Out of Town | Day Trips to Fort Worth, Texas

Fort Worth

What can you say about a town that uses cows and jails as decoration?

Walking Shoes | Worishorfer Slingback Sandals

Worishorfer Womens 562 Sandals

 

I mean exactly how ugly-yet-fabulously-comfortable looking are these Worishorfer slingback sandals?  Would you wear these?

In Germany, where Worishorfers are made, they are actually known to be German granny shoes, and they are firmly in man repeller territory.  Mike never notices what I’m wearing on my feet, and I think Mike would notice if I wore these, and not in a good way.

I’ll probably buy them anyway.   In my view they are the perfect shoes to wear if touring Europe in lieu of white sneakers, and I want to always be ready to jet off to Europe at a moment’s notice.

Day Trip | Stonington Borough

2012-06-Stonington-Borough-Connecticut-32

It’s finally warm enough to post this day trip which I took late last summer with Johnna. Stonignton is one of my favorite places in Connecticut, and it’s tied with Essex as the place I most highly recommend travelers from Long Island visit.

Walking Shoes | Wedge TOMS

Wedge Toms

 

TOMS are feel good shoes.  For every pair purchased, the company gives a new pair to a child in need. That right there makes me want to buy them, because how often can you feel good and altruistic about shoe shopping? 

On top of that, their flats are super comfortable.  I own these  wedge TOMS in grey, and I wore the hell out of them Summer 2012. They look good with dresses, skirts, and pants alike, and the heel height is low enough that they can be worn to do a bit of walking (the angle in the picture above makes them look much higher than they are).  The only issue I have is the insides are very light beige, and they really shoe wear and dirt. I need to take the time to research the best way to clean them.
