Because not only did I have a lot of fun in Toronto with Laura (more of our adventures on her blog), but we now have matching shoes.
Predictably we didn’t manage to leave the Fluevog store after just trying them on, although that in itself was fun, what with trying on multiple sizes and prancing around and taking photos of our feet in the mirror.
We didn’t end up quite this matchy, matchy. Laura was planning on getting them in green but they were sold out and I argued that everyone needs at least one pair of red shoes. It’s a good rule.
Not only am I in love with these shoes, and the ridiculousness of buying matching ones, but they are so comfortable. I’m not usually a fan of heels but I wore these all day on Thursday (the day after we bought them), while traveling (=lugging lots of luggage around) and all weekend in London. Still comfy!
Now I’m back home, caught up on my email and catching up on laundry. Thank you for all of the safe travel wishes everyone, the traveling was tiring but totally easy and uneventful. I had a great weekend in London too, so I’m so glad I did that even if it did make the journey home more exhausting it was totally worth it.
*You know I don’t really mean that, right? I wish we were closer, although I dread to think of the madness that would ensue.

Awwww. I wish you were closer too. Everyone needs a good shopping partnet (enabler). x
Errrr….partner. That’s what I meant.
I LOVE the shoes – shame they’re not available in the UK, I’m looking for some cute grey ones at the moment!
Once upon a time the exchange rate from Canadian to US dollars was in my favor. Is it a good thing it’s not anymore? Because I NEED those red ones and I shouldn’t spend the money…
Next holiday you should come to New York and let us show you a good time!
The shoes are dead cute!! Welcome back, traveling is always fun but it is always good to be back home.
I love those shoes. Stylish and comfy.
LOVE the shoes! Especially the red ones…and Fluevog is just down the street.
Those are so super cute. I wish I could justify a pair!
Great shoe’s, glad you’re back safe! What’s on your needles?
i love fluevog shoes! both those pairs are fab-u-lous!
These shoes are so beautiful! I want more cute mary jane shoes like this!
I totally love fluevog shoes!!!!

Those shoes are quite awesome. I’ve heard of Fluevog, but havent seen them in stores. I know a friend of mine buys them because they make them for ladies with large feet!
I’ve been on a shoe kick lately. I still own more yarn than shoes though :)
Cute shoes!
Love those shoes!!
Um you are SO right! Everyone needs a pair of red shoes and they are so cute. Going to the Fluevog site right now!
Eeeek. The red ones….drool.
Oh, man! I love those shoes!
I love the shoes! so cute!
I love these shoes so much! Now I want a pair, and of course, you make them look good ^_^
I will have to have a pair of the red shoes, they are too cute.
I finished Otto and he is on his way to Salmon, Idaho today, a good place for a salmon loving polar bear. Pictures are on my blog if you want to take a look.
LOVE THEM! And everyone does need a pair of red shoes
Oh! Cutest shoes ever! I know where I’m stopping next time I drive into Seattle.
Love, love the shoes. How did the two of you meet and become friends? I think it’s great to have a friend in another country, whom you can visit!
I was looking through a new knitting book yesterday, I think it was Knit So Fine, and the model for a skirt was wearing those exact shoes in green! I immediately thought of you ladies. Those shoes must deeply appeal to knitters of all stripes!
Aargh – I have no red shoes!!!! I must remedy this.
You should submit photos of yourself with your new shoes to Fluevog – they have a section on their website devoted to “Flue Shots”!

I used to be a dedicated Fluevog shopper when I was in living in Toronto – including a pair of red boots which fulfilled my red shoes quota :D
Lovely shoes. Are these Saartje’s Booties for adults?
I want those red shoes! They are just to die for :)
REALLY cute shoes…and they look roomy in the toes…maybe I *can* wear heels again… *hopes*
ditto all of the above!
:)
Great shoes! I love ‘vogs. The whole concept of round toes are brilliant! I mean…shoes that are shaped…like your feet! Making wearing heels actually comfortable!
: )
oh they are just beautiful! i don’t usually wear heals but these are so pretty, and they do look quite comfy, too… they are not available online, by any chance?
