"Meet me at the Mall"

[eumelia]

Today I accompanied a friend to one of the most expensive malls in the country - it's a five minute walk from the Uni campus - which is situated in one of the most up market neighbourhoods in Tel Aviv.

Completely unexpectedly, I bought shoes.
I do not simply walk into a shop and buy things on the spot.
It's simply something I do not do.

But for these, I was willing to be spontaneous.
They are, in the words of my father, Zooty!

Add to that, that I tried on pants I haven't fitted into for the past two years and they looked awesome!
I'm feeling pretty good.
In that utterly shallow, I really should be beyond this sort of sizeist thinking, kind of way.

Follow the link! Admire those puppies!

they do look awesome (though as my SO states, they also are conventionally-aesthetic, are you sure you want to subject yourself to such normative social conventions?)

תודה!!!!!

HAHA
;P

They may be "conventional" in aesthetic, but if I wear them, they'll be totally radical :D

I don't doubt it! They remind me of when oxfords of a certain kind were not merely de rigeur, they were actually regulation - for women in US factories in WWII. (I have an awesome little book on the origins of "Rosie the Riveter" and her real-life counterparts.)

I'd heard of that as well.
But Oxfords are just... so androgynous :D And stylish! They're just so... so me!
All my girl clothes can go with 'em... now I need a proper suit to go with 'em!

Those are some pimpin' shoes! Holy shit!

They are also comfy!
Comfortable and elegant shoes! How often does that happen?

These shoes rule.

I even have Argyle socks to go with them. In bright blue :)

Zooty! Your shoes are zooty! I have never heard the expression, but it perfectly describes those shoes.

I think it's some kind of 60's South African slang... or something, but yes, that is exactly what they are!
