Some shoes are sexy

And some shoes just make you happy.

But rarely can one pair be all three.

I procured these beauties in Edinburgh at the Fringe Festival 2 years ago.

And I have loved them dearly ever since. I ogled them everyday for nearly a month walking to and fro past the shop window, before I convinced myself I should at least try them on. (secretly hoping I would hate them.) Bad idea! It was love- instantly.

To be honest, I could go years without ever ‘needing’ a new pair of shoes.

But they were even prettier on, then in the window.  Polka dots are synonymous with fun.

I blame my fabulous friend Nita for re-introducing me to the magic of polka dots. They are simple, clean yet so joyful and quietly elegant. Much like the daisy of the flower world.  Eternally a bright happy flower.

What I didn’t realize initially was their sexy aptitude.

This, like many great finds was a hidden bonus, discovered in the wearing.

So three cheers for pretty, sexy, happy!
