Raspberry Jellies

As a child, I had a collection of close to a dozen Jelly sandals in candy pinks and shimmery silvers.  Little did I realize that my love for this rubbery footwear would remain strong until I spotted these Marni Rubber Buckle Strap Pumps at the Barneys Warehouse sale.  The deep raspberry color and contrasting buckle make these almost edible in their appeal and I love the way they slightly glisten in the sun.  They’re certainly not the most practical shoes in my closet, but they sure make me the happiest.

    For some reason the raspberry shoes paired with the yellow tights makes me think of Alice in Wonderland. It’s just so perfect!

    I remember jelly shoes. Last summer Target brought out jelly sandals for grownups that looked a lot like the jellies that were so popular in the nineties. But I like these purple Marni jellies even better!

    My clearest memory of jelly shoes is from Zimbabwe – we went on a bush walk on a school trip, up some balancing rocks, and one of the girls in my class was wearing high-heeled, transparent, glittery jelly-shoes. Most inappropriate footwear ever. She broke off both heels within about five minutes. They were amazing shoes, though, and I don’t blame her for tottering through the African bush in them! :)

    What a perfect 80s tribute! I L-O-V-E-D jellies when I was a little girl. And I L-O-V-E these!! The way you paired them with the white dress and yellow tights is unexpected and darling.
