Bonjour all & Happy New Years Eve Eve! I watched Peggy Sue Got Married for the first time, and it's got me back into 50s/60s fashion. I've been struggling to get back into those eras and this movie pushed me to finally get around to it. As I've been getting back into the heart of retro fashion, I've pulled out my saddle shoes! I can't believe it, but I haven't worn saddles shoes in ages. It's funny, because I'm usually not into "trends" per say, but there is something so timeless and classy about saddles shoes. I feel like they've always been in trend, and it seems they're going to stay that way for a long time (but who knows? One day everybody might be killing each for crocs...highly unlikely, but a great visual). On top of everything, saddle shoes are comfortable! What?! Shoes that are cute and comfy? Yes, and they've been around since the early 1900s.
