TGI the last day of classes!
Today's outfit was driven (as is often the case with me) by my desire to wear a pair of shoes I just love.
Why do I love them so?
Well, I think it is partly because they are very high, but not too uncomfortable. But the main reasons I love them are that 1) they were a total bargain! 2) they really are very accurate in their classic vintage espadrille details, from the rope soles and platform wedge heels, to the crocheted toe-covers.
When I wear them, I feel like I should be riding an old-fashioned bicycle down a cobbled street in France or a winding laneway in Tuscany.
Wait-- shouldn't I be doing those things, regardless of what I'm wearing???!
Since the dress with which I normally wear them is far too mutton-dressed-as-lamb, particularly with my new 'do, I had to find something else to wear with them.
What else to choose on a Friday morning?
Black.
Of course.
I was thrilled to rediscover my silly white polka-dotted red hoop earrings and baubly red bracelet: they remind me of Carmen Miranda!
So do these shoes, now that I think of it.
Shoes: Mossimo for Target (I told you they were a bargain!)
