Every time Magic Shoes on Bleecker threatens to close, I go and buy another dumb

pair. I like these because they look like a doodle of ankle boots.

Not so hot on these anymore (from the thrift store in Marfa) BUT the only thing

to wear with oversized, natural-waist corduroys from 80’s Brooks Brother

(+ braided leather belt)

Oh I don’t even know. These seemed important.

Another inexplicable pair from Magic Shoes (last summer, $10). Something fishy

is going on with the inside?? Good with short skirts.

These shoes make me want to KICK someone when I wear them.

Oh shush. In these, my feet resemble licorice jellybeans. Also, a new feat

in foot-binding: women’s size 4!

For if I ever become a part-time librarian.

For if I ever become a young women in an oversized black roll-neck and leggings

in the early 90’s.
