Booooo

As I was thrifting a while back, I ran into these amazing shoes with Route 66 etched onto the buckle. It was amazing! But of course, with my luck, they just had to be 2 sizes too small.



In the end I had to put them up on ebay to sell off, but I was so bummed that I couldn't fit into them. :(

After much thought, it really does suck to have size 9 feet. Thrifted shoes and vintage shoes run either very narrow or small, leaving me left in the dust when it comes to adorable shoes. The only time I can find vintage shoes in my size would be if I scoured ebay very....very thoroughly.

...Just my woe of the day, I suppose. :(

Yeah yeah! I added you on chictopia. Of course I had to be unoriginal and use the same username as everything else that relates to my fashion blogging. :p

I have the exact same problem-
I'm an English 7.5 (Eur 41) so it's rare to get vintage in this size
:-(
