Imelda Marcos Shoe Contest

I was looking around today and saw a fun post at Everything LEB. She decided to take a risk and buy some fun gladiator sandals for summer. Well, it just so happens that I bought a pair of gladiator sandals yesterday. Big news? Probably not to you, but I have only bought one pair of sandals in the past 2 years. I just couldn't find anything that made me happy. My cute 16 year old neighbor had some fabulous sandals and I looked all over Atlanta for sandals as cute as Lillie's. Coming home empty handed, I made the call. "Lillie, do you mind if I buy some shoes just like yours? Pretty please. I think they will make me very happy." Bless her, she gave me the O.K. We don't usually end up at the same parties. And I don't usually call for approval before making purchases, but I didn't want to take the shine off her new shoes by having the older neighbor next door (me) getting the same shoes. I was afraid I would make them uncool.

So? What do you think?

Pretty cute huh?
Well the fun's not over yet because wouldn't you know it, I found another pair of sandals I loved the same day! The shoes gods were on a roll.

You've just got to get while the gettings good.

It may not happen again for two years.

All this shoe joy got me thinking...do you have a favorite pair of sandals?
Well, lets see them. E-mail me a picture if you already own them, or if it is a pair you want, e-mail me the web site or a link. I would love to do a post with all our favorite shoes. E-mail: siskotte@ec.rr.com
Even better, let's make this a contest. I will award a fabulous prize to one lucky shoe owner so get those pictures in and make sure to mention your blog if you have one. Contest ends Sunday June 21st.
