New Era

This is a significant moment - and you are all here to witness it. Kate Morrison has ventured out of her comfort bubble, and into a whole new world. The world of heels. This, my friends, is my first pair of heels, and the first pair that I have bought! For so long I steered clear of heels because I didnt think I could wear them in a practical way, but when I saw these I thought "Why not!?" - and seriously, why not? So I bought them, no questions, and guess what? I love them. I like this new world of heels.

I have some confessions to make from my weekend thus far.

1. I have a bit of a hollywood crush on Mr Matthew Gray Gubler. You may know him as Spencer Reid from Criminal Minds, the friend in 500 days of Summer, or Simon of the Alvin and the Chipmunks. Eeeeeep.

2. I may or may not be in loooove with Lady Gaga's song "Bad Romance" and listen to it on repeat and even dance along with it. Come on, dont judge, its catchy.

3. I ate a whole tub of mango sorbet in one sitting, by myself, this afternoon. No shame, no shame.

What have you been up to this weekend? Hope you're all having fun! I must go now and get things sorted for this evening and clean my room which looks like world war 3. Take care, buttercups. x

  5. Your heels look amazing. Target? Woo hoo! I just ate half a packet of oreos. I'm so bad, once I crave and start, I don't stop till they're all gone. I'm trying not to open the seal on the other half now. :D I dresses up in a ginaty doggy suit today for our local Hardware store. Have you seen the Home Hardware ads with the dogs? I was the yellow one. Haha. Will put up a pic later xoxoxo Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

  6. Wow those are awesome heels on you. And I like your "confessions"! Ha ha ha Who hasn't had a crush and too much icy sweetness ;)

  7. Heels are a tricky thing to maneuver but when you get a good pair that feels like you're still walking in flats then when I know I've struck gold. These ones are adorable!

  8. OMG,YOU LOVE MGG TOO???? Sorry,i had to scream this out cause you made me so incredibly happy when you mentioned it.That man is love!!!

    I love heels,i only own like 3 pairs (not couting with my mum's pairs) but even loving them i can't wear them much due to a spine disease.However the ones you got are not too high and look so comfy!

    Bad Romance is addictive and awesome!

    I love your outfits,it's so beautiful!

  9. Welcome to the dark side! There is no turning back, I fear. I mean, so you see how gorgeous you look? And! If you want some articles about how wearing heels is super feminist and awesome and empowering, I can forward them to you!

    xo

    PS Cute hate!

  10. Your outfit, your newfound love of heels (I was scared at first too, and I have to admit that stilettos still sorta terrify me) and your #2 confession are all so brilliant that I want to dance along with you to Bad Romance in heels. :D

  13. This outfit is SERIOUSLY textbook definition of perfect! it's so pretty! I'm saving it in my inspiration folder because I totally could see myself wearing something like it!! By the way, whenever my boyfriend reads my blog comments, he always freaks out a little bit when you comment because your name is "Kate Maggie"- my name is Maggie and his last ex's name was Kate that I sort of stole him from. It's kind of funny :) hahaha! Your comments are always so sweet though, and I love them. Thank you so much!

  14. Those heels and hat are perfect! So adorable. I generally stick to flatter shoes, but those heels are just lovely.

    And I'm with you - Matthew Gray Gubler is quite swoon-worthy. :)

    ReplyDelete
  15. I absolutely LOVE this look on you! All the little details are perfect and those heels are amazing. I want to go emulate this look RIGHT NOW... shame I don't have any items remotely similar!

  16. PS. If you can find issue ten of NO magazine (i'm 99% sure it's sold in Austalia), buy it! It has an awesome interview with MGG and some beeaauutiful photos of him :) yum.

  19. great blog. That is some pair of first heels!

  20. I absolutely LOVE Matthew Gray Gubler. I saw him in LA at a show for the Xx and let me tell you, if you're only SLIGHTLY in love with him now, trust me you'd be fully in love if you saw him IRL. He's more gorgeous than the camera captures. And so ridiculously sweet!



    I don't know how you've lived this far in life without heels but o.O glad to see you've joined the dark side. And with such a beeaauuttiffulll specimen. <3

  21. Yay! Those are a great first pair! Really diggin' the hat too.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I'd have never guessed those were your first heels. They are pretty awesome and you pull them off perfectly! mango sorbet is the greatest!!

    ReplyDelete
  23. that shirt is perfect! i love the bottom of it. great detail!
    oh and lady gaga has catchy songs. i dance to her everyday, no need for being guilty for that ;)

    ReplyDelete
  24. Congratulations, Kate! They look absolutely stunning on you, dear! Oh, and I know what you mean about MGG! He's absolutely adorable and has such a creative mind.

  25. I seriously can't believe you have never owned a pair of heels. You are probably the only blogger out there that has never worn a pair and you know the most trippy part about it? I have never noticed! You duped me once but never again.

    :)

    Oh and Criminal Minds is one of my favorite shows... I totally understand the kind of sexy part. Like the nerdy guy in school that you have a weird little crush on but you're not sure if you want to admit it to yourself or anyone else... I don't know maybe that was just me.

  28. the shoes are gorgeous! good choice. and so is your hair! i wish i had lovely locks like you. glad to have stumbled across your blog :)

  29. Lurve! Those are such cute heels! And the height is reasonable, so at least you're not stumbling around in 5-inchers trying to figure out how to walk in heels. I tried heels for a while, but soon discovered they're not for me. Mostly 'cause I'm lazy and didn't want to figure out how to walk in them, though. So go for it! Master and conquer those heels!

    Also, I am obsessed with Lady Gaga, so I feel ya there.

    Also also, your hat is amaaazing.

    ReplyDelete
  30. I wish I could rock heels like you! You look awesome in them and the outfit is sweet too :)

    ReplyDelete
  31. I really love the hat:] so cute outfit!

    ReplyDelete
  32. I love the lace detail on that hat. Super cute!

    I actually used to have a crush on Alvin, and I would sometimes switch between liking him and Simon. For some reason, Theodore wasn't swoon-worthy enough for me. I also crushed on Prince Eric from The Little Mermaid. Clearly, I was a very confused child-- and didn't start having real deal crushes until I saw Devon Sawa in Casper.

  35. Hooray for heels! I can't stop buying them for myself. I think the blog world has definitely played a part in my addiction, hehe.

  46. Ohh, cute, I still haven't ventured out to buy a pair of heels yet.........

    ReplyDelete
  47. One word. GORGEOUS heels. No regrets!

    I agree with Bad Romance. Either you love it or hate it because it's going to be stuck inside your head...

    Aw, it's okay to indulge in such sinful obsessions once in a while... Hehe. (I can't resist chocolates)

    I LOVE the hat. It's so pretty.
