Several months ago, I made a gross error in judgment. I saw a great pair of sandals on sale at Bloomingdale's— and I let them go. They were marked down from $410 to $142, and I thought I was being a disciplined, liberated woman by telling myself, "That's $142 more than you need to spend on shoes right now. Just walk away, and after you do, you will not think about those shoes again." Nope, wrong.I called the department store the next day, but the sandals had been sold. I've searched up and down (the Internet, the mall, the outlets) since then, but have only found the equivalent pair in army green—I'd wanted the nude—and even then at twice the price.
Marc by Marc Jacobs. Style name: Goat. Any shoe purveyors out there recognize this fine pair? They're the ones that got away.

Ok, I know you will think that of course I would say this, but those aren't as awesome as you think they are. You can look right down in there!
Seriously, I think there are too many brads and pins and stuff. I'm into sexy sandals, but the architect in me makes me more of a shoe modernist. As opposed to a show postmodernist. Perhaps I'm even a shoe classicist. Or a shoe expressionist.
