black like my soul.

Wearing all black, like the true goth kid that I am.

Just kidding, I was never really goth (although I did have jet black hair for a short time in my early 20s. that was not a good look), and even though I'm wearing all black here, it somehow seems girly and fun. I think it helps that the blouse is lacy and textured, while my shoes and bag are the epitome of girly. I know I've mentioned it before, but these Sam Edelman flats are so incredibly comfortable - I'm definitely going to order them in a second color - I'm thinking nude? 

On a different note, I'm on night float this week which has been a great experience because there are less people around, so I got to do more! A few hours ago, I got to deliver two babies completely by myself (with a resident right behind me, obviously). Perks of being a fourth year, for sure :)

Old Navy currently has a 40% off everything sale, which is pretty great considering many of their items are already on sale! Below are some of my fall favorites, from perfectly ripped denim to cozy scarves.

the most comfortable flats...ever?

Okay, let's talk about my new favorite pair of shoes, Sam Edelman's scalloped flats. I've told you guys before how much I like the look of Chloe's flats, but they are a bit out of price range, so when I saw the same style for almost a fifth of the price, I was so excited! I went with the suede blush pair, which at first sounds really impractical, but I've worn these shoes at least five days of the last two weeks, and they go with SO much! Plus no lie, they are the most comfortable flats I have ever worn. The heel is cushioned, the leather is soft, and I easily wear these for 8+ hours in the clinic. I'm so impressed that I'm definitely going to try out other Sam Edelman shoes in the future - either their classic ballet flat or if I'm feeling particularly sassy, their pointy toe flats. Although, I really could see myself just getting these scalloped flats in the nude leather too - I just love them!

p.s. I know $100 is a lot to spend on shoes, so if you want to get the look for less, Target has a very similar style for $35. No promise that they're as comfortable as my Sam Edelman pair, but definitely worth checking out!

^ I was in a small park near my house, which was completely empty when I got there at 7:30 to take these pictures. I set up my tripod, was about to take the first picture, when this guy pulled up right next to my car, and just watched what I was doing. I hate taking pictures in front of people, but I really loved this outfit (and my hair was cooperating!), so I just continued awkwardly smiling at my tripod. Half the pictures turned out like this though, with me side eyeing him the whole time!
