in the nude

as i looked over my steve madden post from last week, i was overcome with the urge to purchase the nude t-straps, but a little elementary math convinced me otherwise. on closer inspection, i realized that if i was willing to spend $160 on one pair, the more sensible thing would be to buy the other two, together, totalling the same amount and still filling my wardrobe void for a pair of nude heels. the black (dior-esque) heels are on pre-order and won't be received until august (bummer) but there's something about the brass toned studs and the embossed inlay that i adore, which kept me from substituting them with a more readily available (and more cost effective) selection from steve madden or bakers. i wasn't sure how i would feel about the oh-so-chloe triple strap heels, but once i got them on there was no turning back. love! at $50, buy these shoes!!
