I'm in Love!

I am in love, with Martinez Valero's "Whisper". It all started with the shoe below, and the gentleman at Nordstrom brought out 4 boxes... made me nervous, they usually only do that when they can't find the right size or color in the shoe you originally asked for. (Turns out the shoe I originally asked for didn't fit the arch of my foot)

Anyhoo, he pulled out the BCBGirls "Titta" and then said "But first, I really think this shoe fits you. It's not even on display yet, but matches the dresses in the windows."

I put it on and felt like I'd stepped on to a cloud! Never have I put a heel on that felt so comfortable, and it has just enough of a peep toe to show off my pretty new pedicure. *grin*

Sadly, due to a dye-from-a-box mishap that needed to be corrected by my fave colorist at Gene Juarez, I could not afford the "Whisper", the new love of my life. But now I have a goal!

And this is the cute little paton that started it all... It was actually in a sparkling brownish-pink color, the color of my parents' VW Bug, actually...

I've actually owned this shoe before, in a creme color with black detailing... I took it back because the buckle didn't fit my arch, for some reason I thought this season's release might be different enough to actually fit. Sadly, no, but not so sad.

And because I can, I'm going to post some more shoes I've been longing to buy! *sigh* oh, for the love of shoes!!! (and so many more to come!)

I'm in love too! The polka dots are adorable. I am so sorry the patent with the buckle didn't work. Those are lovely! How funny that our shoe choices really to describe us well. I can compleely see all those shoes on your feet with your gorgeous calves displayed under a swingy dress. You are a doll Melinda!
