. . . literally running in heels today, an area in which am really quite gifted, but if things continue moving at this pace, shall perhaps need to consider flats, and ever since happening upon these gold & white tasseled oxfords, have been looking at flat footwear in an entirely new light, and even more so in shades of blush & champagne . . .
