These are the walkin' to work shoes (I swear, it was rainy in the morning - not bright, beautiful, gorgeous sunshine) |
And these are the work day shoes... |
When I was walking home from work today, I passed a woman walking by. I assume she was out exercising since she was wearing sweats and walking at a brisk pace. I was having a lovely walk myself, just enjoying the deep, deep pleasures that spring brings to my heart - a warm, but not too hot, temperature; the bright vivid green and blues; flowers blooming; birds singing. So as we pass by each other, she says to me, "Great boots! I haven't seen boots like those since I lived in New York!"
Dream. Come. True.
If the small town girl isn't going to live in the city, she can at least channel it! I am going to be filing that one away for those days in which my mirror/creative powers fail me. "Yes, I know, I may look odd/crappy/strange/not-what-i-was-going-for-hate-everything-i-own-in-my-closet, but at least my boots make me look like I belong in NYC!"
And I don't think she meant it as a backhand compliment either - double score!

Love it! You know your outfit is good when it gets a compliment like that. Love that top!
Eee!!! I love those red Hunter boots!
I love those boots, too! And the fact that they're red make them so much more covetable! (Is that a word? haha) I need some rainboots, seriously. I also love the leopard wedges. So cute, this entire outfit!
Kudos on channeling the city vibe hehe
You are so adorable! Love the boots... and the compliment. :)
