. in my shoes




Is it because of the blushing pink color?  Could be. Pink is always a draw here.  Is it because it is beautifully handmade?  Well, yes, that is a huge part of the allure. Is it because it is made from paper?!! No, I am not kidding. It is paper. Hand-dyed paper.  Is it because the designer, Noel Solomon, is delightful? Well, sure, that is always a plus.  Why do I love this shoe? Is it all of the above and more?  Yes, I am certain it is. 

You?

  1. It makes me want to plan a fairy party and have tiny paper shoes everywhere like the fairies have flown off to hide. Beautiful. Love ABC Carpet and Home...and love the poem...definitely feeling spread to thin these days. Have a great Monday.

  3. I absolutely appreciate the artistry...and it kind of looks like what the Three Musketeers would have worn if they were to dress in drag... (But I mean that it a good way!) :)
