Everyone wishes for a Fairy Godmother (FGM). Just so happens that I’m lucky enough to have one!
One of my bestie bloggers, Enchanted Seashells (who hilariously called me out in one of her posts yesterday – click here for a must read!) has a gorge Chanel purse. When she spoke about it on her blog, I could hardly wait for her to show the goods (and then turn green with envy) when she got her bag. So when she caught wind of what I received, I told her I’d share, too!
And courtesy of my FGM (who’s celebrating her birthday today!), here’s what recently appeared at my front door step…..Swoon. Sigh. Squeal!
Most normal women dream of a white dress and a wedding aisle in order to sprint down to a groom. Not me. I’ve often dreamed about obtaining a luxury shoe and slipping it on my foot – comparable to a Cinderella moment. Or maybe a Pretty Woman moment (without the prostitute part and all).
And out of the box, the most beautiful Chanel booties appeared.
My friend P suggested that I get a shadow box in order to display them because they really are that gorgeous AND foot ‘art’. Of course, I want to bedazzle a frame to put in my closet allowing them to ‘hang’ while they’re off-duty (which will be very minimal).
Who would have thought interlocking C’s could fill a gal with glee?!
So now my evenings consist of hurrying home from work, laying on the kitchen floor with my legs over my head taking pictures (exciting life, I know) of my oh-so-fabulous patent leather Chanel booties.
And then I prance around my mini-manse in my vintage (it was my mom’s in college) tuxedo T-shirt (so dressy) and booties, like any sane person would do. A fancy brand of boots can up the class of any outfit but it apparently doesn’t guarantee adding class to the gal.
Even Teddy is enamoured with my new kicks.
Chanel inspected, Teddy approved. Of course he approved – I’ve groomed him well.
CCheers to my FGM! (yes the double C was on purpose).

[…] of Chanel – and received a pair of booties from my fairy god mother earlier this year (read about it, click here). And Louis…oh Louis….I ran a marathon (yes a full fucking 26.2 miles) in a bet to […]
I am a cray cray Chanel lady too…but without any actual Chanel to her name, except beauty products and perfumes. I am so utterly jealous! Those booties are AMAZEBALLS! I am green with envy…but, like, totally happy for you too.
Girl – I was a CCC from afar, too. Having the Chanel Chance perfume and a few lipsticks, I was the same boat as you for a long time (well, my whole life!). I will cross my fingers that a Chanel piece comes your way one day!
jealous!!!!! they are FAB!!! xXx
I used to wear heels,Hon; I used to find them comfortable enough to run in, not not any more.The old feet/knees/ankles can’t deal with too many types of shoes and, [broken-hearted sob] , no more heels. I am living vicariously through you.
There are some fabulous flats out there, Tonette! I just found a pair of Tory Burch at a consignment store. Black flats with a silver buckle at the top – gorgeous!
Thanks – I could sit and stare at them all day (and night)!
oh the shoes are sssoooo FAB!!!!!!! I would totally lie in my kitchen every evening taking pix of these prettylicious two!
I do…and I just can’t help it! I still can’t believe I own them! 🙂
