"What Fresh Hell?!" or "This Scares Me"
Seriously, the Stretch Suede Mary Jane Boot -- what??! Who wears this? It may be funny or even charming as a concept, but unless you've got a Muppet or plushie fetish *shudder* Wrinkly old cankles. Ugh. Bad Prada, bad.
I'll Spend The Rest Of My Day Pouting
It sucks when your job gets in the way of your shoe shopping. It's bad enough the small paycheck does -- but when working means you miss an online shoe sale, well, tears are in my eyes. *sniffle* This shoe was sold out before I could even open my Sale Mail! "So Haute, It's Sold Out" indeed. *pout* But at $29.70 what can you expect? It was $99! Damn jobs keep getting in my way.

Shoes Like Jelly Beans
No, not "jelly shoes" -- as if! Ugh! The shoes in this photo by John Rawlings remind me of jelly beans. ...Or maybe, given the time period, little colorful pills to pop. But hey, either way, that's what shoes are -- little pick me ups for women.

Have Your Shoes & Eat Them Too
You can have your cake and eat it too -- if the cake, the thing you love, is shoes. This Valentine's Day season, Pillsbury Holiday Shape® Cookies, themed pre-cut cookies you just place on cookie sheets and bake, has paired with Disney to make Disney Princess shoe cookies!
Adorable little rounds of cookie dough in pink and purple, slippers (Cinderella's glass slipper, no doubt) with hearts on them!
This box full didn't make it to the oven. I disregarded the box's advice and ate the cookie dough pieces raw. Yummy! Now I'm off to go find a few more -- maybe even bake a batch before I eat them. *wink* Read more...

I Thought About These Shoes All Day
I first spotted these Yves Saint Laurent shoes early this morning, in my Sale Mail from Shop It To Me, and I dismissed them as, well, ugly. Platform fringed loafers -- complete with a chain on the vamp -- in suede? As peep-toe slingbacks yet? WTF? ...But they stayed on my mind all day and so I now pronounce them ingenious!
