Hey guys!!! I hope everyone had a great weekend and Happy Easter! We had a great weekend and Sunday filled with church, family and friends. Spring is in full swing and I have something super special for you guys today!
Have you heard of Tieks?
Tieks are designer ballet flats made of the finest Italian leathers and designed to fold and fit in a purse! Obviously we know these flats are cute. . I mean, come on. . have you seen all the colors that they come in?! A few things I can tell you now that I have a pair and have worn them around etc. is that I love them and they are comfortable! It did take me two pairs to get the perfect fit. . I usually wear anywhere from a size 6 to a size 7 and I wouldn’t say my feet are wide or anything . . but I needed a size 7 in these flats.
I initially got California Navy in a size 6 but then exchanged them for a size 7 in Coral.
I initially went safe with the navy but then decided, if I’m going to get some Tieks, I wanted a brighter, more springy color! I absolutely love that they can fold and fit into your purse and the leather quality and sole quality is impeccable. Also, their return/exchange policy was crazy easy. I simply went online, put in my new order, got my new coral Tieks, tried them on to make sure the fit was better and then simply returned the other pair using their return shipping label (free shipping in the United States). It couldn’t have been any easier.
And now I have Coral and love them!!! I’ve already gotten so many compliments from strangers when wearing them. And they are so versatile too! I’ve worn them with pants, jeans, shorts and dresses. These are seriously going to be my new spring and summer shoes!
Now, I want Fuchsia or Pop Pink for sure!
Before I get to the giveaway, because it’s all about spring today, I have to share a few of my favorite spring recipes with you! I hope you check them out!
This spring medley pasta is one of my faves! Filled with some of my favorite spring veggies, you can’t go wrong with this cheesy deliciousness!
These are my fave apps to make in the spring! My Asparagus and Prosciutto Crostini!! So easy and delicious!! You need to try this!
And last, but certainly not least, my Strawberry Cheesecake Brownie Brittle Ice Cream! I’m sure you’re seeing strawberries everywhere right about now .. and if not now, you will soon! The other day organic strawberries were on sale at Whole Foods for $3.99! Strawberries are in-season late April through August so go get you some!
