While Cinco De Mayo
is nothing special to most “real” Mexicans, us hybrids living here in the US of
A have come to celebrate it with our favorite cervezas and tequilas over some
Lotería games with friends. Hey,
we still put those Frenchies in their place, so why not drink up, right? ;) As
a good Angelino, I made my way through the fine Cinco De Mayo celebrations, that
fell conveniently on a Saturday, in Downtown LA, including Plaza Olvera, along
with all the fine tequila bar establishments celebrating the occasion. In my fun bar hopping, I was taken back
by these adorable maryjane peeptoe wedges from across a crowded bar. As I approached the gorgeous lady, drawn intently by these
shoes, I failed to realize she was actually an acquaintance. Birds of a feather, go figure! ;) So of course, she let me get the
details of her festive wedges.
They are from a
label called Andrea shoes, and fittingly, a Mexican shoe company. *swoon* These are not
for those with a fear of height as
they are 5 ¼” high with a 1 ¾” platform.
It’s like they know I have a weakness for skyscraper heels, right? The most obvious thing about these
wedges is their endearing print.
It resembles the traditional “gavan,” or Mexican blanket, print. The ankle strap maryjane sweetness is
counterbalanced with a sexy peep toe to make it freshly modern, and utterly irresistible!
The fact that these
are only $62.10 let’s you celebrate your ethnic adoration of Mexican culture
all year round.
*hearts*
