just like mom used to wear

Enough already with the Grecian sandals. I've been looking for a pair like my mom wore in the 70's with her white painter's pants.

Here they are. But sadly, I just can't spend the money. $175 buys a lot of parasols, people.

  1. I know all about finding cute things to wear, but not being able to afford them due to the wedding budget!! I can't tell you how much I would LOVE a new shirt to wear to work. But, alas....

    What's really infuriating is when you see a bunch of stuff on SALE, but you don't have the money for it right then!! Grrr....

    check out this website, way way cheaper (all under 50$), and hand made in Greece.

    a friend in Athens mailed me some for my b-day, and thats how I discovered the poet sandal maker.

    although with clients like Jackie O, and Sophia Loren, I don't know how he still remains a secret.

    but they also ship to the states.

  5. you probably bought a pair already but...
    I just discovered your blog and I'm loving it. I bought these shoes because they reminded me of sandals I used to have. Super comfortable, plus you are supposed to go into salt water with them so they conform to your feet, which I love. And super cheap.

  7. Robyn, you're sweet. But I think they're just a little too chunky.

    And the Greek sandals Laura recommended are just a little too Greek.

    What can I say, I'm Goldilocks :P
