I had to laugh (and then take a picture of my foot) when I read this article in the WSJ today:

I had no idea I was so fashion-forward! According to the story, there are folks out there who think it's perfectly reasonable to fork over $1,190 for a pair of sandals (that black Manolo on the left was carved from one very high-society alligator). I'm not one of them, but it does make me feel a little bit better about how much I paid to have my favorite pair resoled last year.
(Yes, it's February, and yes, I'm wearing sandals. I wear sandals all year. Because I live here. No snow for this southern chickee.)
