guilty :D

Aldo is having a huge clearance sale with an online exclusive offer for an extra 25% off.  On top of that I won their draw and got a coupon for 15% off entire purchase.  According to fine print the coupon should only apply to regular priced items, but when I entered the promo code it worked on the clearance items too!  Aldo always has free shipping and full refunds in-store including clearance items.  With that in mind, this happened:

Dressy Flip Flops: $15.93 (Original $30)

Do I need it?  I kinda do, I have been looking for a pair since last year.

Do I love it?  It's pretty nice.

Note to self:  If they don't live up to style and extreme comfort expectations, return.

UPDATE: I've worn it outside now, so I must keep them.  They're okay.

Fabric Wedge Boots: $31.87 (Original $70)

Do I need it?  YES, I have needed winter work shoes since last year.
Do I love it?  It's versatile and stylish enough.  I'll wear it often.

Note to self:  I pray it's comfortable and looks ok in person...
UPDATE: Fits well with thin socks and looks pretty good.  I've also worn this outside now.  Keeping.

Leather Booties: $57.37 (Original $120)

Do I need it?  No, I can survive without it...
Do I love it?  YES!!!  I have been keeping an eye on this one forever!
Note to self:  If it's not comfy enough to dance in, take a picture then return.
UPDATE: Doesn't fit.  Return.

Suede Stiletto Sandals: $44.62 (Original $100)

Do I need it?  Absolutely not.

Do I love it?  Yes, I love the yellow, it's so cool!  It fit well when I tried in store.

Note to self:  I should probably return this one...
UPDATE: Comfy, but the yellow is not THAT outstanding.  Contemplating return.

Leather High Heel Sandals: $57.37 (Original $110)

Do I need it?  No...

Do I love it?  Yeah! I tried this on too, I look sexy in it!

Note to self:  It's comfier than stiletto but still really high, I could return it...
UPDATE: Comfy, cool... still contemplating...

I have been shopaholic lately.  Specifically, I have noticed that shopping reduces stress and elevates mood.  But, I have held back from many "it's just okay but really cheap!!!" purchases in recent months.  I can't really afford to spend the way I used to anymore.  When these shoes arrive and I get to try them on, I hope it will be easy to narrow down my deserving purchases.  I can't believe I stayed up all night for this, it's SO engaging...
