If you can’t beat the recession, then work around it. That’s shoe designer’s Ruthie Davis’ mantra during these trying times. The collection of shoe “combos” consisting of one Davis by Ruthie Davis pump and one takedown flat in the same color so you can guarantee that the outfit will match the shoes.   Each shoe is crafted from Italian leather with some featuring hardware details. The two shoes are sold together for $698 to $798, which isn’t exactly a recession bargain but you are getting 2 shoes where you would typically only be able to purchase 1.   The shoe combo comes with a Ruthie Davis graffiti bag, made for toting the shoes around for work or travel.  And in keeping with the sushi-named collection, the styles  bear the names such as Tempura, Edamame, and Sashimi.  Anyone up for some sushi?
