Fashion Focus: Boat Shoes

I love shoes and I always notice the shoes people wear. That's one thing I noticed right off the bat when I met Jeff, he has great taste in shoes. When Jeff and I were in New York City back in September, I noticed that everyone had Sperry Top-Siders on. Seriously, EVERYONE had them on. I don't know if it's more of an east coast thing, but I love the classic, preppy look of those shoes. I also have a thing for the classic style that is usually seen with those shoes. I'm now thinking I need to add some boat shoes to my wardrobe. I remember having some navy boat shoes when I was a younger, I loved them. Funny how fashion repeats itself, if I could only fit in those shoes now.

I'm in love with the Angelfish style below. I just can't decide which color I like the best.

Sperry Top-Sider has recently opened the first stand alone store in Manhattan on Fifth Avenue. I'll have to put that store on my list for our next trip to New York City.
