Hey Dude Shoes, Boy are these fantastic!

Hello everyone!!!




I have some of the coolest shoes ever as of two weeks ago. Hey Dude Shoes Vinci Oxfords in Charcol. They are military canvas and suede, super light weight, super cute and, oh yea. Made for men. But, Leah has huge feet, I clock in at a women's 10 and a Men's 8.5, and that means she can wear men's shoes. Does that have any advantage in day to day life? Other than the fact that I can steal my guy friend's shoes and wear them leaving my own ratty converse for them, not much.


But to be able to wear Hey Dude Shoes is totally awesome :D I LOVE THEM! They are so friggin cool! I was sent these for review, but gosh a backup pair would be nice. 

I wore them for three days straight while walking around my college's campus and let me tell you that these are the only dress shoes I have ever worn that are as squishy and comfy as running shoes ( I AM SO SERIOUS!). I love the light weight feel and easiness of wear with these shoes. 

The Oxfords had a proper inner arch to them and I never felt like they were really on my feet. They weight in at a little more than 6 ounces they are feather light. Here is what the company says on its site;

The Vinci brogue oxford is a must have shoe for any laid back, style conscious guy. Constructed of lightweight military canvas with Italian cow-suede toe, heel and overlay, the Vinci weighs just 6 ounces. The Dupont sole has a rugged tread pattern giving the shoe an original take on the classic wing-tip. Suitable for work or the pub, Vinci is a great alternative to heavy dress shoes.



I have to say that they are the most amazing men's dress shoes I have ever been. Both men and women have run up to me wanting to know where they are from. Hear that Hey Dude Shoes? ALL my GIRL friends want them! I wish to be made aware the second the Women's line comes out, the smaller sizes of the Vinci would disappear in seconds!

I really cannot express how wonderful these are in words. The fit is great, despite being a man's shoe, the feeling when you step is unparalleled in Men or Women's dress shoes, the construction is superb and you can buy new insoles for only $7 so you can "recharge" the comfort of your shoes!

That is about it. I took at least another 20 photos of these shoes but decided that it would be just a little TOO MUCH to spam you guys with ALL of them. I will admit I am lusting after the new Vinci Neons hardcore. They are sooo pretty... and the new color of Vinci, Nut, is really gorgeous as well. 

Until Next Time,

Morgan Taylor Lacquer, They are so awesome!!

Hello everyone! Polish Post!!!

:D


I haven't done one of these in a bit but the Morgan Taylor Polishes were just so great! I was sent three out of the core line of so so so many! They have awesome application, both Wonder Woman and Dress Up were actually opaque in one coat but I did two out of habit. I'm getting a bit ahead of myself here. First, about the company (from the company); 


EXPERIENCE THE MORGAN TAYLOR BRAND

Morgan Taylor™, the NEW standard in Professional Nail Lacquer, the crème de la crème of nail color, developed by professionals for you.
Danny Haile and David Daniel's history began in the nail industry, rooted early on as nail technicians. Over the course of 30 years, Haile and Daniel have innovated the professional nail market. Now, they have once again transformed the nail industry with lacquer that is specially formulated for you…the nail professional. You can see this at work in Morgan Taylor's select ingredients and innovative bottle — each thoughtfully developed for optimum style and performance.
Morgan Taylor's unique spectrum was designed to remove all barriers to color expression. Our creative palette knows no bounds, ranging from the classical to avant-garde, and from subtle to unconditionally spectacular.
We invite you to experience the Morgan Taylor brand. Embrace the colors. Become a part of our world.

I love how they are all about us, the nail polish lovers (they say Professional, but we all know what they really mean ;)  The color range they offer is simply awe inspiring considering they are a pretty new brand compared to the older tried and trues. They seem to have at least 99 colors just in their core collection. WOW! I love that they have not just reds, pinks, nudes and silver/gold. But also glitters, blues, purples and greens. I LOVE IT! 

What is even more amazing is the speed at which they dry. I am a busy person, and I do not often get time to do a full manicure and let it dry as it pleases. But with Morgan Taylor Lacquer, the consistency is a bit thick, but it dries super fast! It is in between a brush on Gel Polish and a normal nail polish. It is super shiny even without top coat. I put on a coat of Out The Door in the photos because I teach swim lessons early in the morning, before the break of day, so I couldn't risk chipping because of the water. My cuticles are sad looking, yes. And the photos of New York State of Mind show some wear from the water. But other than that they held up pretty well considering I spend three plus hours a day in the water for the past two weeks. 

Without further ado, here are the photos! 


Wonder Woman First, A blue base red with a gorgeous glossy shine and shimmer. Spot on for the red I think of when I bring to mind the Iconic Super Heroine

New York State of Mind. Funny thing is, my aunt who is a definite New Yorker saw this polish with no knowledge of the name and said Oooohhh give me. What do ya know? :P 
It is a super pretty multi colored glitter set (blue, pink, red, silver micro glitters, gold) in a deep blurpley jelly base. Definitely textured without a good topcoat. I think I am wearing about three coats here plus two of topcoat. A "hungry glitter" if not treated as a textured polish.

Dress Up. Might actually be my favorite. Easiest application out of the three, super fast drying, super flattering color. The pretty lilac color is one of my favorites in nail polish, I already have three similar but this one takes the cake. It was completely opaque in one coat. A bit more intense at two. I should have done some cleanup but I was test driving a new gadget to make lazy polishers happy :)

I love them and would recommend Morgan Taylor Lacquer to anyone! They are also doing a Breast Cancer Awareness Collection that I think is absolutely fabulous!
