Francesca's Boutique

The other night, Dad came over and watched Tucker while Andy and I had a much needed date night!!! Tucker had a blast with Dad, and Andy and I enjoyed a delicious dinner at Maggianos! It's not quite the same without ordering family, style, though, so if you'd like to go out with us sometime, let me know! ;)

Afterward, we did a little wandering at the outdoor mall, where I mosied into Franseca's Boutique. This little shop has been there for quite a while, but every time I go in, I'm with someone who has to leave quickly. This time was no different :) I wasn't going to kidnap Andy and keep him in a girly shop on our date night, so after he graciously let me browse for a bit, I agreed to leave.

Then, I saw these:

Ah, these beautiful orange beauties were shamelessly being deprived under the table, but they still caught my eye!!! Oh, the color is so lovely, the leather was beautiful, and best of all, there was a bit of padding in the bottom, so you won't just be slapping against concrete like many summer shoes do. I bent down and gleamed as I saw that they had a size 8, then realized that they were probably a bit out of my price range right now for shoes...or anything besides new clothes for Tucker for that matter! :)

These shoes wandered back in my thoughts again today as I painted. Then, when I opened my email, I had one from the shop! I had forgotten that I had signed up, and was pleasantly surprised to find that they had an online store!!! I suggest that you RUSH to their site right now and check out their beautiful goodies!!! Such unique items, and great gift ideas!!! (let me know if you need my address in case you want to gift me these shoes ;)

Anyways, enjoy Francesca's!!! If you go, let me know what your favorite item is! :D
