Welcome to the Maison

I feel like a kid on Christmas Eve, waiting for tomorrow to come - to walk down the hallway and see a glittering tree surrounded by presents, delightful tunes and smells filling the air.

Or the modern day version. Waiting for a package from Saks to arrive, holding precious Margielas inside. Purchased not only majorly on sale, but using generously gifted gift cards received at Christmastime (to me, gift cards are precious...it takes me forever to use them, because I want to make sure to use them at exactly the right time, exactly the right way...hell, I have some that I've lost or have expired in the course of my weird holding pattern, you'd think I'd learn...) and only at minor cost to my Mastercard.

I just clicked 'Submit Order' and am all a-twitter.

Behold, the shoes:

Maison Martin Margiela Ovine Sandals, now $370.79 (available at Saks).
