Ok! I've finally had time to peruse the Nordstrom Half-Yearly Sale for shoes and made a few notes — check out our workwear picks, and (hopefully) stay tuned for some great handbag and accessory picks, later today:

• Specific shoes that are well-rated (but for some reason spread through numerous product pages) (pictured on the top two rows below)
  • Vince Camuto ‘Naureen' Pump, was $89 now $60 (4 highly-rated colors)
  • Sam Edelman  ‘Noah' Flat, was $99 now $67 (5 colors)

  • Enzo Angiolini  ‘Menz' Peeptoe Pump, was $120 now $80 (2 colors, only 1 on sale) (but: know your office! peeptoes are not appropriate everywhere!)
  • Sam Edelman Othello (was $130, now $87, available in 2 taupes, black, and a silver)
