However I do know about loving something and then occasionally wondering what got into my head. Usually though these items find their place in my wardrobe if I am patient and just give them time to settle in. I'm obviously not one of those people who obsessively weeds out unworn garments every six months or so, sometimes I need that amount of time, or even, more to work things in.Mardelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04850551308931710502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-89788030229864109012012-11-07T19:44:16.279-08:002012-11-07T19:44:16.279-08:00I love the elfin quality of these shoes - they mak...I love the elfin quality of these shoes - they make you look very sprite-like - which I think is a great thing, by the way. Fleet-footed. Fantastic pairing. I think you'd look smashing in these with a cigarette-leg pant and a white button-down men's shirt. And of course a beret! LOL. Great look, mater.
