And fast forward back to now, when I found myself roaming on in to the spankin’ new Cole Haan store.  Y’all, if you have not had your toes in a pair of Cole Haan kicks lately, then I beg you to go give ’em a whirl.  The sneakers, loafers, and booties were cushy and so well-made, and I especially couldn’t get over how comfortable their heels are.  Walkin’ on a cloud, I tell ya.  And the drool-worthy picks don’t stop with the shoes.  I mean, will someone please buy me this buttery little crossbody?  The leather handbags and accessories are pretty killer, and the outerwear is comfy as can be.  Plus, the store is just plain dreamy.  You kind of want to go and kick back with one of the giant coffee table books in there.  I’m not entirely sure if they’re cool with that sort of behavior though, so don’t go in there and tell them I said that.  Do however go up in there and try on a few pairs of shoes.  These sneaks are currently at the top of my list, and I’ve got a hot date with South Coast Plaza to make it happen.
