Peppermint Swirl Spectator Shoes!! Where have you been all my Life?!!

They haunted my dreams













Aren't they cute?













My Cute Porch :)













Well, Here they are!! I am beyond happy <3 These were the shoes that I have been whining and whining about for who knows how long. Too long I say! But Thanks to Tiffany and her help at stalking e bay and EA she found me these shoes. One night I was just sitting in bed reading my favorite blogs and heard my Iphone make that sound it makes when you receive an email. I was so enthralled in what I was reading that I just ignored it and decided to continue reading till 2:30 AM. After a while I opened the email and read... Peppermint Shoes  on E Bay" !!  I noticed the email had been sent at like 1:45 AM So, I was already in a panic thinking that they'd be gone! Tiffany was so sweet she even sent me the link. My heart was pounding !!  I couldn't get to E bay  fast enough. Luckily the seller had a BIN and I was all to happy to pay whatever it was. I sent Tiffany a Thank You email and hailed her "My little Hero"  I shared my news with another of my blogger friends and have been waiting with baited breath to spill the beans :) I cannot tell you how happy I am. These were almost impossible to find. I looked for these every night and every day on E bay on EA It was daunting. I know it's just shoes. But for us that live and breath shoes it's a big deal. I am totally a shoe hoarder!! I have to make room for shoes. Now, I don't have 20 pairs or anything like that. In fact I get rid of the ones I don't wear after a certain amount of time. But not my Anthropologie  shoes they are a piece of art.These particular shoes  are made by Poetic Licence I also  sent them a few emails whining about where I could score me some! ( I sound like a crack head ) They were always prompt and very courteous and told me to check with them every so often. So, Here they are BNWB. And I can't wait to wear them. The problem now? Is what to wear them with? Ironic right?  The colors are a gray on Blue with red laces. I did a Polyvore but with my Jeans and that's where I get stumped. I want it to be something very cute or something romantic. I have waited so long I don't want to just pull something together in a few minutes. So, maybe you all can give me some Ideas?  I also want to Thank the seller, She is a really nice lady and has an E bay store and carries some awesome rare hard to find stuff. I asked if I could plug her shop but never got a response, So to be respectful, I will just say Thank You!  And Also a big Thank You to the sweet Tiffany because it it wasn't for her diligent help I wouldn't own my dream shoes.Well ladies, Have a wonderful evening :)

  7. Yea, yea, yea!!!! So happy you found them, Gabby. I can't wait to see them in action on you. We're skipping town tonight to avoid the Fiesta craziness...Fredericksburg. Although I think it's going to be pretty crowded up there too. Strawberry picking, lavender fields, trade shows, and Alamo Springs Cafe. Yum! Have a fabulous weekend! Could you shoot me an email sometime with your email address so we can chat about an Anthro night? molly@anthromollogies.com
    Thanks, babe!

  8. Ah, Texas :) aren't we blessed?
    Love Fredricksburg! Love that German food. Love trade shows, although I go to Wimberly sometimes. Thank you for your comment. I've been like a mad woman trying to score them. But I got lucky because one of my readers found them for me. I'll shoot you an email and we can go from there? Have a great weekend. The Springs restaurant is yummers!
