my new loves.

you would not believe how *rare* orange shoes are, people. or maybe you would believe, if you're the kind of person i am, obsessed with orange everything. you'd know that they are pretty much the rarest of rare as far as colors for shoes are concerned.

anyway, i had been stalking and fantasizing about this pair for about 4 or 5 months now. maybe longer. i spotted them at paolo, in hayes valley (where i got another pair of yellow t-strap flats last summer). i wanted them so bad, i could hardly stand it. but they seemed out of reach for a while due to finances or whatever. stuff, ya know. i used to think of how they would go perfectly with this outfit or that outfit, and i didn't even own the damn things!

then we dropped by the store yesterday, and the fates smiled on me. they were on sale (just marked down that morning!!) , they were my size, and most importantly, they were still there.

now they are mine.

handmade in italy, snakeskin wedges. oh yes.
