Shoe Wardrobe

Since the fire the one thing that I have had a deficiency in was shoes. I ended up with one pair of Hilfiger tennis shoes (plaid), a pair of Hilfiger flip-flops (also plaid) and a worn out pair of black flat shoes. Last week after my trip to the podiatrist I bought 2 pair of Top-Siders. But, those will not work with everything -- even though my wardrobe is very limited. My hubby was very kind and patient as he sat in Nordstrom's shoe department yesterday and while I tried on shoes that were kind to my feet. He made sure that I did not panic at the price, but used his favorite quote "it's all about me!" The first pair was a pair of black 'Ella' sandals by Munro. The second were 'Brook' a black loafer (with snakeskin) also by Munro. The last pair were a black pair of Mary Jane's named 'Saffron' by Sofft. I guess whatever clothing I buy now will have to go with 'basic black' or Topsider plaid!!

Best Summer Movie

After waiting for Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince to be released -- seeing it and a myriad of other 'Summer Blockbusters'-- my favorite hands down is still Star Trek. I was a fan of the original show. Followed a few of the spin offs haphazardly, but this cast and story is so fresh and exciting that I look forward to more. No need to rehash the past!!

New Shoes

Contrary to my daughter's opinion -- plaid Sperry Top Sider's are not ugly! This Bahama Plaid pair could have been purchased in pink. Now that would have been a little over the top. Needless to say, the feel wonderful on my feet today since the doctor's injection for a bone spur yesterday was not exactly a walk in the park.

Since the doctor said I had to wear "tie-ups" I also purchased a pair of Top Sider's in Graphite to go with my standard black pants for a less casual look. I don't know if it was exactly what he had in mind, but I refuse to wear orthopedic shoes!! That really would make Jenny shake her head (c:
