KEEPING MY MIND ON OTHER THINGS


Oh my oh my.
Life can sometimes be so very hard.
But it can feel a bit better to walk trough it in delicious stockings and beautiful shoes.

Stockings - Agent Provocateur; a gift from M
Shoes - My Grandmother's vintage 1940's

Ooh la la!

That is truly a fantastic photo my dear. Did you take it yourself?

I love that those shoes have such a history - I have a few items that are treasured hand me downs and they always make me feel special when I wear them.

Olivia Rouge said...

oh my! are those THE stockings? I am green with envy over here. And I wish I could wear more of those but since I'm at home most of the time or at work, it's really no use :(

Great photo! And great tat!

Oh, and the shoes... from the '40s! I'm sure I;ve commented on these before. They are so lovely – and they have history, too... perfect!
