Nicholas Kirkwood Elastic Sandals
When Jaheel, my salesperson at Jeffrey in NYC, e-mailed me a picture of these Nicholas Kirkwood Elastic Sandals, I thought they were beautiful, but wasn’t sure if I would like them on my feet.

I had never heard of designer Tabitha Simmons, but I truly think her shoes are pieces of art. The architecture of these double strap pumps is absolutely beautiful. I love the redesign of the classic Mary Jane.

Last week, my oldest daughter had an interview at Parsons School of Design in NYC, so we decided to make it a family trip. Since my hubby was busy working in LA, we made it a girl trip! The interview went fine, and now we are keeping our fingers crossed. However, in the meantime we did some fabulous shopping!

These Nicholas Kirkwood Limited Edition Python Sandals are for lack of better words, fabulous! Some may misconstrue them as flamboyant, but only the true connoisseurs of shoes can appreciate them for what they are, a work of art.

Yay! Only four more days until I’m off to Paris, officially to visit my mother and unofficially to shop til I drop, and who knows…maybe I will find the pair of shoes that will sweep me of my feet literally! The truth is I am kind of disappointed with basically most of the spring shoe collections. OK, “disappointed” might be too strong of a word, so let’s just say “not too excited” about what I have seen so far.
