New shoe finds

Stopping in with a pair of shoe finds that came yesterday, after Christmas shopping for others was done.

First, Manolo Blahnik khaki elastic, leather and cork sandals, also $40 at Nordstrom Rack. Most of the women who shop there must have small feet. How did this happen -- 93% off retail? We'll never know. I just plan to enjoy these.

Next, Sergio Rossi silver sandals, $40 at DSW at MetroPointe near South Coast Plaza. These will be my evening shoes for 2012 events. BTW, there were silver ankle-tie sandals left there in a size 41, same price. A slingback is better for me.
