St. Vincent de Paul - COLE HAAN SHOES!! woohoo
Had a wedding tonight so I went looking for a better dress than what I could find in my closet. Ended up finding a Rafaella wrap dress for $13 (wasn't a great price but far better than full price elsewhere). Then I was thinking that I didn't have any decent dressier shoes, just work-type conservative, nothing suitable for a wedding.
I wear size 10 or 11 shoes and rarely find shoes I'd even consider buying, not to mention most mfr's often make 10's in wide (why that is I do not know, just because my feet are long doesn't mean they are wide) - and second-hand shoes.... I'm not really a big fan of worn out shoes, I can do that on my own LOL.
But today!! Today I found a pair of sandal slide-on's in size 10, super cute, I don't even think they've been worn, no signs of wear at all!! There were a few others in 10 - Born flats, Clarks sandals, and some cute heels -- so someone with expensive taste recently must've donated!
The pair I bought are COLE HAAN NIKE AIR black criss-cross straps over top - sold at Nordstrom's Bloomingdale's, Macy's and high-end stores and I don't think Haan's sell for much less than $150, and often times far more than that.
My cost: $3.54
