my grandmother died a few weeks ago. she left me a TON, literally BOXES and BOXES, of old clothes. she knew i liked retro things so she saved all of her clothes for me for when i got to be her size.

so i'm rummaging thru these boxes of clothes, finding things like bracelets with 'I Love Lucy' beads on them and old hankerchiefs and scarves. at the bottom of the box were these red italian leather mary-janes. TOOO CUTE!!!! and they fit perfectly.

so here i am, wearing my grandma's 40-some year old read leather strappy flats, thinking of her. and you know what, all of her things smell just like the grandma i always loved. smells like jergens sulfur soap and musky perfume.

my mom saw me wearing them today and i could tell that it really touched her to see them.

its good to remember people in little ways.
