They are a bit circus-y, but I say, embrace that! You can pretend you're one of those ballerinas that balances on top of the Palomino horses, or an acrobat while you're wearing them! They're quirky and adventurous little shoes, and I say go for them.Mana Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04007963229816791984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5431426429749560566.post-31165516789125047902008-10-18T17:37:00.000-07:002008-10-18T17:37:00.000-07:00Yes, and I SO appreciate your positive comments!
