craftgrrl | wool roving + desperate shoe question

hi & hello my fellow craftgrrls! :)

i have one thing to show & one desperate shoe question to ask.. but first, i shall start with the crafty-related part of my message because that's what this community is about! :)

i am very excited because this package arrived in my mail yesterday!

dyed wool roving! the colors together only equal an ounce, so not enough to make a hat or anything, but it looks like enough for me to get started in spinning! woohoo! i am just waiting for a drop spindle i ordered to come in the mail (i know, i could've made one, but i didn't feel like running around town with the current gas california gas prices for various supplies when it was only about $5 to buy one).

second, this part is not so crafty really, but i know many of you all have wonderful taste in fashion and there is a slight chance that one of you, somewhere, might own this pair of shoes. i saw them at nordstrom's back in april, and i had called in the store to ask the style name -- which i did get, but somewhere along the weeks, LOST the paper i wrote it down on, and i just called again, and they no longer have it in stock. anyway, the brand is B.P. Shoes and they are these cute, funky little flats.. i just need to know a style name, so i can hopefully find them somewhere else, or at least can call around at different nordstrom's and sound like i know what i want.
