They would be perfect with blue and white stipes too.indigo16https://www.blogger.com/profile/16982477144454205765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-33592542250951197392010-05-24T12:16:50.346-07:002010-05-24T12:16:50.346-07:00I have those sandals in black and red and I LOVE t...I have those sandals in black and red and I LOVE them.La Belette Rougehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05686717070120116918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-71343408206422013392010-05-23T14:50:52.188-07:002010-05-23T14:50:52.188-07:00Tiffany: Oh,no!

I hope you can find their like again and that you're wise enough next time to grab them, no hesitation.<br />thanks, Mardel.<br />and Jillian, have you looked for them in other stores? They really are comfy and in that metallic taupe, they'd be fabulously flexible.materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-83551017278994224152010-05-23T12:59:42.334-07:002010-05-23T12:59:42.334-07:00Nancy: Can I return the enabling favour?

My sad story is about a pair of black cigarette pants (not satin exactly, but a heavy fabric with a slight sheen) that I didn't buy about six months ago (they fitted perfectly; they were affordable!) and now desperately need for a party next weekend ...Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11536212906241844509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-58914488358974396582010-05-22T17:44:53.906-07:002010-05-22T17:44:53.906-07:00I have some Bjorn shoes and they do offer lots of ...I have some Bjorn shoes and they do offer lots of comfort...mine are not at all as cute as your orange flowered ones...and BTW they look nice on the terra cotta tiles!<br />This weekend my feet have been gardening and cleaning the boat so far...they are having a pedicure this coming week.<br />As far as the shoes that got away...I left them in the store because I thought the price was too high...over $300.hostess of the humble bungalowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06453827257671312902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-57719275203713099262010-05-22T17:16:52.635-07:002010-05-22T17:16:52.635-07:00Darling sandals, and they're Born?

I would've been tempted by a second pair too.<br /><br />When it comes to serious walking though, I'm finding I need sturdier styles and something with a snug fit, lest my feet get really tired. But those sandals look so great I'd probably wear them anyway.Susan Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16005855250089328310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-19666617056088432432010-05-22T15:01:17.190-07:002010-05-22T15:01:17.190-07:00These are so delicious!

For the same reason (tickly feet) I have only had one non-DIY pedicure in my life and that was almost 20 years ago (at a spa in Budapest!). So I envy you your soft feet and colourful toes!<br /><br />Monday is also a holiday here (Pentecost/Whitsun) and I am off tomorrow for the planned trip to Scotland to see my friends. Unfortunately, the forecast is calling for heavy rain for most of the week .... :0( However, the volcano ash forecast looks good - please cross your fingers and oh-so-lovely toes that I can get home again the following week!
