Daily Candy likes cute leather flats too!

Daily Candy writes:

Evidence points to the boot with the leggings in the Italian restaurant. But everyone suspects it was the stiletto with the mini in the cocktail lounge.

Of course they’re dead wrong.

The sweet little Pops slipper is the killer — look, that is.

We're ready for Spring!

This is our very first post! We are very excited to start blogging from our shop. We hope to keep you up to date on the happenings of the store and our lovely neighborhood of Ballard.

In Seattle, it seems like it has been the longest winter of all. Even when the sun decides to come out, it still doesn't seem quite warm enough. But we are very optimistic and we know we'll be getting those warm sunny days soon. So let's all pray for warmer weather so we can put our favorite spring shoes on and shed our winter toes from our beloved boots.
