Beginnings

We love shoes. And we love casual footwear of the plimsole or sneaker variety. There's simply something liberating and magical about throwing on a favourite dress and sneakers for your weekend adventures. Pretty and ready for anything. After all, there are places to go and things to see.

And we found the idea wrapped around our heads obstinately. Because sometimes we envy the boys and their sneaker wonderlands - they step into a shop and it's filled wih canvas and rubber that they might like.

We'd like that too, we find our inner voice saying. But we want it different. There'd be casual footwear and there'd be pretty clothes to match them with. There'd be books, magazines and our favourite music. Knickknacks to fiddle with, people to observe and things to discover. A place our canvas-shod selves would be glad to hang around in every weekend.

And then we wondered, why not?
