An Ode to the Flat

A few years ago my Mom and I took a 'girls' trip to Texas where I bought a pair of gold ballet flats for $7 in this old, tired vintage shop. They were the last pair, and even though they were a size too big (nothing a little padding couldn't fix) the price was so appealing that I couldn't pass them up. After 3 years of wear and tear they are still my favorite pair of shoes and they may just have to disintegrate into mid-air before I ever part with them!

So here's to flats...and hoping they never, ever go out of style...and that they'll always be a substitute for the dreadful heel...and...well, you get the point :)
