Tory Burch Delivery Day!



Friday was Tory Burch Delivery Day, courtesy Nordstrom and UPS! Nordstrom is running a great sale on some Tory styles and I finally ordered some Sophies as well as Miller sandals and some flip-flops, both in bright pink. My upcoming winter vacation wardrobe is obviously going to be centered around pink shoes.

Friday was also my Boden pre-order delivery day -- more on that soon!

First, the flip-flops. These fit just like your basic casual thong sandal -- they come in whole sizes only so I went up to a 9. They are a little roomy but fit fine. The upper straps are a little stiff but for me, the happy, bright printed footbed and cute little gold logo on pink make up for it. These will be great for hotel room-to-pool treks as well as going for pedis, and I'm sure they'll get lots of use when Seattle heats up in August too.



Now, the Millers... oh my gracious I looooovvvve these! They are super comfy and I love the style. The upper fits just above my foot (not snug against it - it's a little stiff) so it doesn't bother and is high enough on the foot to keep these securely on, even without a back. The footbed is slightly padded and is just a smidge shorter than some of my other sandals in 8.5 I compared these to - like Steve Madden Seeri, and a Mia style... my toes and heels come close to the edge (just cover the stitching) but there is still just a bit of space. I contemplated going up to a 9 instead of my regular 8.5 but I'm comfortable in these -- I think I could go with either size. Now I want these in another, more neutral hue too. Gold or silver??


And... the Sophies! What a great wedge. I got these in coconut suede and I think they will work well with quite a lot of my wardrobe. It is a pretty dark brown. I have a similar style of shoe by Steve Madden and these feel more comfortable on my foot. In the SM's (also 8.5) I had to put in a little heel gripper but these fit exactly right. Can't wait to wear them.

Gold or silver for the Miller's....I seem to have been going with gold stuff lately....but I guess you are going to have to think about what other accessories and jewelry.....hmmmmm....that's a real hard one or me....I love silver too.

    Can't wait to hear what you received from Boden.

  7. I did see the Sophies on sale last night on the Nordstrom site and was thinking how great these would be for work. A perfect shoe, basic enough for mixing with most pieces and still there's a little something with the wedge and ofcourse Tory's gold medallion on the vamp. Love this one! & Love the sandals for your upcoming trip!
