This is my favorite shoe ever&#8230;ever!! All of my friends had Capezio shoes and I didn&#8217;t. I begged my parents to get them for me and it fell on deaf ears. They were &#8220;too expensive.&#8221; You have to understand, I was in 7th grade and all the seniors were wearing these. Since I looked up to these girls, all I wanted in my 12 year old life was to have these beautiful shoes. \u00a0My friends all had them too and I was the only one in &#8220;my group&#8221; that didn&#8217;t. We all know how that feels. So I asked my parents if I could somehow earn the money to buy them, would they even allow me to get them. They said yes.. I think mostly because they didn&#8217;t really think I could do it. But even back then if I wanted something bad enough I would find a way to get it. So I got a &#8220;job.&#8221; \u00a0I started babysitting for a family up the street. They had 3 kids, two of the kids were really sweet and good kids, but the youngest a 3 year old was a real pistol. He was so bad, they had run out of babysitters who would even set foot in their house. So they were very happy to have me. Believe me when I say I earned every penny of the money they paid me and more. It was like something out of a horror movie watching this kid. But I had a goal and when I reached the amount I needed to buy my beloved Capezios none of that mattered. The day Mom and I went downtown to get my shoes was I think the happiest day of my life. I got the shoes I coveted for so long and I paid for them myself. All was right in my world that day, I had my shoes! I wore them home on the bus and slept with them right beside me that night. I couldn&#8217;t risk my little sister trying them on and ruining them. I proudly wore my new shoes to school the next day and I was finally &#8220;in style.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I have not been able to find a picture of Capezios, the twin button kind I so loved anywhere on the internet. You can find anything on the internet, why not these? There are a few other styles but no twin button ones like mine. A group of friends were talking about this recently and one of them told me she still had her shoes. Yes, the ones she wore in high school. So I asked her to send me a photo of them. They are pictured below. I couldn&#8217;t believe I finally had a picture, only difference is hers are red. The one and only picture I have of mine is the one above of me wearing my black ones. I don&#8217;t know what ever happened to my shoes. I miss them&#8230;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_316\" style=\"width: 179px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/helpfulhellion.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/V__2717.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-316\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-316\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-316\" src=\"http:\/\/helpfulhellion.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/V__2717-169x300.jpg\" alt=\"Linda's Capezios\" width=\"169\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/helpfulhellion.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/V__2717-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/helpfulhellion.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/V__2717-768x1364.jpg 768w, https:\/\/helpfulhellion.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/V__2717-577x1024.jpg 577w, https:\/\/helpfulhellion.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/V__2717.jpg 901w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 169px) 100vw, 169px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-316\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Linda&#8217;s Capezios<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_314\" style=\"width: 391px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/helpfulhellion.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/197020-20picnic20williams20st.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-314\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-314\" class=\"size-full wp-image-314\" src=\"http:\/\/helpfulhellion.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/197020-20picnic20williams20st.jpg\" alt=\"Penny Loafers\" width=\"381\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/helpfulhellion.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/197020-20picnic20williams20st.jpg 381w, https:\/\/helpfulhellion.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/197020-20picnic20williams20st-286x300.jpg 286w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 381px) 100vw, 381px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-314\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Penny Loafers<\/p><\/div>\n<p>After the Capezios came the penny loafer.

So I wear a lot of boots. I wear them all winter long and if they weren&#8217;t so darn hot I would wear them all summer. I love boots. I am into the ankle boots now as well. They are so good for the transition between Spring and Summer. I do love sandals and flip flops for the hot summer months and have a ton of them too.<\/p>\n<p>Right now I am searching for the prefect ballerina type flats. But really I guess I will always be searching for that perfect shoe I once had and loved so much. I loved the look of them, the feel of them and last but not least the smell of them. There was a certain smell Capezios had and no other shoe has come close. Ok, I do know how that sounds, but it&#8217;s true. I don&#8217;t know if it was a Pennsylvania thing or if girls in other states were as attached to their Capezios as we were. Sadly Capezio is only making shoes for dance now, even after all of our emails and phone calls to them. I did find a pair a few years back, Clark was making them, they weren&#8217;t the same style but they were Capezios. They only had one size left&#8230;a size 6 and since I wear an 8, they really are a smidgen tight. In reality I can&#8217;t get the shoe even half way on my foot. But I have them. I have a pair of Capezios. I open the box now and then and smell them.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I hope you enjoyed my photo trip down shoe memory lane&#8230; I leave you as always with a quote and a question.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;One shoe can change your life&#8221; ~ Cinderella<\/p>\n<p>What was your favorite shoe?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0how it all began&#8230; &nbsp; I think it started when I was a baby.
