52 Tuesdays: Favorite Thrifts #11



What: Not sure what to call these exactly? Here goes a really long adjective riddled name: Woven Leather T-Strap Sandals with Stacked Wooden Heel
Where: Monroe, WA Goodwill
Level of Love: 5 out of 10



Lovely leather vintage shoes with wooden heels are one of the number one things I look for at thrift stores but rarely find. At least in a size 8 1/2. These little beauties I almost passed up...not because I didn't love them but because really, do I need another pair of heels I never wear? The thing about these, though, is that it turns out I do wear them. The heel is not super high, and unlike other pretty vintage heels I own they actually fit (why oh why do I keep buying shoes a half size too small and thinking it will end well). I've worn them them three times now on outings that required a medium amount of walking without any blister incidents. That's a win.

At this point you may be wondering why they got a five, because it's clear from my glowing review that they rock. It's because I'm painfully afraid they're going to break. Like an irreparable tear in the woven leather or a broken strap. So, I'm trying not to get too attached to them just in case.
