Shoe Envy

I have a problem. I think many of us have the same problem - SHOES! Actually, come to think of it I don't really think it's a problem at all. Shoes after all are a necessity. We cannot walk around bare footed all the time, that's just not hygienic AND an outfit is never complete without the right pair. So, the problem really is not the amount of shoes I have or buy it's more that there aren't enough days in a year to wear them all.

While on a recent girls getaway, J (and it wasn't me!) was lucky enough to score an amazing pair of shoes! While trying to recover from a night of drinking (some drink Bloody Mary's we use Retail Therapy) we went shopping. It just so happened that Nordstrom had just finished their double mark downs! This is a sign of a failing economy if I've ever seen one! When have you ever heard of Nordstrom having to do such a thing? But who's complaining? NOT ME! My fortunate friend spied an adorable pair of black patent Miu Miu's complete with a sweet bow. Not only were they sexy with the fuchsia soles but they were a steal at around $200, originally priced well over $500! She snatched them up with a quickness!

You know I scoured the racks looking for my size, but sadly the Shoe Gods were not as kind to me. And while I am stricken with severe shoe envy I feel better knowing that someone I know and love has given these beauties a new home filled with love and adoration.
