Theme Thursday - shoes

Theme Thursday this week is "shoe"
I am not a typical American woman with 50 or more pairs of shoes in my closet. I don't think I've ever had as many pairs as the average person. My feet have always been flat and they decided to be even crankier a few years ago with heel spurs, bunions and hammer toes.
Now, I pick out shoes very carefully. I always try them on before I buy them and I really dislike shopping.
So, I kind of took today's topic as a sign that I should go shoe-shopping. My town is having their annual Krazy Daze sales where most all the stores take their clearance items outside under tents and prices are supposed to be cheap.
I went to 3 stores and everything I bought was inside - so I don't guess I had to shop during Krazy Daze after all, but everything was on sale.
I got 2 pairs of shoes at Famous Footwear.
And I figured as long as I was out shopping, I might as well look at clothes too.
I don't really like shopping for clothes either.

I bought 6 tops - only 5 are in the picture because I am wearing one - and black capris and a brown culotte type skirt.
So, I should be fixed for shoes and clothes for quite some time.

  7. I visited your blog post by way of Kimba's Do It Yourself Day. Based upon your "Krazy Daze" sale finds, I am guessing we live in the same OK town.

  9. I practice using the trick of not looking at anything so very long, and end up wanting to buy it! -Jayne
