#SHOESHINE April Showers

When it Rains, it Pours: Life, Liberty (print) and the Pursuit of Happiness
Nothing says Spring has sprung more resoundingly than a good floral print. And I can't think of a more cheerfully classic and lovely floral print than one by Liberty London. I've been lucky to collect my share of Liberty scarves, a vintage skirt or two and top, and when Target did their Liberty collection, I confess I bought more than my share. So when I saw these great pink and floral rain boots in a thrift store for $5, I had to throw down. They are children's boots, but my feet are small, and they fit like a charm! So glad I "shopped outside the box" and explored the kid's shoe section. So even on a rainy and grey day, I feel cheered in my #SECONDHANDFIRST Liberty boots, and find the strength to take the world by storm.

Those boots are so cute! I didn't know Target did a Liberty range - and I missed it. I love their prints.

Love those boots! Every time I go to ACL music festival it rains and I curse myself for not owning a pair of these!

I love the wellies! Last year I picked up a chocolate brown pair with little pink horses all over them. They were perfect for the Kentucky Derby where it rained all day. Practical can always be stylish!

My wellies are all second hand, too. No cute kids ones though, I have massive hooves! x

The footprints made by these boots probably fill up with flowers with every step you take. I love how they scream SPRING!

Oh to have feet that fit kids shoes! I barely fit into adult's!
Your boots are magic, but I hope you don't have too much rain...just enough to water those gorgeous flowers.

So stupid of me. Lack of time has led me astray from your blog. Therefore I missed this Shoe Shine again. I am sad.
