs…you will never find any one more knowledgeable on the subject of wedges. That being said, I have purchased 2 pair of these famous wedges because they are the most comfortable wedges I’ve ever worn. Period. Trust Sheaffer. She would never lead you astray. In this instance, she has led you to the wedge promise land. 

Buy them. Today. Right now.
XOXO
Shay a.k.a. The Wedge Queen 
You convinced me on the wedges and my putty pair came in yesterday too! I was so excited to put them on and you know what? You were right!! The most comfortable wedge I’ve ever had on my feet! Love love love. I can’t wait to wear them. Yup. It’s going to snow here today 🙁 but I will wear them soon. Everyday. Thank you!
Sarah N.
 
I’m not ordinarily a wedge person….but I totally fell to the peer pressure. AND I AM SO GLAD I DID! These wedges are so comfortable. I got the putty color too, and they really do go with everything. I’m going to order a second pair. Which color do you suggest?

People shouldn’t doubt you! These wedges are fantastic. I’ve read the other comments, and they are tall, but I don’t think they are too tall at all. Just the right height to work well with my trouser jeans that I normally wear a heeled boot with. They look great with all of my skinny jeans too. Can hardly wait to break them out with shorts and sundresses. Thanks for introducing them to us!

I wear wedges ALL THE TIME (like Shay). And I completely agree. They are by far the most comfortable wedges I own. I bought 2! The pinky red color (forgot what it’s called), and the putty color. Both are awesome! The only question is now…do I get the black pair or the yellow pair next? Not even kidding. ha!
Sandy
 
I had read the first blog post about these wedges and thought “Man, those are so cute.” And then went about my business. Two days later I’m walking around Nordstrom and see these shoes. I tried on the black ones and have been hooked ever since! I’m debating what color I should get next-I can’t decide between yellow, turquoise, and putty-suggestions are welcome. These are seriously the best wedges I’ve had!! Thanks for the recommendation!
Danielle

First I have to say that I love following your blog! You have definitely pinspired me and you’re hilarious! I don’t normally buy shoes without trying them on, but with your encouragement, I ordered two! I got the putty and black yesterday and don’t regret it! I will wear them all the time!! Thanks!
Kelsey
 

Decided to succumb to the wedge pressure and bought myself a pair in black. I would tell you how I liked them but my 16 year old daughter has been wearing them non stop. So I guess the only option is to but another pair!
Trish Allen
SEE?
You people totally agree with me!
Oh…and a salesperson at Nordstrom told Shay earlier this week that he has sold more of this shoe than he ever has of any other shoe.  That’s something people!  
I keep expecting them to sell out at any moment!

Click HERE if I’ve finally broken you down. 🙂
If you are a 1/2 size, size up!

*************************************************
You are probably going to both hate me and love me for this next one. I’m pretty sure I mentioned these in the very early stages of the blog, but it’s high time I talked about them again.

The Chick-fil-A Chocolate Chunk Cookie

I die.
I don’t even really want to describe this cookie because it feels like too much of a responsibility.
Like I won’t do it justice.
Buy one.
Eat one.
Think of me when you do.

And while we are on the Chil-fil-A train, you should also know about their brownie.
Again, there are no words.

I do however have some troubling news to report.
When searching for pictures of these treats, I went to the Chick-fil-A website first.
The brownies weren’t on there.
What?

HOLD. THE. PHONE.
Say it isn’t so.
If they have in fact been taken off the menu, then I hope you will join me in writing a strongly worded letter to your congressman. Or maybe just your local Chic-fil-A.
After all, it’s important to take a stand on important issues.
**************************************************

I don’t know what the weather was like yesterday where you live, but it rained in my neck of the woods! WooHoo! You know what that means!
That’s right!
HUNTER BOOTS BABY! (found HERE)

I am now kicking myself for waiting to get a pair of THESE for so long. I should have just caved two years ago when I first started pining for them.

In my opinion, they are 100% worth the investment.
Read the reviews to decide what size you need.
I’m a 6-6 1/2, and I ordered a 6.  There is plenty of room.
Most of the reviews to say to order up if you’re a half size.

*******************************************************
And don’t worry, I’m still completely in love with THIS blazer.  I have already worn it again.
That makes 3 x in about a week and a half.   It’s just that good.
You will get to see the look early next week.
Click HERE if you want to see my first 2 looks.
**********************************************************

 One last thing before the big giveaway.

Great savings on women’s clothing at Nordstrom right now!
Sign me up.

Great deals to be had, like THIS shirt (classic with great reviews) and

 THIS shirt in a great coral color!

And I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t interested in THIS basic black trench.

Click HERE to shop the whole sale.

There is SO MUCH GREATNESS to choose from.

********************************************************

Now, for the GIVEAWAY!

I have a seriously special treat for you today. Courtney DeFeo of the lil lite o’ mine blog had a brilliant idea that turned into a fantastic product, and I know you guys are going to LOVE IT.
Check out THESE ABC scripture cards.


ABC Scripture Cards are comprised of 26 tastefully designed 5×7 cards that feature easy-to-remember Bible verses from the NIV translation. Each set comes with natural storage box that includes a 5” gold or wooden easel to display all 26 or a magnet for display on a refrigerator. The size of the card also makes for easy framing in a case if a more permanent display solution is desired. The product is designed for the mom’s style and the child’s heart. Keeping it visible and merging into your daily routine is the key! Visit the resource and blog sections for more ideas on incorporating scripture memory into your home. 

And let me tell you something sooooo cool that is on the horizon for these cards! Read HERE about how they are probably going to be featured on The View as one of Elizabeth Hassleback’s favorite products! Amazing!

    Liked! And about the wedges…I am an elementary music teacher. I am on my feet all day. I wore the wedges twice this week with no problems and my students kept commenting on how much they loved my shoes! You know they gotta be cute if the little kiddos notice 🙂

    Okay, I hate to break it to you but the Chick-Fil-A Brownies are coming off the menu. We have a friend who works there and she recently told us they were making some changes to the menu. Brownies were on their way out. Better write you congressman:)

    I just liked on FB!!! Thanks! So, I've been holding out on the wedges because I was waiting for a sale. I know they're worth it, they just seem to have awesome sales so often, I didn't think it'd take too long. What do you think? Am I being stubborn? 🙂

    And to add to the chick-fil-a goodness……you MUST have a peppermint handspun milkshake. It's seasonal…..which is prob a good thing or my pants wouldn't fit. It's to DIE FOR!!!

    This is flippin' hilarious, that you mentioned the chick-fil-a brownie- can I just say, I sent my husband out Tuesday night to get me one- and he came home and told me its off the menu. I almost died, literally- my heart stopped beating for like 5 seconds- luckily my husband revived me by showing me the chocolate chunk cookie. On a happier note- got the black wedges- and yes they are oh so comfy 🙂

    And on the shoes- I bought the black ones and loved them! I was flying to Austin for a conference this week and wanted a good neutral shoe I could wear with everything and be comfortable in all day, so I went to Nordstrom and got them in putty. I got excited because they also showed they had 1 pair left in my size in Auqa! But alas they could not locate them. boo! But the putty were perfect and went with everything. At the conference I met a guy that works for Nordstrom.com and I preceded to rave about their site and told him all about the obsession with the wedge!

    And about those wedges…..mine finally came in yesterday. I got super pumped to see the Nordstrom box waiting on me after a long day at work. I had high expectations, based on all your talkin' them up, and lo and behold – I AGREE WITH YOU! They are fantastic! And comfy BEYOND words! I bought the black pair, but I'm thinking I need more….more……MORE!!!! THANKS for filling us in on these gems!!!!

    Liked them! Love these cards! My mom had a version of these when I was a kid and I still remember some of the verses.

    Now I really want to go to Norstroms and try on those shoes. I'm not a huge fan of wedges but maybe ill like these.

    I liked them but I wish Facebook had a LOVE button. I recently started downloading subway art to change out in a frame on my mantel and love the fact that these cards are a similar style and can be changed out. Found your website several months ago and LOVE it! You've inspired me to change the way I look at my wardrobe, trying new things. I'm now the proud owner of a chambray top, leopard scarf and am on the lookout for colored jeans. I've also pinned several outfits on Pinterest and discovered that brown and gray can go together!
