Until recently.
I noticed that the same few pair of shoes that I wear to work during warmer weather have pretty much had it or else are getting rather battered. Two pair were purchased at least five years ago; another pair is two years old. The last one falls somewhere in between.
I don’t usually see shoes that I must have but I’ve seen more than my share in the past two weeks. The beauty is I paid less than $40 for every pair. In fact, I paid $30—or less, in most cases $25 or less after a 15 percent off everything sale– for every pair! As you can see, these are all in my “signature” colors: black and brown.
These were the ones that started all the trouble.
They’re black patent and I love the wedge heel. They are uber comfortable, too. The mother thinks they’re ugly. I get compliments at work though every time I’ve worn them. I’m not exactly a fashionista so that’s pretty cool.The brown heels were the other “must haves.”
I’d seen a pair in the store in another color and wished they were black – or brown. Then, I got a “hat trick” email earlier this month in which they were on sale, I got a discount off my total purchase and shipping was free. To top it off, those brown thong sandals just above them? Well, I got those in-store, too, but the same ad that had the heels also had the sandals in BLACK. (You can see them at the top of the first photo.) They didn't have them in the store in my size, but they did online. Yes, pinch me!So, I’m all set for summer now and probably for a summer or two to come. Unless something else comes along. I can justify it. I do have a birthday next month …
