Everything Old Is New Again

I have two favorite pairs of shoes right now:


As you can see, they are both peep toe pumps. I love that they are in style. These are probably also the highest heels I've ever owned. The red ones are about 4 1/2"!! I feel VERY grown up and fancy in these shoes. It's amazing what a pair of fancy shoes can do for a girl!

One thing that I love about peep toe pumps is how they remind me of the 40s. They remind me of shoes my grandma would have worn. Well, as I was unpacking some of my old pictures this weekend, I ran across this one of my grandma (seated) and her friend in 1941. Check out the shoes!

I think she would have liked my choices! If she didn't have super tiny feet...I would love to have the pair she's wearing! I think I would feel fancy in those too! Now, if I can only get my hair to do that!!

Oh, don't you love the 40's! That's one of my favorite times. People were still dressing classy to go grocery shopping, and I love that.

Cute shoes and LOVE the picture of your grandma!

I love old pictures...
