The first thing I managed to get my hands on were a pair of sandals. I can tell you there's no cordovan trend right now because I looked hard and long for my cordovan sandals (and found them under my nose at a local shoe shop for - deep breath - $21!!).
Now I must have burgundy/oxblood/cordovan with all my clothes right now. I've never before liked this color, and consequently have only sandals and a ribbon right now in my wardrobe.
I have the mint fabric and the pattern ready to go to Make My First Dress For Myself. Then my nighttime burgundy and mint vision will be fulfilled and I will also have reached a goal this year, which was to sew a dress for myself. Just need the time!

Nice shoes! Great goal to sew a dress... I want to do that too but it's not only finding the time but also the motivation! xo
Love the shoes! What dress pattern will you use?
I confess that when I saw the title of your post I feared it would be a recipe.
I'm relieved.
Looking forward to seeing what you will make! The sandals are so classic and pretty - very hard to find these days!
I love the sandals and the color combination sounds scrumptious... I love mint green and brown together, which is very similar. I can't wait to see you in your new ensemble.
Funny girl! Putting off your sewing. You are just like the rest of us mom's. Everyone else first. I can't wait to see your dress.
I love the sandals, nice find. Good luck finding the time to make your dress - those kids have to sleep sometime don't they? Keep being good to yourself. :)
Fabulous colour concept, you'll rock it, especially in your own handmade dress!! Love Posie
that color combo sounds so vintage. i like.
the picture of you in that dress looks like you stepped straight off the set of Mad Men. and i mean that as a complement.
