You didn't think i was going to skip over fashion as part of my happiness project did you? :) Lots of things make me happy. Yoga. Painting. Sophie. Music. Good coffee. But SHOES make me really happy. And i had a serious case of the mondays yesterday. On my way home from work yesterday in Spartanburg, i went by this adorable shoe store called The Lemon Peel. They were having a big sale (which is when it's GOOD to wear a size 10 shoe) and at first i looked right over these shoes. But I kept coming back to them and just had to try them on. They were incredibly comfortable and really perfect with a pair of good jeans.
So, i was on the way home and talking to a guy friend of mine who asked how my Monday was. I said "Well it's great now that i just went shoe shopping." He replied: " I don't get it. What is it with girls and shoes. Like, why shoes and not scarves or dresses, or whatever else you would go shopping for? I just don't understand it." Well, believe you me i set him straight on this matter. I said " Shoes have the power to make a girl feel GOOD. It changes the way you walk...changes your day." But then i continued with, "well, a good scarf or a good dress can do the same thing, so i'm not sure what it is about the shoes. " Maybe it will remain a mystery.
Then i got home and took my shoes out of the bag and noticed what it said on the box. New shoes make a bad hair day look good. Truth.
Maybe shoes don't mean much to you. But they'll continue to be on my list of happies.
