Words from the e-press at New York magazine. There are plenty of sample shoes to be had! And some of my absolute favorites that I saw on Black Friday were Botkier. Even sweeter, they will give you an additional 10 percent off if you come wearing a Botkier bag or shoes! What a sweet deal — more companies should be doing that!

Enjoy!
