Classy Shoes

For a long while I have wanted a pair of spectator shoes. Mum recently handed me a catalog of womens' shoes. "There's some really cute shoes in here!" I was pessimistic and dubious as I flipped through the catalog. And then! I happened on the page with these advertised. Spectator meets oxford shoe. Perfect. Stylish. Classy.  

"Saddle Lane - 25 October 2012"

Leaves dance down the dark street.
Is it beginning to rain?
Is that mist?
Is that the rustle of leaves?
Quiet.
Listen.
Listen - to still, ever so faint whisper of  leaves as they take center stage.
Quiet.
Ssh...
Did you hear the wind?
Did you hear the rustle-bustle-tussle of their crisp-layered-organza-paper-thin-sheath like dresses?
Oh no!
Is that a thunderstorm?
Is that rain?
Could it be the refreshing breeze of an autumn evening?

Hello, Beautiful Chair!

Roadside treasure hunting pays off when a chair with good lines just needs a bit of reinforcement and fresh coat of paint. The things people throw away.
