What I really love about them… is the fact that they contain someone’s personal history…I find myself wondering about their lives. I can never look at a garment… without thinking about the woman who owned it. How old was she? Did she work? Was she married? Was she happy?… I look at these exquisite shoes, and I imagine the woman who owned them rising out of them or kissing someone…I look at a little hat like this, I lift up the veil, and I try to imagine the face beneath it… When you buy a piece of vintage clothing you’re not just buying the fabric and thread – you’re buying a piece of someone’s past.”

Love it!! I read a funny Confuscious-type saying the other day ” You never know until you walk a mile in their shoes…and then you’ll be a mile away and you’ll have shoes!” 😉
Passing on a cute vid that reminds me of the fuzzy cosy slippers. I’m up for a chat this weekend if there’s a good time for you. It’s GORGEOUS here with all the leaves changing, I think you would be in photographer-heaven. http://mobil.berliner-kurier.de/news/panorama/ist-der-suess—-zlatan-the-bunny–verzaubert-die-netz-gemeinde-24826196
Have a great day Moira! Hugs xoxo
