Winter Reminiscing

Winter in mid March... does this confuse anyone else?  Maybe it's just me but this snow storm that came through unexpectedly earlier this week really got me thinking: where am I??



Outside with inches of snow already on the ground and snowflakes falling on my sleeves.

 

I walked outside and the snow flakes were flying in all directions and so white!  Diagonal snow left and right, all hitting my face at rapid speed.  It was the kind of snow that when looked at closely, you could see the details.  I became oddly happy with the color white.  Is that why they use white padded walls for rooms of seclusion?  hmmm...  

 

With the colors I was wearing that day, I reminisced of a retro winter and the 80's.  I also remembered a couple of things... 

 

 

These are my dad's shoes that I usually forget he even has until I see him wear it.  Does it ever surprise you when you see something stylish from your parents or family members?  Sometimes I go places and there are people's shoes laying at the foyer or door.  Immediately, my mind goes to thinking who's wearing those?  Where did they get them?  Are they comfortable?  For some reason it called to me to take a picture of my dad's shoes because of his stylish gold toe and heel black trouser socks hanging over one of them.  I didn't move the shoes or anything and they already looked like they were set there on purpose for some editorial or magazine.

 

Then comes the other stylish footwear...

 

 

 

In love with my little niece's warm booties!  Every time I see them I just think: such hairy feet.  Haha no, I actually think they're so adorable and that I wish I could fit them.  I think I actually put it on my toe once... but only to explain that they had to be worn on the feet.  Or was it actually to measure the largeness of my feet???
