I want penny loafers again...in a bad way. And not just because I want(ed) to be Stacy from the Babysitters Club. You don't have to look like you're in 6th grade anymore when wearing penny loafers! They will look awesome with cuffed jeans or even a mini skirt with tights.
To loaf or not to loaf? I wish I still fit into my pair from elementary school.

Oh my gosh - love the patent. I had oxblood and black and wore them all the time in gr.7/8 then something happened and I got into the real pointy flats and peter pan boots....anyone else?
Great blog.
i wanted to be stacey in the worst way. i'm still hunting for my perfect pair of oxfords but the loafers are a great flat alternative too!

Yes! I definitely had a pair of penny loafers and put pennies in them. I loved those shoes. I kind of want a pair now too. Especially in this color you posted. What a great look!

Yes I definitely had a pair and I forgot all about them until I saw this post :)
I totally had them - my mom had a pair when she was young and insisted...and she supplied the pennies, too :)

I just gave away a pair of penny loafers this summer... so bummed!
Absolutely to loaf! ;) Isn't it funny that things we had to wear as children were awful at the time, and now so irresistibly cool?! Great post and blog - am following and looking forward to more! xx

umm, tell me you've read What Claudia Wore
http://www.whatclaudiawore.com/
It is a hilarious blog which breaks down that section in every Baby-Sitters Club book where each girl's clothing is described in detail. (ie the best part of every book).
And in further "get outta my head" news for today, I was wearing my shiny penny loafers last week and actually went through my wallet, inspecting all of my change to see if i had any pennies shiny enough to go in my penny slot. (I didn't).
