A short while ago I went over to one of my favorite stores,Target, looking for a pair of winter boots. I ended up getting a cute pair of black flats instead. I didn't need another pair of black flats, but I couldn't resist.
I was wearing the new shoes to work a few days later and then it suddenly hit me that my shoes matched almost perfectly with a purse I had gotten as a gift a few years earlier and happened to be using that day. I pointed it out to a couple of girls that I work with that I am friends with and they seemed pretty impressed by how well they matched since it was just a coincidence.
I pointed it out to The Boyfriend a little while later and he was not nearly as impressed. He did not think they were close to a perfect match. He thought the colors were a little different and the material was different. He didn't think they matched any better than any other black purse and black shoes. Now I know they weren't a perfect match, but they never will be unless they were made together and meant to match. But to get them at completely different times and completely different stores, I thought it was pretty neat.
