Give me shoes until I drown in a sea of them

I "accidentally" came across a pair of melissa shoes on a shopping site I regularly abuse for their free shipping and returns with no minimum purchase. They had one pair left that just happened to be in my size, and on sale. . . for too much money for a pair of jellies, but they're sooo cute.



Unfortunately, once they arrived and I realized they smell like candy, are ridiculously comfortable, go with everything, and are pretty much the supershoe, I began to spend a grotesque amount of time on the melissa site torturing myself by adding shoes to my cart and pretending like I'm going to buy them. In the end, however, I force myself to close the tab before I have to put in my credit card information because we all know I can't afford $800 in shoes. If I could though, I would buy these:



I love these for the little strap detail. I originally saw a photo of this shoe on a foot and although it's a practical flat, that little detail gives it a bit of an edge.



These come in a variety of colors, but they just came out in the flat black and I'm having trouble not buying them. it's the $145AUD price tag (about $115 US) that kills me, ugh! If only it didn't have such a cute little peep toe . . .

I don't know if I even need to comment on why I want these.


It's less the shoe and more the color that I love about these. Don't get me wrong, I WANT the shoes, it's just that they're not my favorite out of the bunch. I do love the color though, it's a blue that goes with everything.





Here's a blue shoe I really want. That little silver button and the sweet little strap fucking kill me! I also really like the flocking on these. The velvet really works.


Here's another pair of jellies I really want . . . .


I'm really just including these for Alyson. I'm not much of a bow person, but I do love the gray flock, and that fucking peep toe! It kills me.

Oh yes, and these would go perfectly when Alyson buys this shirt

Anyways, so here's my birthday wish list. Are you shopping yet? You know there's only a little less than 2 months and 3 weeks left. I'll be here, phantom shopping with my credit card securely locked away in Bill's lock box. Silently sobbing.
