Blond doll
This city cannot get any warmer. I feel sidewalks may start melting any minute now. I never thought i'd actually look forward to my air conditioned office.

Last Friday afternoon, in a heroic act of brave shopper, i had a little stroll to look for my 'magical marrying shoes', despite the heat and the fact that it was early so many stores were still closed. No excuses for a true shoe hunter on a September Wedding Project.

After a couple of closed shops i landed in front of a window featuring cute strass sandals, where three women were discussing the dimensions of a heel on one of the shoes.

One of them was outstanding. She wore a very minidress, tight, lime green tones, combined with extremely tanned legs and vertigo white heels. She was bright blond and wore several coats of make up. She was definitely one of those traffic stoppers. Men openly gazed at her.

Two workers from a construction site nearby stepped out of a building to download their cement bags. I was standing next to them when one of them commented on the blond girl. His friend looked in her direction and said "she's no different from my daughter's barbie doll".
