Missing: Self-Control

I always seem to out do myself with each sale season. When this F/W sales first started, I told myself that I was only allowed 3 pairs of sale shoes. 10 pairs of sale shoes, 2 pairs of regular priced shoes, 2 Chanels, and 1 Bal later, my self-control is finally making a come back. I think, I hope. The reappearance of my self-control is actually why I haven't been blogging this week. For the sake of my sanity, I've been busy trying to edit my sale shoes. Heres what I came up with:

Keeping (these are in addition to the shoes that I've already posted):

Chloe wedges on sale at Saks:



These are just adorable and SOOOOO incredibly comfortable. In fact, I might try to hunt down a pair for my mom...

Lanvin pumps on sale at BNY:



I originally was trying on the burgundy version but when I asked the SA to look for a smaller size, he came back with this bronze patent. Once they were on my feet, I think I actually started jumping up and down out of pure shoe joy :) I think these might actually be one of my favorite sale purchases this year.

Plum suede Ataldama on sale at Saks:


Most stores were REALLy low on stock this year so I feel incredibly lucky to have scored these from the Saks pre-sale. Thank you Shopping Gods and my wonderful SA in Atlanta!!


Rouge patent Rolando on sale at Saks:


Again, very lucky find :) These are about 1/2 size too small for me but no worries - I'm almost an expert when it comes to stretching shoes! To be honest, I'm a bit on the fence about keeping these. I already have the Biancas in the rouge patent and I have 3 other pairs of Rolandos in my closet. Not sure if this is really necessary buuuuuuuut I just feel like I would regret returning these shoes...especially since I've had red Rolandos on my list for awhile now. HELP!!! What do you think?? Keep or return??


Returning:

YSL Divine booties on sale at Saks and BNY:


These are amazing shoes but at the end of the day, not really me. I think its the heel that bugs me. I dont know..they looked great while I was at the store but when I got home, I wasn't so into them anymore.

Lady Lynch in nude glitter from NM online (not on sale):


I've been getting so many lovely comments from all of you about how pretty these shoes are but unfortunately, they're not as lovely to walk in. I know, so unlike me...returning shoes because I can't walk in them!! Sigh. I would've definitely kept these if I didn't get so carried away with the shopping but since I did, I had to eliminate shoes that I knew wouldn't get much wear. I went back and forth on these for about two days before I finally sent them away...SOB.

Silver goa Rolando on sale from NM online: Sorry, I didn't even get a chance to take a picture of these (they're also completely sold out online so I can't even copy and paste a pic for you...)! My dad was a bit too eager and returned these before I got a chance to take pics and have DZ try them on :( These were really pretty but way too big for me. Even with double and triple padding, they still felt loose and were not comfy at all.


So there you have it. My net = 8 pairs of sale shoes, 1 pair of regular priced shoes (ETA: this Friday!!!), 2 Chanels, and 1 Bal (ETA: next week??). At one point, I'm going to have to remember to buy new clothes...


Annnnd...this is for BCBG :)
