Way back when I first graduated college, I took a job in outside sales in downtown Chicago. Every day I passed by the Nine West shoe store and drooled over the wonderful things I could adorn my feet with. Once, on my way to a sales meeting, I broke a heel. Fate stepped in folks. I happened to be about a block away from this store, and immediately hobbled on over. Magic happened that day, and my love of Nine West was set in stone. Oh the freaking shoes! Nine West has, in my opinion, the best selection of heels a gal could ask for. I’ve spent many a pay check in Nine West in every state I’ve lived in, and sadly will probably continue to do so, unless someone comes up with Nine-West-Aholics meetings and I am enrolled against my will. I have a problem, seriously. I can’t leave this place without spending an arm and a leg. It doesn’t help that the staff is so freaking friendly. Everything looks great on your feet, Erica! Of course we have that in a size 11, Erica! We carry up to size 12!(Extra bonus for understanding gals with big feet want their clod hoppers to be pretty too) I particularly loved the gals in this Wolfchase Mall location. They had such a keen eye for my love of shoes AND jewelry, that by the end of the excursion they were pairing up necklaces and handbags with the shoe choices I had made. Super friendly, super helpful and very stylish.
