I fell in love with these golden beauties (Steve Madden’s Hanaa sandals) earlier this summer and had to get them! They’re actually very comfortable, are easy on blister-prone feet (like mine), and super cute with a sundress or jeans — they’ve been my best friends all summer long.
During a long overdue cleanup, though, a startling realization struck me as I was gathering and organizing all the shoes that had been strewn all over the place:
I had unwittingly accumulated a collection of gold shoes over the years.
…which is not necessarily a bad thing, as I’ve found that you can make gold shoes go with almost anything. They can help to dress up any outfit with that magical Midas touch. I think every girl should own at least one pair of gold shoes in their lifetime. (Or eight, if you want to be ambitious like me.)
Rather proud of myself, I promptly lined them up (as shown above) and showed the impressive array of these gold babies to Dan. Big mistake. He was utterly horrified and says he’s going to impose an official moratorium on the purchase of gold shoes.
But everyone knows that once you’ve started a collection, you can’t just stop. It’s either you go big or go home….
