Monday

There's a rain/sleet/snow mixture falling today. All day.
I decided to ask Youngest to go with me to the mall. As you are aware, I never go to the mall, but Youngest is a great shopper.
He assisted in the purchase of these shoes

as Supergas are, generally speaking, The Shit.
I got these too...

as they were completely irresistible, make me tall, and are completely safe. I know they look a little Frankenstein-y here, but, believe me: while not graceful, they are lovely and fulfill the need for both oxford and height.
The shoe salesman (at Nordstrom, where people could not be nicer) and Youngest had a lovely time talking about shoes. (Youngest was wearing his Asian Givenchy Bondage Shoes).

Then we toodled around for a bit, trying things here and there and bemoaning the sudden and mysterious departure of the Anthropologie.

Youngest tried on this leather jacket at Zara,

as well as a breath-taking suit at Nordstrom.

He would very much like a Burberry tie.

His birthday is next.
He looks so fine in everything he tries on, that boy.

 After shopping? This place.

Very nearly too hip.

 Meanwhile, back at the ranch...

I don't remember hearing about Al. da.
And I love those shoes. My mum, who is not a tall woman, used to live in wedges. She was very sad when they went out of fashion in the '80s.

I used to live on Supergas (didn't know they were the Shit there though). I like the wedges, that plaited bottom is nice and I am sure you'll look awesome AND tall!
But. Nowhere near the awesomeness of the Asian Givenchy bondage shoes. Sorry. Youngest trumps Bb it appears ...
