You gotta have sole!
"Picture a mic, the stage is empty, a beat like this might temp me...."
Wow....this time I digressed before I even began. But a sista wonders, is it just me or does there seem to be a line from at least one hip hop song to sum up or spice up every situation? Is it just me or do you too find yourself thinking "umph, umph, umph" ala Big Daddy Kane upon catching some poor soul in act of half - steppin'? Am I the only one who chooses to remind would be adversaries that, just in case they missed the memo, punks really do jump up to get beat down? Finally, is it me or do you too know "what time it is", who exactly "got the props" and where Q Tip left his wallet? If you are a friend of mine, I bet you do!
So onto the real reason for this post...The Shoes. "The Shoes? The shoes? It's gotta be the shoes!" (see, I told ya) I stumbled upon these little numbers during a recent cyber shopping marathon and fancy them rather cute! I can think of lots of things I could do in these puppies. Ooooh you dirty birdies!- I was not even thinking along those lines! But, since you mention it....
Anyway...I love the extra chunky sole which is just about every where you look these days and the designers had the sheer indignation to catupulut these tasty treats right to the top of the "fierce-o-meter" with the addition of the butter scotch piping! What?...Okay! (as per Little John).
As all my hommies know, back in the day, shopping was like a sport and I was a gold medal champ! I planned for it, trained damn near every day doing it, had certain outfits/shoes I wore while doing it - real talk! B.J. (before Jah), I would go to the mall almost every single day- shop for hours and sometimes leave with only one item - if anything at all. Shopping was my therapy and oh, how I loved a bargain....still do. I paid full price for absolutely NOTHING- still don't.

But alas, these days I don't have a fraction of the free time or free money that I used to. As we speak, I am stilletto deep in the process of remodelling my kitchen. Shopping for appliances, countertops and flooring is cool-well, actually it really isn't. Fun? Maybe, but far from cool. But for my money, there is nothing like hitting up a Loehmanns, Daffy's or a Nordstrom shoe dept. during the 1/2 yearly sale - straight sole food ya'll! I tell you what, once this kitchen is done, I think I may just treat myself to a day in "therapy" - I am long overdue.
Who knows, maybe I will finally grow weary of trying to save the world - go out and land my dream gig as personal shopper for some superstar or as a stylist on some fabulous televisions show or movie! Getting paid to shop with other people's money- oh, the fun I would have! A girls gotta have dreams- don't you think?
Love, Peace & lots of sole.......Ms.K
