On my way out of the coffee shop after lunch I passed a woman wearing the most wonderful shoes. They were red loafery things with big strappy buckles across the vamp. I think they even had a closed heel (thank goodness - I can't deal with those open-heel loafer slide things any more) and a relatively short vamp, so they weren't penny loafers exactly, and the buckle was very strappy with just a bit of silver on it, not those Gucci buckles. So preppy and so pretty. I would totally fight Suzanne for them. She was wearing them with the one-wide-cuff jeans and a white t-shirt and the whole effect was Elizabeth Taylor somehow - 1950s all-American in the best possible way (yes, I know Elizabeth Taylor isn't American).
Here endeth my inner Carrie Bradshaw.
