Try As I Might...



There are just some shoes I can't pull off.  I would love them and order them from my favorite shoe emporium that offers free shipping and free returns as well as great prices.  But alas, either my "objets du desir" were too "runway model" for me to wear with my short and chunky legs or they were uncomfortable or... see for yourself.

I lusted mightily over these.  But I have nothing to wear them with.



These are by the same maker and gorgeous.  Unfortunately, they looked better sitting on the mantlepiece than on my feet.



I loved these passionately.  But the heels were too tall, even for me.



My date thought these looked like biker boots despite the fine quality leather and original selling price of $1,500.  I  guess it's like when he points out a new car model he lusts after and I say, "Oh, that reminds me of a (Camaro, Pinto, PT Cruiser) and he is crushed and says, "But noooo, it is a (Fill in the blank) and it costs (Fill in the hundreds of thousands of dollars)".



But here are some I did give in to because they are comfortable.  Although I am still a fan of "prosti-pumps"  I have enjoyed getting some really high end shoes that I was able to find for Payless Shoe store prices.




Like these.




Now if I could only get my hands on a pair of these...





PS:

Don't these remind you of a yak?  I do not lust after these.  I am not completely insane.
