Ahhhh how clever they are at Magnolia Pearl ...

My Place and Yours = Your Favourite Pair of Shoes ...


A couple of weeks ago it would have been any of these ...
sorry ~ impossible to choose ...
I'm at that stage where I only own favourites!
After years on my feet I only wear good shoes ...
my Grandma said "your feet show on your face" ...
  hence with these darlings I'm always smiling ...
but after having the coldest feet ever ...
I splurged ...
my first pair of boots for over 20 years ...
 
like walking on a warm cloud ...
Sandlers at Myers sale reduced to $129 from $199 ...
I need an operation to get them removed!
