  18. Wow, gorgeous shoes!

    What´s this band playing in the backround? Good sound. Could you answer to my blog, cause I´m not sure will I find my way here anymore. Not like I wouldn´t like your blog, cause it´s great, but I visit so many blogs every day that it´s impossible to remember what was that blog where I proposed that question and so on.
