Ever found something amazing at an antique store and wondered about the story behind it? Well this happened to me the other day. I was shopping at my favorite place when I spotted these pretty vintage blue shoes. They were $22.00 and it just so happened the seller was selling everything in their booth 50% off. That was it for me. I just had to buy them!
When I was driving home looking at my fabulous find I started to wonder. Who wore them? Where did they come from? They are pretty worn down so I know somebody got a lot of use out of them. Did they even dance in them at one time? All of this amazed me and I knew they were just more then a simple pair of shoes. They had a story behind them and for me that was a fascinating thing. Now if only they were not so small. A size 5 or so. The ladies back in the day had such small feet.I remember my dear sweet Grandma and her beautiful shoes. I use to play dress up with them all of the time. I think they are great, and I will treasure these shoes always. I love these little blue gems♥.

Novak Djokovic: 2012 Australian Open Champion
My congratulations to the 2012 Australian Open champion Novak Djokovic. Today he beat Rafael Nadal in an epic 5 hr 53 minute major final. Novak played amazing. He looked tired and worn down, but fought till the bitter end for this incredible win. I am so proud of him, and he's becoming one of the best tennis players of today. Roger Federer will always be my #1 but Novak has definitely found a place in my heart.

Diva Wednesday: Reese Witherspoon
She's sassy and sweet. A down to earth southern girl. Reese Witherspoon is defiantly one of my favorite actor's today. I've never seen a bad movie with her. She's beautiful, and I love that she's always stayed grounded no matter how famous she's become. That is very rare in Hollywood these days. I think Sweet Home Alabama has got to be my favorite, but I still remember loving her in a movie long ago called Freeway. That movie cracked me up, and Reese Witherspoon always makes me happy. I couldn't think of anyone better for today's Diva Wednesday. I hope she continues to make movies for years to come. I think we can all agree on that.
