You know you're maturing in age when you can recall things from your past in DECADES.
Decades, people.
Like, "Oh, I wore those shoes 24 years ago, Kennedy."
Almost 2.5 decades ago.
It's crazy to see the styles that YOU wore as a youth coming back around for another try. A few minor adjustments and tweaks, but ultimately the same fashion attempt.
Remember these sandals?
They're back in all their strappy glory.
I wore 'em. In fact, I wore 'em in junior high. Kennedy loves 'em. I can't say that I have the same adoration now like I did when I was her age. I don't know exactly why? Maybe it's because kids in 2009 don't accompany these multi-buckled beauties with electric blue mascara and the fresh smell of permed hair cut into a bob hairdo.
But, I also realize that I'm out of it when it comes to the reinvented 80's styles.
So, Kennedy and I compromised and wound up with these:
Much more palatable for my fashion taste in this current decade. A little more feminine. A little less strappy. Cute, and trendy, and cool all at the same time.
And a little less like she should be in a gladiator arena.

Love 'em!
Oh, do I remember those sandals! Are we really that old?! I love your pick!!
I remember those too, I had some it was probably about 5th or 6th grade. A couple of my nieces were wearing the gladiator ones the other day and my thought was, oh no not those again.
