One of my close friends is Fuzzy. She has a motorcycle blog that transcends the genre as she presents humor, insight and various topics of general interest. I'd read her blog even if I didn't like motorcycles.
For my upcoming birthday (on Saturday), Fuzzy gave me a gift. Removing the wrapping paper, I squealed with delight. She bought me shoes! Not only shoes, but BEAUTIFUL shoes! My favorite color, a chic design, and -- best of all -- they fit! Size 12, which is hard to find.
The thought behind a gift like this -- pure acceptance and love -- mean more to me than anything. I'm a lucky gal with terrific friends.
Here are the shoes...
A very happy birthday to you! Friends who gift shoes are the best friends. Those are so perfectly you.
ReplyDeleteYes! They even match my blog!
DeleteOh wow, they sure are bright and sexy!!! Hope you have a great birthday Ally!
ReplyDeleteI wonder how she knew the right color for you ...
ReplyDeleteThey are gorgeous lucky you!! Hope you had a great birthday :D
For some strange reason I actually read a blog post before it was a week or more old .. so I thought your birthday was last Saturday ... let me fix that ..
DeleteHave a great day on your Birthday Ally !!!
Absolutely beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI always love peep toes, they're comfortable because they give ya a little extra room!
Happy early birthday!
:-) You wear them beautifully and they are beautiful shoes! I hope you have a great birthday!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a fabulous birthday present - they match your blog! They look amazing on you! I love the peep of your pink toenails.
ReplyDeleteI'm still watching for size 12s for you! I always look.
Those are gorgeous. And absolutely perfect for you. Way to go Fuzzy!
ReplyDeletePS: Is that the shoe house near York, PA? I grew up near Lancaster and we drove past a house that looked just like that on the way home a lot.
ReplyDeleteI think so. The person in the picture is Fuzzy and she visited it on one of her motorcycle adventures. I'm pretty sure you're right.
DeleteWhat an amazing friend and such a thoughtful gift. Those shoes are like candy. Super cute.
ReplyDeleteOh My God!! Yes, I had to spell it out rather than the obligatory OMG. Those shoes are so, so gorgeous. The color, the material (satin?), the design, the perfect heel, EVERYTHING!! Plus, you look divine in them. Friends like that are hard to come by. I'll be by to meet Fuzzy. Clearly they have great taste.

Those shoes are gorg!! Good to hear that they make adorable kicks in bigger sizes, too. (I'm a 9/10 and I struggle sometimes...I can't even imagine the challenge of finding a cute 12!)
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful shoes!! I love them and I am so happy they fit you so well! How so incredibly sweet of Fuzzy!
ReplyDeleteHappiest of happy birthdays to you dear Ally!
12 men's or women's? Just to keep in the back of my mind…
ReplyDeleteThose shoes are stunning, what an awesome prezzie!
12 women's which equals an 11 men's.

ReplyDeleteThose shoes are beautiful! Pink is one of my favorite colors. Happy birthday! :)
ReplyDeleteOh, what a lovely pink heel. The shade of pink, the fabric, the bow....a truly wonderful birthday gift from one amazing person to another.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Ally.

OMG! Those are the most amazing hot pink shoes I've seen a while and they're satin too!
ReplyDeleteI'll be on the look out for size 12 shoes with pizzaz for you.
What colors and styles do you like?
I like everything, Sheila. Heels, flats, odd shoes, normal shoes. I hunger for female-attire.
DeleteSorry a I am late on this, but Happy Birthday.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, those are super fabulous shoes! The color is so, so gorgeous. They look wonderful on you too!
Those shoes suit you beautifully - I can't wait to see you style them. Those shoes are the kinds of shoes that make you smile every time you catch a glimpse of your feet. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy belated birthday! Good to hear that you are safe post-Sandy, and that you got that luxurious hot shower.
What a gorgeous HAPPY pair of pumps!! Can't wait to see what you pair them with!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely! Marvellous friend, fantastic gift, such happiness. Looking forward to an outfit post!
