Cinderella Is Proof....


I saw a quote on Pinterest -
Cinderella 
is proof
that a new pair of shoes
can change your life.

Don't most women love shoes?
I have heard that it is because they always
fit even if we gain weight.

But I think it is because they are little
works of art.
(Sorry men, I can't say that about your shoes!)


I found this beautiful pair of shoes
in Las Vegas at Shooz 
while at Miss America and thought
they were just too fun and too pretty
and so I had to have them for Spring.

I don't know that they are really going
to change my life, but I have them sitting
out as a decoration on my dressing table until
Spring arrives - inspiring me.


I also received this little shoe for my
birthday.

Can you tell what it is?


It is a tape dispenser by Scotch.  My good friend
Ann gave it to me.


She admitted that she added the bling! 

Don't you just love it?

I am an admitted shoe-a-holic and
these both brought a smile to my face!

Chocolat - French for Chocolate. I adored chocolate from a young age when I had to sneak in the cupboard to find where my mother had hidden the Nestle's Chocolate Chips. Having read about the famous chocolat shoppes in Paris, when I finally got there I was determined to try a chocolate from every Paris shoppe. I invite you to share my adventures in creating, in travel, and in life.

  1. Hey! Those shoes will look GREAT if you wear it with that dress in your Profile photo on your side-bar!! That's JUST the kind of dress you need for that pair of shoes... a 'one color' dress, because those shoes need to stand on their own! As my mom would say: "Wear them in good health!"
    Best,
    Gloria

  5. Oh, my goodness. Those shoes are great! And you are so right about shoes always fit - even when you've gained weight. (I've said that many times.) Just this weekend my friend and I were comparing how many pairs of shoes we have and can't live without. I also love the tape dispenser - your friend knows you well.

  7. If anyone can pull off those shoes, Jackie, it would be you. I think you would be able to work them into a centerpiece for a tablescape, as well. They are one of a kind, that's for sure. Love the blinged tape dispenser, my friend Dawn would like that. She is a shoe girl too. xo (P.S. Enjoy those honeybells.)

  18. What fabulous shoes! I'd need legs a good 8 inches longer if I were to look good in them!

  19. What red blooded American Woman would not be a shoe-a-holic. You are the best. Those shoes are the Ritz. If I were just twenty years younger I would fight you for those. Alas, I will have to put my orthodics back into my shoes trudge off and pout.
    I could handle the tape dispenser.
    Hugs, Ginger

  22. Oh my goodness, look at those shoes! I am also a shoe addict, but sadly...my feet were the first thing to fall apart on me. I just can't wear heels anymore...just little ones for short periods of time. I guess I have no fat on the bottoms of my feet anymore...why didn't it fall off somewhere else?? So, my challenge is finding cushy shoes with low heels that don't look like someone's great-grandmother's sensible shoes. Not easy. I envy you...please take a picture when you wear these and I'll live vicariously!
