Johnston & Murphy Wedges: Review + International Giveaway

I'm SUPER excited to partner up with Johnston & Murphy again on SS.  They're generously agreed to give one VERY lucky winner a pair of Meagan slide wedges (retailed at $198) in the color of their choice: white, black, orange.  Rules are simple as always.  All you have to do is follow them on instagram via rafflecopter below.  There are also bonus entries available to up your chances of winning - ends May 4th.  Good luck to y'all!
Let's talk a little fashion!  I re-mixed my favorite +Talbots pencil skirt and styled it with a chic white blouse and thin gray cardigan.  I picked the cardi up from Madewell way back in the day for $20 or so.  It was on clearance + extra 30% off + student discount.  Yeah, total bargain.  

Always ask and see if they offer special discounts because many of them do - Banana Republic, J Crew, Gap, and ASOS to name a few.  Today's look is simple because I didn't feel like wearing jewelry.  I will rarely say that!  I wasn't feeling great so I decided to forego the accessories.  I did jack my mom's YSL bag though, haha.  Y'all know how much I love handbags!
A closer look at my Johnston & Murphy wedges.  They're SO chic.  Made of italian suede, they're 3.5" high with a 1/2" platform.  Super comfortable due to highly cushioned insoles!

Elegantees

I'm super excited to partner up with Elegantees today on SS because their designs are classic and they support a very noble cause.  Purchase a chic piece from their line to fight sex trafficking in Nepal.  The best way to reduce trafficking is to reduce vulnerability - poverty is the leading cause - and to combat the aforementioned issue, Elegantees employs rescued victims, paying them fairly and providing a meaningful way to live.  Make a difference, and help Elegantees achieve their goal of employing 500 women in Nepal.  You can become an ambassador HERE.  To read more about the fight against modern-day slavery, clicky HERE.

Elegantees sells tops, dresses, and skirts.  The top I'm wearing below is available HERE for $28.  Shipping's super fast so you'll get it within 5 days, and you can return or exchange he piece within 30 days.  The top is 95% cotton & 5% spandex.  It's fitted overall and flatters the midriff with the unique ruching.  Use code SENSIBLESTYLISTA at checkout to get free shipping - valid until April 21st.
Oh, and I'm wearing the animal print skinnies I featured HERE - it was a" find of the day".  Super cute, for sure! I still can't believe I score these for $60 - hashtag bargain shopping FTW.

Find of the Day: Patent Leather Pumps by JS ($29.99)

I got these JS by Jessica pumps online for $29.99 (originally $89.99) during Off 5th's Friends & Family sale - which is still going on BTW.  I absolutely LOVE these heels - they're a serious must-have.  Here's the 411 for y'all:  they're glossy patent leather round-toe shoes with 4" heels.  Available in black AND beige HERE.

These babies are timeless, and I can't recommend them enough.  As you guys know, beige & black heels are BASIC.  I don't mean "basic" like "omg, she's such a 'basic' betch", I mean "basic" as in every woman should own a pair of black & beige heels because they're fundamental wardrobe basics.  Not gonna lie though, I had a lot of fun time writing that all out, ha.  

ANYWHO, these heels = perfect for work and play.  Shoot me an email or comment below if you have any questions,  I'm always here for you guys!  Sending you lots of love.

PS.  I'm hosting a totally BAMF international giveaway with Albion Fit HERE.  You could win a $50 gift card for yourself + two frands.
