06/ Wilmington wearing Tuxedo Heels

On my 21st birthday I naturally decided I needed a new pair of grown up heels to wear out to celebrate.  What I came home with were the most beautiful pair of black and white cut out, sky high “tuxedo” heels – all laced up like a present to myself.  At the time my sister was living in Wilmington, DE in an older part of the city that had a long strip of bars and an even longer path of cobbled bricks that led us home.  I’ve still got the scar on my left knee cap from that night’s walk – but, I’ve still got the shoes too (miraculously without a scratch).
