On Monday, I was inadvertently led to the Saks Fifth Avenue after Christmas shoe sale. Mind you, I only went downtown with the hubby to pick up my pants from Nordstroms. After being led to Saks, I got caught up in the heat of moment. The only things I saw were other over zealous women and the big extra 50% off sale of shoes. So, I grabbed two shoes and had the Store Manager bring me the other two. In a hurry along with husband to leave Saks, I didn't check the pair of Jimmy Choos closely. When I got them home, they had some discoloration on one of the shoes maybe from moisture. I was upset. I have been trying to locate a comfortable nude colored shoe for about three years. I have tried Christian Louboutins, YSL, and most recently Brian Atwood. Well, yesterday, I had to trek back downtown to return the shoes and hopefully exchange it for another pair. I called Saks the night prior and a sales associate located 3 pair in Houston, Texas. However, another sales associate says that their system is slow to show updates and my best bet was to find other shoes in the store or just receive a refund. Well, I did find the same shoe that I was returning, but in black. Having huge flat feet, I couldn't just leave the shoes because they were comfortable and stylish. However, I still needed a nude heel. Well I was able to locate a peep toe Jimmy Choo pump in nude. Lucky for me, but bad for the wallet. That is why I hate going to the store, you end up purchasing things that you had no business purchasing. This is what we call impulse shopping or in my case overzealous shopping. Luckily for me, I am giving up shopping for 30 days as a part of a New Years Resolution with my church. The Creator says "Man can't live by manna alone." In my case, I know that Groupthink can not live by shoes alone.
Blessings!!!!!!!!
