Ah, le romanace. I'm not getting X-rated here, trust me: but I am showing off my sexy 'new' shoes my British mannie bought for me at one of my fave vinatage-esque shops (the latter of which I'll tell you about tomorrow) when he was visiting me a few weeks ago.
A pilot, he's now in Spain slumbering away through his birthday, so let this pic of my legs and the shoes serve as a little B-day pressie over the seas, tee hee.
But they are pretty sexy, aren't they? And only $25 (I'm a cheap date, what can I say). You know I have a thing for 1970s chic. Well these babies are '70s all the way: suede cross-over strappies with an open toe. Never worn. So boo-tiful. Thanks honey! I will def wear them for you the next time I see you!!
This could explain why they never sold: there's a different make on each pump! One says, "Celina, Made in Canada" ; the other, "Mugford Shoes Ltd", an Ontario-based company that's been in existence since 1965 or so. Perhaps Celina was a make of Mugford? Or maybe the shoes were for different companies but made in the same factory? It's a mystery. What matters: I have my shoes, I have a good story about them, and yes, I have my mannie!
Tomorrow I'll show you the shop we found 'em in, which is, speaking of birthdays, celebrating its year B-day this month.
