Budget Career Deal: Old Yeller

When I saw Psyche's yellow ballet flats posted yesterday at Economy of Style, I was reminded of how much I want a pair of yellow pumps for work. You know, just for that pow pop of yellow to liven up a conservative work wardrobe, without being sent home for being too sunshiney.

Good ol' Target comes to the rescue with a pair of Mossimo heels in a yellow that's just right even for that most conservative of working environs: the court room. As of 8:30 p.m. last night, these heels were still available in most sizes, but my personal experience is that everything I've shared on this blog has sold out by the time I actually wandered back to purchase it.


So now I'm trying to convince myself that shoes are not included in the self-imposed shopping ban. Which I just did. To self: "You GO, Girl!"

Y'all, they also come in purple.

Practical Paralegalism shares links 'cause she likes 'em, and has received no goods or compensation from Target in exchange for this post.

  1. Hi, Lynne! It's nice to meet you! I am a North Carolina girl too. I am in the Sandhills area. I was just looking back at the outfits you have posted and they are just beautiful! As far as these yellow pumps, very pretty. I have had really good luck with my Target purchases. Not everything there appeals to me (of course) but some of my favorite dresses have come from target.

    Have a great week!

    1. It's like we say in the legal field, "there is an exception for every rule." Whew!

  3. These Mossimo heels are lovely! They are definitely worthy of an exception :-)

    Items like this one fly off the shelves in my Target. You'd never even know they were there. Thanks for the mention!

    1. Psyche, half the time I find out about the most awesome stuff at Target exactly one day after it's flown off the shelves. And I get really aggravated when Target's most popular online items are displayed with "out of stock" written above them, like candy I can't reach :/ I'm sort of OCD so I *will* keep clicking on the coveted article of clothing like I might get a different message...lol.

  4. Shoes in interesting colours are a great way to perk up a more conservative outfit. Yellow or purple... Tough choice! xx

  5. Hurry Lynne go get the shoes! That's a great yellow. I also like your Fluevogs in the previous post. Isn't it crazy how we can spend a few dollars on an outfit, but the shoes cost 10x more? Happens to me all the time.
    If your nearby Targets are out of those pumps, I'll be happy to look in my Targets for you.

  6. You know me - I'm an enabler. GREAT shoes. Yellow is second only to red for a classic pop of color.
