I don't know what's come over me. This is NOT me..... I'm Serene. I'm thrifty. I put together $10 outfits. I try to rise above clothes and shoe lust. But oh my word....these babies, I REALLY REALLY REALLY want sooooooooooo bad! Nine West, I'll scrub your toilets! I'll write your emails! I'll hang dead chickens on the door of your enemies! Need something done? I'm your Girl Friday!!! But I MUST. HAVE. THESE. SHOES!!!!!!!
Okay, I've gone for a bike ride and hopefully gotten it out of my system for now! I don't normally do these kind of posts, but what can I say? At the end of the day........I'm just a woman......who loves a shoe. (Heavy Sigh)
Icant even be a good friend and tell u not to get them because they're so cute! Could you compromise/no new clothes for the month and get the shoes instead? That way they wouldn't break your thrifty ways :)
ReplyDeleteAwwww Katherine, they ARE!! This is why I try not to surf the internet too much!
DeleteOK...You ARE human!! All of us attempting to live frugally and with good, common sense have our moments when we just have to bow to beauty! This is yours. My problem is that once it is in my mind....I ususally find a way to make it happen...even if cleaning toliets is the answer! You could pass a "buy Serene the shoes plate!" But, I predict these shoes are in your future! Good luck...of course, let us know how it turns out! Love Ya!
ReplyDeletePam, I'm the SAME way! LOL I'll plot and plan and figure.....that's why I try not to let these little things slip into my head, but oh MY I do love them!
DeleteI'm with Pam, have a rent party, only it's on your blog and it's a shoe party to get you these shoes. I love that they are 9 West, when I first saw them I thought for sure they'd be Miu Miu and then, you know, that's like $600. But 9 West? Please get them for yourself! Or add a little button for us all to chip in for you! I would contribute! XO, Jill
ReplyDeleteOh Jill, you are too sweet! I just need to find a way! For less than $200 I could have 2 of the 3 pair on the list.....hmmmmmm....wheels are spinning!
DeleteYES!! YES!!! Those first 2 pairs are amaaaazing!!!
ReplyDeleteEEEK!
I know patience sux,but I bet you'll be able to find them secondhand on E Bay or somewhere before you know it!
XXX
I know, right?!?! Patience has never been my virtue, but I try to tell myself that I'm pretty low maintenance in most other areas, so it's okay to splurge every now and then. Just have to figure out how to make these babies mine!
DeleteAh, I love that last pair sooooo much!! I'll go without my starbucks for a month : >
ReplyDeleteNo no no Patti! Drink you're coffee and I'll figure out how to get them and then we'll go have coffee TOGETHER!!!
DeleteI, for one, am heading over to your Ebay items to see what I want to buy to add to your shoe fund! I love the colors in the last shoe. I find that I wear my teal shoes more than any other pair.
ReplyDeleteBeryl, I love that last pair sooooo much! They are just FABULOUS! It seems like you can wear thrifted stuff all the time, just pair it with some great shoes and you'll look like a million bucks!
DeleteI can totally understand it for the last pair. That's not very helpful, is it?
ReplyDeleteNo wonder you want them, they are super cute and I'm sure they would look great on you! =D I especially like the last pair!
ReplyDeleteThey are great looking, look walkable and are very you! I hope there's a 9 West sale going on somewhere and you can get them for a song.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty shoes and they would look great on you. If you sign up for emails on 9West, you can get some great deals at times!
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately I'd have to encourage you to indulge!! They are super cute!!
