[ purple shoes ]

Last night was the Opening Night of Beta for the year. It was fun to get together with everyone and starting planning for a fun year!!

I've been doing some online shopping. Does this suprise anyone? It shouldn't!

Chris, the VP at CHS, has started a new CHS tradition:



Purple Shoe Tuesday



Do you think that anyone just has purple shoes at home, besides my sister?!
Well, I'm not one to not participate in school spirit days, so it's given me a great opportunity to do some online shopping.

Keep in mind I have a huge foot...abnormally large.

I need some purple shoes that I can wear with black pants since jeans on Tuesdays are not acceptable every week.

I thought about getting Crocs, but they don't meet criteria #2.

I bought these:



but I'm not into the black pants, tennis shoes look. To me, it's like a mullet. Business on top, party on the feet. :) I wore these on Friday to the football game with my cheer sweatshirt and I liked the look. Not sure if I can pull it off during the week though. I've never had Chuck Taylor's before - do they hurt like hell to break them in?!
I ordered these, in purple and in gold:

They were on sale and I found a coupon code, so they were about $15 each.

They're backordered until October.

Check these out! I saw them in the Nordstrom catalog today! I LOVE them!

They even come in one size bigger than I wear! I ordered them tonight (and a pair for my Mom - she loved them too!)

I hope they fit. I hope they look cute on my gIy-gundo feet.

I'm still shopping... :)

Love them all... really like the last, two! ;) How fun! I might have to do my own spirit day... just me at the studio coming up with different days... but I would have to post a sign so people weren't like WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

You better be careful or you are gonna have a stash like your sis and you will have to build on to your house:)(esecially since your shoes are big and take up lots of room--gasp)

Marcie,
My aunt Nancy is in town and we were shoe shopping yesterday. I found the cutest pair of purple shoes and she mentioned your post about purple shoes so I had to check it out. I love the last one's and agree with you about he first one's (mullet-esque). Super cute!
