Back in the saddle

It’s been a long long time since my last posting. What can I say? A new job and getting married last year meant something  had to give. I still shopped a ton, I just didn’t blog about it. But I’m back, baby!

Today I’m feeling indignant on the behalf of Manolo Blahnik. Just look at this cheap knock of Sedaraby produced by Steve Madden!

Cheap Knock Off

Cheap Knock Off, Way to go Steve Madden

Seeing as how the real deal were my wedding shoes, I just think it’s wrong.

Full disclosure, I was totally into a pair of White House Black Market shoes that were clearly a Jimmy Choo knock off, but I just don’t have that loyalty to the Choo, I guess. Sorry, buddy.

I did it!

Saturday I innocently went to Neiman Marcus. My objective: wedding shoes. I was thinking I’d go with these classic Stuart Weitzman’s:

Which, by the way, are normally $325 and are currently on sale on the website for $163

But while I was there, I thought, “why not try on those Manolo Blahniks?”

And I did.

And I don’t know that I’ve ever grinned or beamed as much over a pair of shoes. Which is saying quite a lot.

And now, I own these.
