There must be a force out there in the universal that is handing out discounts. I say this because I have been getting hookups lately when I am out shopping. You all know about my dilemma finding the perfect pair of wedges last Friday. Well I didn't tell y'all about the continuation of it last Saturday. I left out my house early to hit the stores to find the shoe I needed to wear to the Bob Marley Wear Affair that night. I first stopped at Marshalls in Columbia, MD, they usually have a nice selection of shoes. But I didn't find what I was looking for to wear that night. I did find a pair of wedge sandals and open toe wedges (more on those later). Next up I went to DSW (funny that the same pair of shoes I got in Marshalls were in DSW for a higher price) I didn't see anything in there either. So I ventured on to Columbia Mall.
The first store I went in was Macy's (they were having a great sale on boots!), looked around and didn't see anything. I then proceeded to do what I did the day before and I went to EVERY store that sold shoes in the mall. I saw a nice pair of wedge booties in Bakers but I REFUSED to pay $90 for a pair of shoes in there. I saw another pair in JCPenny's but I wasn't really feeling the patent leather. I decided to go back to Macy's and just get a cute pair of booties as it seemed like I would never find the wedge I wanted. I found a cute pair of Nine West boots that were on sale for about $38. Then something caught my eye...the Guess by Marciano Cala Wedge Bootie
Supposedly they only had the bootie in a size 7.5 but I was not going to let this shoe slip out of my hand. I asked the associate to check to see if they had it or if I can get it at another store. Lowe and behold they had my size!!!!
The deets - this shoe retails for $258, Macy's had them marked down to $189. Then the sale price came to $134. Well the store associate hooked my up and I got them for ....wait for it....$99 SWEET FREAKING DEAL!!!!!
I wore them Saturday night - all night with no problems. I believe these will become my go to shoes :)
S/n they are sold out on every site I looked at

I'm back!!!!
I can't believe I haven't made a post since last April. I guess being laid off and not having the extra money to shop, I stopped looking at shoes. Which meant I abandoned this blog. Well I am back! I'm not going to promise to post every day or every week but I will not go almost a year before making another post.
Well anyway I was out and about yesterday trying to find a pair of black wedges. I think I went into every shoe store in the mall trying to find this perfect wedge (this is why I prefer online shopping). I finally found them when I went into Saks. I came across the LAMB Novice Wedge, the price tag said $189 (and some change) with 30% off. Technically, I am still unemployed so I wasn't trying to spend that much even though I really really wanted to. I reluctantly put the shoe back and left the store.
Next I went into Last Call. I found a pair of Mark & James by Badgley Mischka Dante Wedge. I tried them on and they looked great on me! I checked the price tag $190 (damnit!), so I asked the sale associate were they on sale. She wasn't sure so I went to the cashier to see if they can do a price check. She didn't think they were on sale but checked anyway, it came back the price was $114. Sweet freaking deal considering these shoes retail for $265. But again I wasn't really feeling the hundred dollar price tag.
After that I went to Aldo and didn't find anything. I decided to leave the mall and go home to do what I do best, search for the best price online....
This is the Mark & James by Badgley Mischka Dante wedge. You can get it on Piperlime for $99.97 with free shipping.

UPDATE: I just got an alert that Shopbop has the LAMB wedges on sale for $137.50
