A Pink Miracle!

Friends. Gather round, I have a tale to tell.


The tale starts out sad. Remember when I first posted about these shoes? Those amazing, electric pink, sexy beyond belief Dolce Vita wedges? And remember how I tried and tried and tried to find them but could not?




Those were sad days, my friends. Very sad indeed. It seems impossible but even I, Queen of LA and Master of the Shopping Universe, could not track those babies down. I hunted high and low and even threw several tantrums but alas, those shoes were not to be found. I resigned myself to the sad truth and told my sister (lucky biatch who scored a pair in her size) never to wear hers near me.


AND THEN.


“I have a surprise for you! Come home immediately,” said my mother. Thinking perhaps she had ordered me an iPad (HINT HINT HINT HINT SOMEONE ANYONE), I rushed my tush home. As soon as I walked into the house my eye fell upon a large shoebox. “Open it!” she said. And open it I did.


And what did I find? There in front of me, an almost-EXACT replica of the Dolce Vita shoes… from TARGET!



TARGET! TARGET! For less than $30! How is this even possible? IS THIS A SHOPPING MIRACLE? I think it just may be.



The image from Target makes them look like they're a softer, pale pink.

WRONG! They're hot pink! See my shitty cell phone pic above for proof :)


No, this is more than just a regular shopping miracle. This is a PINK MIRACLE.


Thank you to my amazing mother for her spectacular shopping skills! I am proud to say I am her child.
