Oh my god. Oh my god. Ohhhhh my god. Today I tried on the most beautifully shiny and sexy, black strappy Manolo Blahnik pumps. They were BEAUTIFUL. I am SO HAPPY. AND GUESS WHAT. They were originally $695 but now on clearance for $312!!! Oh man, what an adrenaline rush.

Granted I still can't afford them but putting them on and walking around the store for some time felt wonderful. I truly felt blessed. Yes. I am blessed.

See! You CAN get Manolo Blahniks for under $400. All you have to do is make sure you go to an outlet mall and get them for way cheaper. You won't be presented with as much of a variety but hey, you can get lucky now and then and find a gorgeous pair of strappy Blahniks that also have a ribbon near the toe to tie a lovely bow :)

I took a pic of the heels with my camera phone and will upload later.

I also found a lovely pair of black Badgley Mischka heels. Oh they were just simply lovely. Originally $200 but on sale for $150. Still can't afford those but I did find an elegant pair of black pumps on sale at Guess for $48. Simply elegant.

I'm a poor mediator. I'm on a budget.

Woohoo!
