I started breaking in these new Docs yesterday. I promised myself I'd wear them half a day and I managed to wear them from 10 to 3, so I call that a success. I'm paying for it today but that's the way it goes with Docs sometimes. You have to really want it. And I do with these, because, well, LOOK at them! Gorgeous!
I brought a back up pair of flat Docs to change into and they saved the rest of my day.
This will most likely be my last post before TxSCC. I am working a mid shift tomorrow and then grabbing Suze at the airport, and we head out with Elissa for Austin first thing Friday AM. Oh. And I still need to pack.
I can't wait to meet everyone. I am SO EXCITED and I can't wait to tell you all about it.

Fantastic outfit! You look skinny and gorgeous. I love the stripes underneath the floral dress!
Your changing into black Docs amuses me because that is what we used to all change into at some point when I worked at the Gap and when I waited tables. Docs: Official Footwear of the Service Industry.
I would have such a hard time transitioning from my desk job to something that required me to stand all day long. But, it sounds like you've got a sensible plan for breaking in footwear!
Have a ton of fun at the conference!
LOVE the outfit and of course the shoes....they really do rock:)
You are all going to have a fab time at the conference..have a drink for me girlies!

Oh those Docs are FIERCE!
All my old and almost-forgotten love for Docs came back in a rush when I saw those amazing boots on you. I WANT THEM! And you look great in them: good luck with the physical transition! It sounds worth it, yes?
I can't fathom transitioning to spending that much time on my feet, that sounds really rough, but it sounds like things are going really well at BE (which is so awesome). It's so exciting that you were able to pursue this direction! I can't wait to meet everyone this weekend, and I desperately need to start thinking about packing. Yikes!
Those Docs are awesome! They're like a skunk! I love the bit of stripe sticking out from the dress too - nice touch!
You look lovely as always, especially love the fit of the grey jacket xo
I'm so jealous - I want to go to the bloggers conference, it sounds like so much fun. I can't wait to hear about it!
Those Docs are perfect with your dress.

I love them! I bought a new pair of Docs as well, but haven't worn them in yet, because I'm too afraid of the blisters. I'm a wuss.
LOOOOOOOVE your new Docs! They make my black and white loving heart go pitter patter. :)
Hope you guys have a great time! Can't wait to hear about it and see all the pictures.
SEE YOU IN TWO DAYS! that is all....
:)
You look rad! I love the Docs, and I have many fond memories of desperately breaking in my own pairs in junior high and high school. I miss them! :)
love your black & white docs. hope you'll having lots of fun at the conference.
oh, i really enjoy to hear some stories from your new work.

Holy crap, I cannot believe we're going to be in Austin in TWO DAYS. I think I'm having a teeny tiny little heart attack right now. Great. My packing is finished but I seriously hate everything in my suitcase and will probably start over tomorrow. Because I'm crazy like that.
I love those Docs. Love.

So jealous of all you fun people getting to get together and have an awesome time! Have fun!!

You have singlehandedly revived my early 90s love of flowered dresses paired with Doc Martens. Brava!
Look, you're famous!

Everyone says Docs are so painful to break in. That's scared me away from them for life!

I just found your blog and spent a day reading it, aha! I love your style, and you've inspired me to try to wear my beloved docs in more adventurous ways...after the agony of breaking them in I really should crack them out more often
I love the stripes peeking out. So cute!
So glad I found your blog, newest follower!
I hate that I was overly shy (so not like me!) at the conference..I LOVED hearing your questions; you are too cute, Erin!
Boots are looking good. I just got a new pair of Mary Jane Docs. Happy to report break-in period was quick.

oh doc's how I miss you! I haven't worn a pair since junior and high school. They were my favorite shoes back then.
Love the b/w tone of these. Plus that dress is so damn cute..... (just like you:)
