Flamingo-craze

Clearly, this is the week of my bait Dennise blue shoes. While it's purely coincidental, it's funny how that happens almost every week, having one of the items make an appearance almost each day.

 I was almost tempted to purchase some pink shoes for this shirt... and for my flamingo dress... but I'm really liking this shirt with these blue shoes. I'm not sure how often I'd wear pink shoes, aside from with my flamingo outfits, so really, finding options already in my closet seems like the logical way to go. Pairing both outfits with orchids in my hair seems to be as pink as I can go anyhow.

When I was in New Orleans last fall, I found a string of lights with plastic flamingos over the bulbs... I debated buying them just because they were so kitch, but opted for the gingerbread houses instead for Christmas. I'm not regretting not buying them. I'm still facing my original problem: where I'd actually hang them... but they would be SO perfect with my flamingo outfits! Is it wrong that I'm tempted to buy plastic lawn flamingos??
