Shoesday - October 25, 2011

.
This is a special Shoesday; a day when dreams come true. (Cue the harp music; crescendo the angelic choir; release the doves........)
.
Do you remember my hunting trip in the city? And the post I did showing you the gorgeous red shoes that I found at Naturalizer? The ones that I left on the shelf because of the price? The ones that were $79.99 + 15% HST -- on sale! I showed such good restraint, didn't I.
.
Then last week, I received an e-mail coupon from Naturalizer for 30% off any shoe (sale items included) plus free shipping AND a $50 cheque from my Mommy (late birthday gift). Serendipity once again, I'd say! (And I believe I saw the moon and all the stars aligned that night!)
.
One week later, look what arrived in the mail...
.
They are so comfortable. And look how pretty they look on my feet! Now I should be sure to find a man, right?

(Although they do make me want to say

"There's no place like home! There's no place like home!)

.

.

And as if a day couldn't get any better, I got a call to say I won the Halloween draw at Frenchies. I won these cute little scarecrows!.And if by some chance I meet up with a lion and a tin man before the night is through, I'll know I'm not in Kansas anymore!
.
Don't you love late birthday gifts!
Shoes -- They're a good thing.

Beautiful shoes, I have not seen that style by Naturalizer yet. A girl can never have to many pair of shoes. Very cute and I bet they are comfortable. Happy belated B-day!!

I think you need to buy some lottery tickets....quick., Nice looking shoes and Naturalizers are comfortable, enjoy. Not sure about man bait though, they aren't usually looking that far down!!! Lol

The shoes are gorgeous. I'd have to click my heels together in delight. The scarecrows are adorable. Sometimes we get lucky. Happy Belated Birthday. ENJOY your gifts. Take care.

Well, happy belated birthday to you! I'm glad you were blessed with the shoes. (I have the same coupon but no birthday money - hmmmm - boots??). I guess what with all you buy at Frenchie's you deserved to win the scarecrows. Have a great day!

wonderful shoes--Naturalizer has really come a long way in the appearance of their shoes because those are freaking fabulous--and smart too, because high heels can be TORTURE.

Gorgeous shoes - nice bit of toe cleavage. Your restraint was well rewarded.

Linda said...

Happy Birthday! Dang. I never get gifts like that - on time or late. The shoes are beautiful! Hope the paths they take you on are all pleasant ones.
