What I wore today (day 3)

I rode my bike to the park today and once there, sat at a picnic table writing in my journal (pondering life as usual…always the sensitive soul which can be both a good and bad thing). Eventually I just reclined on the bench and looked up at the leaves.

If today had a song and a mood it would be Happiness by Goldfrapp.

Proof that shoe stretching works!

About this time last year I discovered my favorite ever flats, the “Heidi” by rsvp brand. I wore them so much that finally they fell apart. Now usually I don’t re-buy the same exact shoe a second time, but I loved these so much I just had to. Sadly the only place left to buy them only had a size 8.5 in a brown (a full size smaller than my last pair!). But the good news is they were on sale for $25 instead of $70 like before so I thought what the heck, I decided to give them a try.

Turns out these $3 shoe stretchers I bought at the thrift store actually work! That and I stuffed a bunch of socks in them. So if you ever have this problem with any of your shoes, give it a try because it might just work!
