Where are You Going in those Keds?

I read a lot of articles about blogging and how to be awesome at it and get a zillion followers. Over and over I read that you’re supposed to put searchable key words in your post titles, and to not use obscure puns. There’s just one problem: SEO (search engine optimization) is boring, and puns are not.

I’m sorry if you don’t watch HBO’s Girls and this title is lost on you, but if you’ve seen the first season, I hope it made you smile a little. And I hope you realize there is nothing else I could possibly title a post featuring Keds except “Where are you going in those Keds?” Such a beautiful ballad.

Moving on.

These Kate Spade Keds are pretty much the most exciting thing that’s ever happened to me. I mean I did get married one time, and I got into law school. BUT that’s nothing compared to the time I procrastinated on buying adorable limited edition Kate Spade Keds from the Keds website, then the shoes sold out, then the shoes reappeared on the Nordstrom website, AND THEN  I GOT THEM. Huzzah!

The bad news for the rest of you is that these particular shoes seem to have nearly sold out again. But because I don’t want to be a jerk for taunting you with something you can’t have, I did find:

  • A pink pointy toe version in a couple sizes here
  • A white and blue polka dot round toe version in lots of sizes here
  • A blue gingham round toe version in lots of sizes here
  • An orange chevron round toe version in lots of sizes here

Has anyone else scored a pair from the Keds for Kate Spade collection? I have a feeling you’ll be seeing a lot more of these babies.

Bits & Pieces

For the most part, I take photos of my outfit every. single. day. The main exceptions are when I don’t get out of my PJs, or when I throw on a sweatshirt and jeans to run a quick errand. I know many bloggers decide whether an outfit is “blog-worthy” before they post, but considering the raison d’etre of Sarah’s Real Life, I think everything I wear that’s life-worthy should be blog-worthy.

The problem: Sometimes I take my photos myself, and when it’s cold out or it’s the end of a hard day, I tend to rush through it. Then I end up with not enough good photos to make a decent blog post that all you lovely people would enjoy reading.

Today I thought I’d round up a few of these outfits I never posted because even though the photos weren’t the best, the outfits were still cute and I still wore them in my real life!

So here’s what you’ve been missing!
