Ruby Red Slippers.

While waiting for paint to dry one day, I happened upon a lovely blog called:  http://dottieangel.blogspot.com/   In one picture, the author is wearing a pair of shoes that make me smile...

I don't know exactly why, but I have always l-o-v-e-d red shoes.  Legend has it that I acquired this trait from my Great-Grandma Dessie.  She was hip like that (for a granny!).


So, anyway, I did what any red-shoe-loving woman would do:  I googled "red clogs" to see if I could find the ruby red cuties.  I didn't find that particular pair of shoes, but I did find these and I'll take one of each, please. Well, two of each would probably work better, right?

While not technically red, the tan stitched Dansko clogs made the cut because they are just too cute to pass up!  And the Converse--I've been wanting these since I was 20.  Now that I'm closing in on 40, I'm thinking that perhaps that ship has sailed?

Oh! Red shoes, I love you so...
