My pet shoes..

I remember my childhood footwear choices in great detail: whether it was pink in colour or decorated in glitter, some of them had a story to go with them, and some of them were even picked by my mum. nice. Either way, I think shoe shopping and wearing clothes at that age was always so much fun - there were no rules. If I wanted to wear my hair in three pig tails, I could. If I wanted to wear one pink sock and one green, I could. It's so hard to push the boundaries when you reach the age of 25+, it's 'official' adult age and even more so when you work in a strict office. In this instance I pick my attire, how do I say, somewhat more carefully, a 28 year old female cant get away with 'Hello Kitty'-esque wear, so simple, classic it is - why do you think I read all these adult fashion mags!

Well, one boring evening, a certain pair of shoes caught my eye whilst I was online - these weren't any pair of shoes, oh no. These were the type of shoes that you have to throw caution to the wind, transport yourself back to a simpler clothing time, smile and then just click 'buy' and so I did. What were these shoes I hear you ask?

Say hello, to the new addition to the Scribbles household: my Pussy-cat ballet pumps. I know, I know, I'm not 11 I'm fully aware of this, I am 28 and proud - I shall be a 28year old who wears animal-themed shoes. I just could resist, as soon as I laid eyes on it's (his) eye's I just new I had to adopt them (him) I  don't know whether the fact it was well, a cat in the form of a shoe, or its gleaming green eyes, but I decided I didn't want to be a boring 28yr old, I wanted to be a colourful, fun, throwing caution to the wind kinda girl - this is what these shoes say to me (that and 'stroke me please') but the question is, can I make them work for me? 

These shoes are so fun, I love to sit and stare at them, perhaps even stroke them occasionally (so what) but even though I'm happy with the above pictures and yes, I'd really like to think the shoes 'work' I have yet to still wear these out. That sensible 'I'm too old' side of me says no.  Perhaps these will be the shoes that never get worn out, but I will wear them in the house, stare at them, talk to them but draw the line at feeding them.

These lovelies are from the wonders of Love from Hetty & Dave and at a bargain price of only £25.00 

Go give some cats a home....
