It is with much sadness that I say goodbye you, good ‘ol go-to nude patent loafers from the GAP. You were not on sale, there were many other pretty colors to choose from, but I picked you. Seasons have come & gone, yet you've stayed by my side. You were handy to have around when clouds sprinkled rain & did not protest like your suede counterparts. You played nice with both skirts and flared jeans. You did not let me slip or fall. And for this, I am thankful. We've had a great 6-year run, but your toe shape is the death of you, so you must be put to rest.
Hopefully a good shoe replacement is just around the corner, but nonetheless, you will be missed.

I’m doubling over laughing! I feel your pain! I had to go through all of my shoes and get rid of 2 pairs. Spring Cleaning!
That’s what I’m in the midst of doing too! So sad, but necessary 🙁
Is there anything sadder than having to get rid of a favorite pair of shoes? Those are so cute to 🙁 Hopefully you have had lots of great memories. Plus, now you have an excuse to replace them!!
Exactly!!
