Shoes on the Brain

I must be in the mood for shoe shopping because after the LL Bean rain shoes last week, I stopped into Payless today with the idea to see if they had some super cheap flats or flip flops to decorate myself for an upcoming craft project. I used to have some luck with shoes from time to time in Payless. In fact, I had a pair of ballet flats with a teensy kitten heel that I liked so much I even had re-heeled when they wore out! The small heel gave them just a bit of lift to make them look nice with skirts and dresses, but they were still comfy to walk on the many brick and cobblestone sidewalks of Boston (some very flat flats look a little dull and frumpy with certain skirt styles). But I don't think I've found a nice pair of shoes in Payless since then at that was probably 4 years ago.

Today, however, Payless surprised me and I ended up with these peep toe ballet flats by Project Runway alum Christian Siriano. They are super comfortable and will be perfect with capris for work come this spring and summer.
