Good Morning

I was going to do a different post tonight, but in light of Debbie Reynolds dying today (my heart breaks for that family), I'm going to give you this instead (everyone, but especially Ms. Reynolds, is wearing great shoes):

If that doesn't make you smile, not much will at this point.  I love this movie, and I love Debbie Reynolds in it.  What an amazingly talented gene pool that family had.

And because this is a shoe blog, here are a couple of pairs of blue dance shoes for you:

Maybe in my next life I'll be badass like General Organa while also having the dancing and singing ability of Debbie Reynolds...

My Awesome Sister

As the title of the entry tells you, my sister is awesome.  She is awesome for many, many reasons, but today she is awesome for this:

 

These are her square dancing shoes; she and my brother-in-law have been taking lessons.  I find this very cool.  I've never really thought about square dancing, but the hubby keeps trying to get me to take something like salsa or tango lessons with him and I keep shying away because I am such a klutz and in no way graceful.  My sister is way braver than I am!  Go sister!  I haven't gotten to see them dance, yet, but can't wait until I do.  You know what's coming next, right?  Of course I had to go look up other options for shoes in this category...

 

 

I like the red a lot, but realize they wouldn't go with as much.  As I was searching I kept finding lots of other kinds of dance shoes, not so many square dance shoes.  Which then made me wonder, what makes a shoe specifically a square dance shoe?  I did a bit of looking, but didn't come up with much.  Apparently this isn't a question a lot of people are asking on the internet.  Wikipedia couldn't even tell me, so what does that say?  Anyone out there know the answer?  Sister?
