Amy had suggested the challenge for yesterday's post on vintage shoes (that don't fit my feet). She also pointed out after I did my post that I forgot a pair.
This pair needs their 15 minutes of fame. Vintage swim shoes. They don't fit my feet nor would I try to wear them as they have become brittle with age. I got them at the Alameda Flea Market. They are in with my vintage swim caps for my someday beach house. They were intended to wear around the pool deck or to and from a swim.
The little bows on the toes! The two fish are old water bottles. One was gifted to me by a blog reader Bette after she saw the other one I had. (thank you)
Another pair of crazy shoes that make me smile..
Awesome pink color. Still loving the idea of your future beach house! A beach house that is all your very own, decorated anyway you like!!

Cute swim shoes! I bet they look great with your vintage swim caps and the fun fish water bottles. Your "Someday" beach house is going to look so awesome with all the things you've been packing away for it.

Is there nothing you don't collect?! I love it! I wouldn't really think to collect old shoes that don't fit...although I do have a box of my grandmother's old shoes at the back of my shoe closet that do fit but uncomfortably so. I keep thinking that something I'll try them on again and they'll magically be comfortable. lol Silly me. Oh well! Love the water bottles too!

They may be brittle, but they look like they are brand new! What adorable shoes!

Love your shoes! Not sure which display to put up on the mantle now that Ascension is here and the Easter eggs have gone down to their large nest in the basement for hatching next year...will need to take down the clear glass lamp with 34 eggs inside, too!
