I'd just like to pause for a second to discuss the fact that it May, which is is almost half-way through 2013. I'm not really even sure what to do with that sentence, so I'll move on to May flowers and these shoes.  I knew the second that I laid eyes on these shoes that they must be in my closet. Then I tried them on while I was on a trip to LA with a girlfriend and I knew it was over.  Between the nude color, the peep-toe/slingback combo and the flower cluster on top - I was sold.  I did, however, show enough restraint until they went on sale. Then I promptly called Sterling, my fabulous shoe guy at Nordstrom, and placed an order.
