Hi, I'm Rachel.

A few years ago I could barely boil water.

True story.

Determined to be a kick ass wife, I developed a love for football and learned to cook in my tiny Jersey City kitchen. I spend my days working in Manhattan, my nights and weekends chasing after a rambunctious toddler, and the hours in between cooking with my husband and feeding my TV habit...oh, and I blog about it all!

Favorite Summer Shoes

Today I'm rounding up some of my very favorite shoe finds! As you can see, I have a bit of a problem...

 

Saltwater sandals. These are one of my favorite summer finds. They are comfortable, cute and slightly earthy. I love that I can throw them on with a sundress, lightweight pants or denim shorts. My favorite part is the color! Adds such a fun pop to any ensemble and now I'm crushing on so many others.

TOMS Morocco crochet slip-ons. I've long been a fan of TOMS shoes. Not only is it a wonderful mission, but these shoes are adorable and comfortable. Comfort is key in my life, even prior to mom-dom. I've worn TOMS to travel Europe, for flying, for walking to work each day and my feet have never hurt, ever. I love this crocheted cobalt version because again, that pop of color and the crotchet adds some nice, lightweight, breathable summer texture.

Birkenstocks. I have these from last summer and I'm still obsessed with them. They are comfortable and chic and I can't believe how well the white upper held up after a summer of wear. I'm looking forward to another full season of these bad boys!

Tory Burch Mini-Miller Open Toe Wedges. These were a Mother's Day gift from Shaun and Penelope and I'm kind of obsessed with them. They are well-made, beautiful and comfortable - perfect for work or dinner out and I know they will be awesome in Las Vegas next week! These are definitely the splurge on the list, but I know that they will last for a long time to come.

Pointed Faux Leather Loafers. I stalked these shoes for about a month, checking every single day for my size to be back in stock. They are super affordable and surprisingly well-made and they are just a great statement shoe for the season. The backless nature keeps them feeling summery while the black and white contrast adds oh so much drama!

What are your favorite shoes for the season?

I'm so obsessed with your forever 21 shoes. I wish they came in my size but I've come to terms with my size 11 feet by now hahaa

Lately I'm obsessed with all platforms. For real, I feel stumpy when I'm wearing flats. Yes, I'm 5'9 but I still can't help it. I love these steve madden platform sandals that seriously NEVER hurt and I can walk, run, dance in all night long.

I'm loving summer shoes, too! I've never owned a pair of TOMS before and I love those ones!
