One of my favorite go-to retailers for shoes is Cole Haan. The shoes are high quality, comfortable and the soles last very long. The styles are very classic and with a little maintenance, the shoes can be worn for a few years.

If you are looking for a Cole Haan outlet, may I recommend the one at Woodbury Commons? The shoes at the outlet are usually priced slightly lower than retail price. In addition, the stores usually have signs that say 50% off the sticker. With the additional 40%, you can find some real deals here. Last year around Memorial Day, they had a similar offer. Both my husband and I found buttery leather shoes for under $75.

My friend took a long lunch break and headed over to the Flatiron Kate Spade. She’s reporting back that the store had tons of sale shoes with an additional 25% off all sale items. I checked the website and it looks like the additional 25% off is only at brick and mortars. She snagged a pair of Susannahs for $111 and a Pear Tree Candy Dish for $18. Grandma would love that dish for next year’s Christmas present!!

I’m just going to come out and say it… J. Crew is prejudiced against small feet. The Holiday 09 J. Crew catalog  just arrived in the mail. Every time I get the catalog it always makes me sad because it reminds me that I won’t be able to buy any of the gorgeous shoes that are featured. J. Crew only sells a handful of shoes in size 5 and are usually limited to nothing-to-write-home-about styles like flip flops. Most of the styles that I’m lusting over start at size 5.5 and many skip 5 altogether and start at size 6. It’s not like their sizes run small so 5.5 will not fit someone who wears 5. They sell size 11 and 12 in most styles for goodness sake!! Why not 5!! I’m not asking for a size 4 or 4.5 here, JUST A SIZE 5!  S O  N O T  F A I R!

You either love them or hate them with a passion. This debate will not end anytime soon. These plastic shoes even made a debut on the recent Ugly Betty Level (7) With Me episode. In the episode, Marc slaps Wilhelmina Slater, fashion icon, after Gossip Columnist Suzuki airs photographs of Willi sporting Crocs. Soon after though, Marc can’t help but slip on a pair himself.

If you’re a size 7 or up, these Angela Pumps are screaming BUY ME! BUY ME! – $325 $130

I finally gave in and bought rain boots last week. Over the past few years, when it rains in New York City, it real pours. I’ve ruined many pairs of gorgeous pumps walking through puddles of rain water. I came across a pair of UGG Short Rain Boots marked down to $69.99 from $150 on the Victoria’s Secret clearance site and couldn’t resist any longer. I was a little worried because only size 5 was left which means it probably runs very small. There are never any size 5s left!!!

My Geranium color boots came in the mail today. The color reminds me of 2008 J. Crew cashmere sweaters. These short rain boots are so pretty. They are not overly chunky and pretty slimming for rain boots. The fur lining is an extra bonus and it actually fits my calves without any problems. I checked the VS clearance site today and they seem to be sold out. I probably purchased the last pair. They seem to be discontinued as I don’t see them on the UGG website. If you come across them from a discounter or on EBAY I recommend getting them. It’s very comfortable and the fur lining helps transition from spring/fall to winter.
