Hey Auntie Em.......Like My New Shoes??

"There were actually several pairs of ruby slippers made.
Each shoe was covered with red satin and lined with
cream-colored kid leather, to which was applied 2,300
sequins. Each leather bow comprised 46 rhinestones,
42 bugle beads, and 3 costume jewels."

I have a new pair of red shoes that really make me feel........sexy! I've heard over and over again, that every woman should own a simple black dress- I guess I wish I did. But I'd like to add that every woman should also own a pair of red shoes that make them feel fabulous!!!
Its not a new revelation, that I love shoes. My closet has a more than a fair variety of footwear. Shoes and books are a weakness of mine. Oh...and bread. Bread lust get me every time too. But I digress.


Red, hot, sexy shoes!!
They go with jeans, with a gown-if I owned one, with tights or stockings or just skin. They're party shoes or church go'in shoes. How does one pair of shoes do all this?? One pair out of so many on display at a store that I normally cant even afford to shop in. They were sitting there, high on a pedestal mixed in with many other 'flavors' of the same variety. But these shoes are the PERFECT red!!! And to make them even more appealing....they were on sale! A great sale, which made them impossible to resist!! And now Im feeling pretty when I slip into these gorgeous pumps. I feel no regrets for splurging. (though I may wrap them back up and put them under the tree, and call it good....no.....well done!!!!)
I cant wait for the next occasion, contrived or otherwise, in which I get to pull down an ordinary shoebox from off my closet shelf, knowing that inside, it holds the most delicious pair of shoes I own!! (for now)


What I Know:
Rare treats are delectable-even the non-edible kind!
Im NOT in Kansas when I wear these beauties!!
