These are my cute new high-waist shorts from H&M, except I wear them all slutty-like with the waistband folded over like the urban mall chicks that wear too much make-up and giant hoop earrings... but I wasn't trying to be a mall chick, I wanted to show the fact that I have THE ALPHABET in my pants. In my pants, and on my side... yes, I've got letters on my side. You're jealous, and a h8r most likely too. So take that.

While wearing some letters on my hip, I went to Goodwill and found these cool silver leather and canvas lace-up oxford/saddle shoe looking things for 6 dollars and had to buy them. I love a random vintage find. I love the secondhand shops around here because I live in a military town where people from all over the place are sitting on treasures of various worths that they can't comprehend; these people just give them away to charity (i.e. ME) because they have no idea what they're getting rid of or what they could make in return.
Or maybe I've underestimating my fellow men and humans really are good natured and generous at their core, and making a few bucks off of shoes or coats, for them, couldn't possibly compare with the exponential personal wealth of giving gifts of the heart to those in need.
im jealous of your letters and laced up shoes and proximity (im not entirely sure i know what that word means) to good charity shops. they all seem to have run dry in dublin. but the prices are still rising of course!

Ha ha ha ha. Too funny. ''so take that'' and the preceding passage helped to brighten up a particularly grim, grey, wet and windy suburban morning.
The pictures helped too of course. Love those shoes, what a find, what a bargain!
I can imagine a similar pair being worn (and worn out) by the female lead in a Fred Astaire musical.
Fabulous wordage going on too.
