“Take me with you,” they whispered seductively from the store shelf.

A few years ago, a friend of mine sent me a postcard that said:  “Change your shoes, change your mood.”  I thought it was absolutely brilliant.  Whenever I put on these shoes, I feel young, flirty and fun.  I don’t wear them often, just enough to remind myself that there’s still a young, flirty and fun woman under all the mom stuff… Do you have a pair of shoes that are mood changers?

I like trendy things but as a mother of four teenagers who are always eating, I don’t have the money nor the inclination to spend hundreds of dollars on a pair of thong sandals. So I was happy when I saw these little bronze cuties as Dollar General the other day. They cost $4!!!! They may not last me for years like some of my other shoes, heck, they may not even last me the summer but they’re cute and comfortable and I’m going to enjoy wearing them with my peasant skirts for as long as I can. What trend would you like to try this summer? To participate in…

Frankenstein Shoes.  Roach Killers.  Snow Crushers.  Butt Ugly Shoes.  These shoes have been called just about every name in the book, yet, they’ve remained in my closet for almost 13 years.  Whenever I feel insecure or unsure about something, these are my go~to shoes.  No, they’re not pretty.  They’re not even comfortable.  Yet, there’s something about them that makes me feel strong and confident when I slip them on my feet.  Maybe it’s the heaviness of the sole that remind me of my days in the Army.  Oh, you should have seen me then.  I was The Woman.  I oozed confidence.  Or maybe it’s the barely hanging on by a…

This picture was actually taken last year while the hubs and I were driving around the lake.  At this point, I actually begged him to stop the car so I could get a shot of my shoes with the lake as a background.  I love when the hubs indulges my crazy.

I can’t remember when or where I bought the shoes but I can remember when I bought the bag… I had just graduated from Drexel University and, with shiny degree in hand, was preparing to get my first full~time position as a librarian at a local college.  For the interview, I wanted a stylish briefcase and a cute suit.  Conventional wisdom said to go with one of the safe colors like brown, black or navy leather case but, um, that’s so not me.  I didn’t choose a “safe” black suit either.  Anyway, I happened to be watching TV when this beautiful briefcase came on the air, it was a Dooney…

BCBGirls from Burlington Coat Factory.  I bought these last summer and I think I’ve only worn them 3 or 4 times.  I want to get brave enough to wear them with a dress… To participate in Shoe Style Saturday, all you have to do is take a picture of your shoes post them to your blog hit the link leave a comment visit other participants So, come on and show me your femme fatale flats, those sexy stilettos and pin~up peep toes, yes,  even your racy runners.
