Back with even more shoe lust..

I have conquered the weight loss, and now that it is fully under control, I can concentrate on that which is most important: SHOES!!! This summer I found some cute ones including some hot black Louboutins, cute blue denim Diors, and sweet pink striped Havaianas. I cannot wait until Fall..the knee high, and over the knee boots are extremely hot, and I already have my eyes on some HOTTTTTT Loubs. I mean over the top HOT!!

More shoes and lust to follow..I cannot wait to start blogging again,and finally figure out, just how many pairs of shoes that I own!!

My adventure at Marshalls' Shoe MegaShop!!!

Click above for the Marshall's fun contest!!!





So today I took a trip up to Manhattan's Uptown (Harlem) location for the Marshall's Shoe MegaShop. It was amazing. There were sooo many shoes and boots that I could not make up my mind what to buy.

Marshalls has always been one of my favorite place to buy shoes and clothes for a steal!! They have famous name brands for less, and it is fun to search the racks for treasure!!

Plus they have a fab game on their site, where you can win real prizes, just click the widget at the top of this post!!

The shoe dep't uptown had so many rows of 7's (my size), I did not know where to start! I tried on 5 pairs of pumps since there were many sophisticated styles for my new wardrobe (I am a size 6 again!!) and although there were oodles of cute boots (including my faves, Uggs) I kept to the heels and platforms.

After walking up and down the expansive aisles, I chose some classic, pretty, black Kate Spade heels. I will add a photo tomorrow, after my pedicure!!

Here are the photos from my adventure:












All these fab shoes :)



Which ones??










Stuart Weitzmans?

It was a great day, and I found some gorgeous shoes!! These are the classic kate spades, that I eventually picked and bought!! I cannot wait to wear them!!

Thanks Marshall's for making shoe shopping fun! And thanks to my sweet husband Duncan for keeping me company and taking some marvelous photos!!

A day off to shoe shop...

Tomorrow I have a whole day off from my workout program, the gym and any responsibilities. So....I am going shoe shopping. I know, big surprise. I have an exciting day trip planned, and I will tell you all about it in my next blog. Until then, I will leave you to ponder where I will be going, and what I shall buy. I don't really need any shoes for this season, but maybe I will find some lovely brown boots... or black pumps...or ????

Or maybe I will buy something for spring. Hmmm...

Spring 2009

These??

or these?

Until tomorrow..

A Premiere, More Sales and Lusts...

Before it gets too cold to wear them, I am dusting off the Black Louboutins, and wearing them with a new dress to the Premiere of "Australia" on Monday night. I will let you know if I catch a glimpse of Nicole Kidman...although I am sure it will be paparazzi crazy, and I am not sure where my seats are located.

In the meantime, more shoe & boot sales and lusts are in order, darn it!

Boots are on sale at Chinese Laundry:

These, have been featured on Oprah, and are vegan friendly. Find others on sale at that link.
