Shoe Haul A'Comin!

Not today though, I don't get paid until Thursday ;)

My dad helped me out by randomly dropping by work during my shift on Saturday. I had no idea what to get him for his birthday coming up (why are men so hard to shop for?) and he fell in love with a pair of Converse AND even tried them on so I don't have to go size-guessing or worry about having to return.

I've been eyeing these since they came in for myself actually. Would it be weird to have the same shoes as my dad..?

I actually just shed some tears while searching for an image of the shoe. I thought it would be fastest for me to go to the Converse website for the picture and when I did I saw that these were clearanced for $29.99, at my work they would cost me $70 before tax, and excitedly clicked on them.. only to get a message saying they no longer carry the style. Not cool Converse, not cool. Guess I'm shelling out the $70 still.

Now about my haul o' shoes! We got a shipment today that included these cute moccasin booties by Ziggy Soho, can't get a picture of them though since they're so new. I was surprised actually because even the designer's site doesn't have them posted. They're black and at first I thought they were suede but they're actually fabric, and there is some blue beading on the toe. My co-worker showed them to me because she thought I'd like them, she's the reason I spend so much money there! I tried them on and they were a little bit tight but the cuteness factor makes me overlook that, also they will stretch a bit which will take care of it.

There are also a couple pairs in clearance, one being a hot pink Nine West sandal for $20 (OMG Nine West for $20?!?!?) and a Ralph Lauren military'ish style black bootie for $69.99. The bootie was a return from last week, I haven't tried it on so I'm not sure if they're comfy or not.. since the clearance price is still a bit high for me I won't buy them unless they are comfortable. Those Nine West sandals are coming with me no matter what though, really can't beat that price!

I was also debating getting a Pippa Bag from Modalu London but I think the price tag is a little too much for me right now.

Sophisticated, no? I love this purse to DEATH. We don't have it in store yet but we carried it before Christmas and it sold out FAST. It's about $250, I would get 40% off that but still.. not cheap. Not entirely sure about the quality though, we had a couple exchanges because there were a lot of loose threads showing on the front of the purses. I'm not sure if these were just isolated incidents? Either way, too rich for my blood right now, but I can still drool over it..

That's all for today! Hopefully no one's taken my soon-to-be shoes from clearance, I'll try to get decent pictures of my new babies when I bring them home on Thursday.
