Oxfords

For my birthday last year I got these babies...



I wear them all the time and love them! You can find them here. I love the contrast of wearing them with a skirt. A mix of masculine and feminine.

So before Landon and I moved out of our apartment we were in the Primary teaching CTR 5. The first Sunday I wore them, I was sitting next to a little girl in our class during singing time. I noticed she kept staring at my shoes. Finally she whispered, "why are you wearing boy shoes?" So cute and funny. Her dad probably had some oxfords in his closet at home. Oh the things kids say. What are your feelings about oxfords? Too masculine or love them? I am in love. I do think that you have to pick the right pair though. Some have a more feminine, slim look to them and others look like you really did steal your dad's big clod-hoppers. :)
