Spring Flats & Sneakers

Normally I would be on the lookout for cute spring sandals (heeled peep toes, platform pumps, wedge espadrilles, etc.), but foot = still broken, so for now I need to play it safe with flats and sneakers.  The crazy thing is that I’ve never really been a “shoe girl”, but since I”ve only been able to wear one shoe I keep seeing shoes I want and can’t have … yet.  I guess we really do always want what we can’t have.  And after unpacking and organizing the closets I realized that my husband owns more pairs of shoes than I do and that is just wrong – lol.

Darn This Broken Foot

(A quick catch-up:  We moved to Portland, OR [woo hoo!] and one week later I broke my foot.)

I am super lucky that the bottom of the fracture is aligning nicely and I didn’t have to have a cast or surgery.

But for the next two – three months I am stuck sporting a so-far-away-from-stylish cast shoe.

My foot just HAS to heal FAST because I saw these shoes today and I want them oh so badly.

Awesome, right?  My left foot would be soooo jealous.
