Sales Roundup: June 11, 2008

By Donna Artz

When sale time comes I look for novelty shoes that I wouldn't have purchased at full price. Here are some I bought. I can assure you they fit well, and you can walk like a lady.

Nicholas Kirkwood Black Satin Pump
 
If you haven't gotten on the Kirkwood bandwagon yet, do it now. These are a sexy wonder. Two friends of mine bought them after me and we're arguing over who will wear them to my daughter's wedding. (Go figure!)
 
Org. $695 Now. $415 Shopjake.com

Dries Van Noten Rainforest Pump
 
Women complimented me all night when I wore these to a fundraiser with a green chiffon dress. Softly padded, like walking on marshmallows, and I love metal heels.
 
Org. $635 Now. $500 Call HeadstartShoes.com (215) 567-3247. Check the web for two other colors and lower prices.

Jean-Michel Cazabat Final Pump
 
The first time I wore these I almost walked into a wall, I couldn't stop staring at them. I felt like a million bucks in these classy pumps! High heeled sophistication with a metal inlay on the heel. 
 
Org. $695 Now. $355 at Barneys.com or call Vincent at the Beverly Hills Barneys (310) 276-4400, ext. 5640.

Tod's Carine Suede Wedge
 
Tod's shoes are famous for their comfort. I was looking all season for a wedge that wasn't 5 inches high. For me, a wedge is for running errands without the sting of a high heel or the copout of a flip flop. These are cool, sexy and comfortable.
 
Org. $495 Now $298 eluxury.com

Prada Fashion T-Strap
 
My alter ego 'Francesca The Tango Dancer' bought these for me at full price.
She wants what she wants and she wants it now. These are beautiful and passionate.
 
Org. $590 Now. $415 Barneys.com

L-O-V-E that Van Noten pump!
Gotta get me some. Looking foward to more from Donna's super sluthe sales tips.

I must share that I finally ordered the Kirkwood sandals (I've been lusting after them since Bridget from Madison tried them on for us)! I can't wait until they get here! With the sale price, and I got an extra 20 percent off from a coupon code I found online, I just couldn't resist!

xoxo,
