Low end high

OK, I may as well just say it. I bought a pair of shoes at Payless. I still can't believe it. I cannot stand that cheesy store. And yet ...

So I have a few skirts that can swing from summer to fall. Problem is, I only have sandals to wear with them and I can't bring myself to do open-toe shoes at this point in the year. At least not to work. So I needed transition shoes. Something made me stop in Payless just for the hell of it. And what do I see? Black suede slingbacks with a nice heel and a bow on the front. Exactly what I need. So I put them on and they're as comfortable as can be. They look expensive. Hmmmmm. Too good to be true? I look at the price -- they're $16.99! Are you kidding me? Wrap 'em up.

Frankly, the rest of the selections there didn't do much for me. But I found my gem and made for the register. Already tried them on with the skirts. So great. One little purchase can have a major impact. I love the challenge of that, the creativity of it.

I'll be strutting in them tomorrow morning ...
