Shoe kick

I was innocently bringing some clothes to one of my local consignment shops, The Cedar Chest, when I spotted these mahogany Coach pumps marked down to $10. I have the worst luck buying secondhand shoes, and since I had just gotten lucky with the Ferragamos, I never thought they would fit... but sure enough they did! (Okay, maybe just a teensy bit long in the back, but I can definitely walk in them.)

Coach pumps, made in Italy, in my size, for $10. Obviously there was no question, I was buying them.
I know I keep saying I need some shopping reform, but it has not happened yet.

  6. Coach shoes for ten bucks? that's dreamy! They are so chic and versatile, I'm sure they are in very good hands (shall I say feet?) and will be worn in lots of cute outfits! Love your blazer, I've been looking for one but still no luck for this girl.

  13. Holy cow! $10 for Coach pumps?! What a great find! Love that jeweled top with the plaid!

    ReplyDelete
  14. Ferragamos for $35 AND Coach pumps for $10 within the same week?! I think I may need to reevaluate what I consider a good deal ;) Seriously, though, those are both amazing finds, how could you not pick them up? Not to mention how absolutely beautiful the pumps look in spite of being secondhand. They're like new! And they look meant to be worn the your plaid blazer. So gorgeous.

  19. OK lucky girl, you obviously have the gift of thrifting in a big way (I believe you either have the gift, or you don't. You do. I don't). I would never be able to find anything like that. And for $10??? I am seriously impressed!

  30. Seriously, how can you possibly reform your shopping ways when you keep finding such gems?? Amazing shoes marked down so low are ALWAYS worth it. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  31. what a lucky find! I wouldn't have passed them up either :)

    ReplyDelete
  32. I wish I had your kind of luck when thrift shopping. After my shopping ban this month I am going to have to hit up a few thrift stores to see what I can find. Love your shoes and that top.

  33. Um yes. That is called fate. The shoes were meant to be yours. Don't underestimate the butterfly effect of not purchasing the shoes.

    ReplyDelete

  36. i'm going to berlin this w/e so really hoping to do some shopping..shoes are on the list!

  37. I think "shopping reform" gets a pass for a pair of beautiful shoes like these! I've always been pleased with Coach's shoe construction, so these are definitely a must have.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Coach for 10 bucks ? of course I'd buy them too.
    But, I do think you need to reform, rethink your purchases and continue purging the closet.

    ReplyDelete
  39. they were meant for you! what a great price! love your sweater and that jacket. looks so good together.

  40. GREAT find! They're so pretty, and I bet they'll get a ton of wear, they look pretty versatile. But seriously, though? I'm suffering from blazer envy. Too cool.

  41. Those pumps are beautiful. I too cannot refrain from shopping and I have also had some luck thrifting. I cannot help myself =( it's bad. And I pinned every outfit with this gorgeous blazer. Maybe my tailor can make me one, with patchwork elbows of course.
