Silver and Gold

I decorated our 2nd tree tonight when I got home.

This is the silver and gold tree that goes in the living room.  I think I like the red and green tree I did last night a little better.  And this one is actually prettier in person than it is in the picture.  At any rate it's starting to get a little more festive around here even though we're both having trouble getting into the holiday spirit this year.  This tree also gave me a theme for tonight's post:

Silver and gold shoes, of course!   You know I can't resist the sparkle.

I'd like these better with a little higher heel.  I like the flower, though.  This is another pair of shoes that needs a place in my imaginary 50s musical closet.

 

These actually need a slightly lower heel.  (I know you're shocked I would say such a thing.)

Another pair of shoes the hubby will never wear...

More sparkle.  I like the shape of this, it's really interesting.

I actually have this pair of shoes, or one really really similar.

Festive!

I would laugh a lot of the hubby actually wore this pair of shoes.  Then I would put on my gold, sparkly shoes and we would go do something fancy.  Or maybe we would stay home and watch Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer so we could sing the silver and gold song while wearing our silver and gold shoes in front of our silver and gold Christmas tree.  Hey, if you're going to have a theme you may as well embrace it.

Shiny Red Nose

Poor Bean was sick today, so she stayed here while her dad was at work.  She got some good sleep, and we also watched 2 more Christmas movies.  Yes, we're obsessed.  We can't help it.  Christmas won't come if we don't watch our quota of Christmas movies!  Anyway, I couldn't find any good shoes to go with today's movies, so I'm going back to Sunday's marathon and going with a Rudolph theme:

Very festive!  It might be the shoe, or just my imagination, but does Rudolph look chubby?

Rudolph slippers for wearing during Christmas movie marathons!

Cute.  People who paint all of these adorable shoes and then tie them with fun ribbons are awesome.

I love this kind of baby shoes.  They always have a pair that goes with my theme.  And they stay on slippery little baby ankles.

 

Um.  What the heck?  These are ugly on so many levels.  And why is Rudolph red with a green nose?  Just wrong.

 

Hey, look!  It's the Rudolph from the movie!  Maybe THESE are the slippers I need for movie marathons.  Wait, would I need a different pair for each movie?

 

And there are even Clarice slippers.  So I could wear a pair, one Rudolph and one Clarice.  Then whoever was watching with me could have a matching pair!

 

But then I would need a third foot for the Bumble slippers.  So many slipper dilemmas!

Speaking of Christmas movies, I'm off to watch the 3rd in the trilogy of Santa Clause movies.  I told you, there's a quota!
