\nHey, readers! Happy Hump Day! Don’t worry, that means Wednesday. If you can make it over the hump of Wednesday, you can survive the rest of the week. Okay. Moving on…<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nToday, I’m gonna talk briefly about a staple category in my closet that helps me get through everyday life. Kind of…<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/a><\/div>\n


\n“Tis the gift to be simple. Tis the gift to be free.”<\/i><\/p>\n

It’s fairly helpful to have a group of what I call “simple shoes.” These are mine. The colors are black, light blue, dark blue, pink, slate, and white. (They look like that on their heels because I shove them in a thing meant for t-shirts. I usually don’t treat my shoes this way. *Shrugs*<\/i>)<\/p>\n

Usually, I’m not the one to talk about how much I paid for something, but this will be an exception. I bought these sneakers at Forever 21 for the incredible price of $5.50 per pair of shoes.<\/p>\n

I mention the price, because some people wonder why I have so “many” of the same shoe. Why? They were cheap, and I like that. =)<\/p>\n

But anyway, I consider these shoes essential. Do you ever have those times when you don’t feel like wearing heels, boots, or oxfords? Ever had a time when a simple, comfortable shoe would do for the day? I do sometimes, and that’s why these shoes are so helpful.<\/p>\n

I don’t wear these as often as I used to, but if I’m in a hurry, or just feel like being Plain Jane, I wear one of my “simple shoes.” (The pink ones have received the most compliments out of them all.)<\/p>\n

So, that’s a little bit of my personal style. I’m a shoe fanatic, so you can look forward to more “Nia’s Style” posts in the future.<\/p>\n

Do YOU have any SIMPLE SHOES?<\/b><\/p>\n

Have a great rest of the week! Yes, I’m wearing my black simple shoes today. =)<\/p>\n
