I think you made some great choices. I can't wait to see them on you.
The Anthro links may or may not have enabled me. They have some great shoes.

Inge - I checked with Amazon's return policy and they do offer free returns on shoes, so that's a good thing.

Shevia - I feel kind of bad because I think a few folks have gone shoe hunting as a result of my thread(s) - sorry 'bout that!

Ariadne - I have tried the animal print flats and they fit really well and are very comfortable. But I need to go get them soon because my size always sells out quickly.

Suz - you are such a SWEETHEART to offer that! There is one store in the city that sells Cole Haan but not the full line. I'm going to nip in there next week and see if they have the Skylar. At the very least, I can try on a whatever Cole Haan shoes they carry and get an idea of sizing and fit, right?

Debbie - yeah, those Anthro links are very tempting aren't they? Did you order anything?

The animal print flats & oxfords will be worn more. And the oxfords are more trendy, and will go great with jeans. So I'd vote in this order:
- Cole Haan oxfords
- Arturo Chiang animal flats
- Doc spring boots

Yes I am blaming my Oxford purchase on you!!

But when I saw the silver Skylar at a good price on Amazon, after thinking about if for a few weeks, I felt it was a sign that they were destined to be mine!

I love your choices, Shannon!
