Every Saturday, participants post photos based on a theme. The theme for this Saturday is SHOES.

I am not fond of buying shoes. I do not get shoes just because the design is good, or just because I have extra money to spend for myself (which is rare, by the way, lol ). When I do buy a pair, I make sure that I get something that is comfortable and durable like this one below:

This is the sole of my favorite pair: my light brown Hush Puppies, one of the brands I get when buying shoes. Have been to many places and have walked so many steps.

This is a student’s pair of shoes. What kind of music do you think he likes? If you said “hip hop” then you are right.

\

Shoes off, everyone, before you go inside the tent.

I would rather go shoe less or barefoot like the Incredible Hulk up there than wear something like that below:

No way I am going to wear that and trip and hurt myself. Good thing it is just a wee bit of decorative thing and not meant for real feet ;)

Have a great weekend y’all and don’t go running to the nearest mall to get yourself a new pair :D

i’m intrigued with last shoe. ano kaya feeling?

uy, magtwitter ka na!

24 May, 2008 @ 5:08 pm

Wow,…. I like the second shoes,… very colorful,….. but don’t think the last shoe would ever be worn by me,… I’d break my neck too! Great post. Have a wonderful memorial weekend.

24 May, 2008 @ 5:25 pm

Hush puppies shoes are comfortable. I like them too but it’s a bit too expensive for me.

Carin said:

That last pair I would never ever buy to walk on, maybe as a decoration perhaps :) Haha.

Shoeless is best but with temperatures here that’s not comfortable most times. But I am glad it’s Spring because this time of year there are loads of lovely shoes to buy. In Winter I just wear boots and by the end of Winter I am always really fathup with them!

Hushpuppies are great but I prefer the Wolky’s!

Thanks for your kind comment on my travel photo’s.

I can’t wear any type of shoes. I have only one pair of walking shoes. :(

Hush Puppies are really comfortable :)

24 May, 2008 @ 6:49 pm

My favorite shoes is “no shoes”, like the Hulk! Hahaha!

24 May, 2008 @ 7:03 pm

My sentiments exactly! Comfort over style is my philosophy. Of course, I think the years I worked in nursing has a lot to do with that. We are barefooted most often here on Pollywog Creek. Thanks for stopping by the creek, Julie! Hope you are having a fabulous weekend. (((Hugs)))

Hi Julie, I commented last night but have added something to my comments for Memorial Day:

Dear Lord, lest I continue in my complacent ways, help me to remember that someone died for me today. And if there be war, help me to remember to ask and to answer “am I worth dying for?”~

Great sequence of shoes for the theme. To answer your question on my blog, I have my shoes crammed in all the closets in my house which is why I needed to organize them to see what I had and what to give away.

The rubber shoes are so colorful! But I’d like to try the last shoes. Haha!

We are a no-shoes family here in the house. And my feet are in need of a serious spa treatment :)

25 May, 2008 @ 12:27 pm
julie said:

Patricia, we also go barefoot here in our home but we put on shoes when the rains are here and when the months are a bit cold. My feet are in need of a serious spa treatment :D

Barefoot is nice, except when its a little dark and you can’t see that a toy is on the floor,ouch! lol!

25 May, 2008 @ 12:30 pm
julie said:

Hip hop shoes, Anni. Our former first lady even had shoes with lights used for “disco-dancing” :D

julie said:

Thanks, Sarge,this Memorial Day Weekend is a special holiday to you and I am wishing that your country will be able to surpass whatever trials it has. I hope too that teaching application to the USA will push through asap :D

25 May, 2008 @ 12:34 pm
julie said:

Wow, Carver, you will be making other people happy when you give away a few pairs :)

Have a great weekend.

25 May, 2008 @ 12:37 pm
julie said:

Yes, hip hop shes, Lynn.

That last one, I see that in movies where bikini-clad girls have a contest during spring break :D Me nakita din ako with ladies during car shows, yung mga naka-sexy outfit manning the booths. You may want to change your mind about this :D

Lots of fun colours and styles!

Thanks for stopping by mine :)

25 May, 2008 @ 11:36 pm

I used to have a favorite pair of Hush Puppies but for some reason, they became too tight after I gave birth. They weren’t as comfortable as they used to be so I don’t wear them anymore.

That shoe with glass heels look good but if I wear those (though these are for decorative purposes only), I would have a hard time walking :D

Thanks for the visit, TNChick :)
