Chaussures

We have been having a wonderful time here in beautiful Paris. John, Elena and I are in a cozy, well-appointed apartment in the 6th. The weather has been beautiful and sunny - perfect for walking through the city. John has been enjoying all the food and wine while Elena and I plan our shopping trips. The first thing I saw in the Bon Marche was an amazing pair of Vanessa Bruno boots. I decided to give myself a day to think about them so as to avoid any impulse purchases. I didn't have to think long. Yesterday both Elena and I got them (it took visits to three different shops, but we found them!). The minute I got back to the apartment I put them on and practically pranced with joy. While John thinks we are ridiculous to 'torture' ourselves in such a way, he still offered to take a pretty picture for this blog.


Very different from my photos of elephants and African adventures, but just as beautiful to me!!!

Today we are headed to Taillevent for a delicious and indulgent lunch. We are all dressed up and looking quite respectable - I'm leaving the new boots at home, though, so I can walk off my lunch this afternoon.
