And SO worth it.<br /><br />You're gorgeous.<br /><br />heart: moi (and really I think we will all be interested in the fate of the shoes: whether they get new soles or whether their bootie souls are bound for shoe heaven).Kimberelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16590867490999668892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4235431019167859021.post-87388229249979313662010-10-06T09:10:18.046-07:002010-10-06T09:10:18.046-07:00Again with the sweaters.

I love your stories, your amazing photos and incredible style! So inspiring! <br /><br />I can completely relate to this story. I found a pair of stunning vintage Frye boots (same as the gray ones you own only in red) in a thrift store. I couldn't believe my luck! I snatched them up and brought them home for $7. Unreal right? Well I went to put them on and soon figured out why a woman would ever dump these gems off at the thrift store. It was not in fact due to mental illness as I first thought, they were so sticky and rotten on the inside I couldn't even get my foot in. It was a sad day. I even tried to take them to a boot repair place. Apparently they were too far gone to repair even. I'll have to give the Frye's a proper burial now.Carlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02064103862408389580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4235431019167859021.post-35730471204968224632010-10-04T01:25:30.091-07:002010-10-04T01:25:30.091-07:00Just found your blog and I really love how you hav...Just found your blog and I really love how you have so many different styles - which you all rock!
