Ode to a Shoe Tree

Welcome to Fashionista Friday!

Imagine driving along a sparsely beautiful road, your only company the occasional car or truck traveling in the opposite direction. On one side of your drive is a river snaking through an otherwise dry (for Oregon) land while on the other side, hills and mountains jut up, jagged scars dividing them in places and making you wonder what stories are hidden amongst the cracks and crevices.

A Lady Gaga song’s blaring out of the speakers, and you’re belting it out along with her, sure that if your talent were ever discovered, you’d rival the pop star. (Okay, that part’s pure fantasy!) The sun’s shining through the sun roof, it’s touch warm against your bare arms, and you have a tough time remembering that summer’s really over.

That’s when you round a bend in the road and come upon this:

The first thing that caught my eye were the strange shaped fruit hanging on it, so of course I had to stop and check it out. When I realized the “fruit” were shoes, I was sure I was given a sign to add to my hit the sale rack at Nordstrom on my way home! Wouldn’t you think the same thing?

Have a great weekend!

Happy Shopping,
Melia

  1. I don’t need to do shoe shopping yet. But, on occasion around Guam I’d see a pair of shoes or 2 or 3 hanging from the some post or another along the beginning/end of a hiking trail i.e at Tarzan Falls.
