American Girl in Italy 1951 by Ruth Orkin poster, $18.70, amazon.ca

When Meredith Melling-Burke calls something a must-have, we listen. In this morning's edition of Vogue's Most Wanted, the mag's Senior Market Editor declared that the Jolie Laide flat is where it's at. I'm with you MMB - ever since I first saw that iconic American Girl in Italy poster by Ruth Orkin, I've loved the low-key sexiness of a good black flat, perfect for a passeggiata down a cobblestone street (or a quick getaway from leering Italian boys). Vogue featured the Franco Sarto Georgie Flat from Macy's which I promptly put in my shopping cart but $69 US quickly turned to $82 CDN, plus taxes, plus shipping, plus duties. A grand total of $134 later and I just knew that I could do better.

Luckily I just found the Franco Sarto Gia (a super similar version of the sandal) on sale at Sears.ca for a lovely $77.90 all in, and my order is being processed as we speak. Hooray! Do act quickly though, the sale ends at midnight tonight.
