Tonight I went on Ebay to mark a package as shipped because I just sold my crazy pink stilettos. There must have been a palpable dearth of pink shoes in the apartment with the stilettos gone, because in short order, I succumbed to these really neat pink and purple shoes by Isaac Mizrahi. I confess, I suspect I bought them in part because I so enjoyed reading his book “How to Have Style” last spring. It’s a light, funny read and provided a welcome distraction while visiting family
I don’t buy leather shoes new, but I am okay with buying them second hand (high five for recycling!). The listing said they were made in Italy and originally cost $265; that’s definitely a world apart from the many pairs of cheap made in China plastic crap shoes I have in my closet. I am hoping it means they will be more comfortable, even with that heel. (That heel! Why am I still buying heels?! I live in my hiking boots!) I will just have to learn to run for the bus in these.
