Clari’s Whims

I decided they needed their own page…

…Here goes nothing.

These lovely darlings came from Bakers, not DSW, but I bought them after I started working. Do you ever fall in love with something and then you can’t buy anything else until you’ve got it? Yup, I was hell bent on these shoes, and they were worth it. They are one of my favorite pairs and I wear them all the time

These were the first shoes that I bought at DSW with my lovely discount. They are Via Spiga, and I think they came out relatively cheap. I am still waiting for a fancy affair to wear them to…perhaps Kristi’s rehearsal dinner?

BCBG Girls wedges…liked these the moment I put them on. I’ve worn these a few times. They are cute and I don’t have many ‘wear with jeans’ kinds of black summer shoes…so they are functional!

Unisa…brown patent leather with my favorite; peep toe, and a buckle, another favorite. These are clearly fall shoes, and will be worn when fall arrives.

Naughty Monkey. My favorite brand that I pined after and didn’t have the ability to justify. They were very clearly a return because our store doesn’t even sell them. They probably came from King of Prussia. I loved the shoe, not the brand, and so I hid it until our clearance rotated and I could get 40% off of them. The day I bought them Jenny said “oh, the Naughty Monkeys!” and I was so excited because it was really two birds, one stone…my shoes I loved turned out to be one of my favorite brands!

These are from the same company as Naughty Monkey. I’ve had my eye on them for awhile but never actually got them…well, with the clearance rotation and my discount, they wound up being twelve dollars. I couldn’t resist…

These…I need silver shoes for Kristi’s wedding (which at this point is two days away) I tried to beg, borrow, and steal (okay, not steal) so that I wouldn’t have to buy shoes that I HAD to buy. Nothing is worse than turning your guilty pleasure into a totally rational and accepted thing… So I searched high and low and could not find shoes. Finally I went to King of Prussia DSW and settled on these. They are more my taste than all the others I’ve found, and they look okay on my feet…

…but it wouldn’t be a trip to a shoe store without the guilty part. These beautiful, amazing, comfortable, wonderful heels are Givenchy. They are italian made. They are soft. They are trendy, and they were 300 dollars. WERE. I got them for sixty. They were seventy percent off and then I had my discount. BOOYAH!
