So the lovely Fluevogs I bought a couple of weeks ago (Mini Elif) are a little roomy. And I haven't been able to tell if they're a full half-size roomy, or what. And I don't have the original box anymore!, although I do have the invoice etc. So I finally sucked it up and called the New York store, where they'd come from, and talked to a very nice young man (actually very possibly a very nice middle-aged man) about the possibilities, and made an arrangement to have the same shoe sent to me in a half-size smaller, where I can then compare and keep the ones that fit better and send back the ones that don't in the box that I will have at that point (because either way, I'll keep one pair). Fabulous. And while I was on the phone I also bought a pair of Mini Gorgeous, because I am weak and they are fabulous and will be stupid comfortable and ... pretty much because I'm weak, really. The guy I spoke to wanted to be sure he hadn't exerted any pressure on me in any way to buy these things; I asked him if he works on commission, and then told him I thought he was doing it wrong. ;-)
Someday soon I will stop buying things I don't need. Really, I will. Any minute now.
