Because I am Weak
Yes, I succumbed. But, they are adorable, aren’t they?! The salesman totally buttered me up, saying I had THE foot for this kind of peep-toe, and that they needed a perfect pedicure, like mine. I knew he was laying it on, but I ate it up anyway - it made this girl feel good! He continued by saying, "Men LOVE women in shoes like this. You are so tall, this makes you all legs! And men love pedicured toes, trust me!" I laughed, "Actually my husband hates shoes and doesn't see the point of pedicures".
Thanks to Kim for tipping me off to the fact that come Saturday, they’ll be on sale at Nordstrom – I’ll have to take them in next week to get a partial discount.
Also - yes - my feet are very very narrow - see how much the strap hovers above my foot? I’m going to have to get those taken in a bit. But? So. Worth. It.
Abigail is getting married in November. I MUST find a way to wear these to the wedding. Which means I need a new outfit, of course! This is how it starts...no wonder my husband hates it when I buy shoes.
Who am I?

I wasn't going to say anything before when you were wishing for them because that would be just mean, but I HAVE THESE SHOES!
Mine don't have the toe peep, and I think I have a different color, but they are otherwise the same shoe.
They are so comfy, and so worth the price. I have arch issues, and decided I was done buying cheap shoes that hurt my feet and knees. I have just a few pairs of shoes now, but they are all comfortable and functional.
It's an investment into my good health!

Oh, I saw this coming a mile away! The only reason you didn't get them sooner was your crazy schedule and this was your first chance to get to the mall.
They are so cute! And I think the brown is even better than the black. Darling!

I LOVE THEM!!!!
I thought cute shoes like this would only look good on someone with tiny feet (ahem, jenzug) but you have given me and my size 12's hope. They are lovely!
