Flowers and Shoes

All of the Altroemerias are starting to bloom in the garden.  They seem to continue to pop up in the oddest places, in some cases far away from the original planting, but they are so pretty and make such wonderful flowers for cutting that I really don't care where they appear. Here I have paired them with  white camellias which I also have in abundance.


But...


...the real reason for this post is to show you these absolutely darling new shoes that I found at Marshall's. They are modeled here by my daughter, I found it impossible to wear them and photograph them at the same time! Thank you Heather.



I think these will be perfect for summer: red and white stripes, who could resist.



The little bird wanted to came back to wish you Adieu!




Thank you for visiting, I hope that you have a lovely Spring day!

  1. This post just makes me sigh with pleasure - flowers and pretty shoes.
    *sigh*
    We can certainly survive without them, but would we wish to?

  6. Alstroemeria are so pretty and a great cut flower but I had to eradicate them from my garden as they were choking out everything in their path spreading underground and on top as well.
    Now who could resist those cute shoes. Perfect for summer.

  8. I didn't think alstroemeria really grew anywhere, I thought it just showed up at the florist. Imagine having it in your own yard! And camellia too! You are one lucky lady.

  10. Those really are cute shoes, and it was fun being a "shoe model". I should have somehow tiptoed out of the garden without you noticing that they were still on!

  15. I hope that you had a great Easter. I don't know what is prettier, the flowers or the cute little striped shoes! It must be wonderful to have a surplus of Altroemerias and white camellias so that you don't mind picking a few to make a bouquet.

  19. What a beautiful setting and "LOVE,LOVE,LOVE" the shoes! Just my style! I was thinking the other day about all the new SKY HIGH STYLES(I DO NOT WARE HEALS), and I survived the 70s platforms, ALTHOUGH I did take a tumble in 75 with my NEWBORN son in my arms. He was fine but being a MOM I wrapped myself around him and took all the "PAIN"! I swore that day NOTHING but flat shoes for me!
    I LOVE the ones you found! I'll have to go EXPLORE for them!
    Thank you for sharing,
    Big Hugs,
    Donna
