Take That: Lela Rose for Payless Shoes
By PAPERMAG Editors

First off, I would like to congratulate "meli," who won the Checkered Vans Wallet. Said Meli:
"Well... I love it cause I can give it different uses. Obviously, I can store my money and cards in it, but I can also use it as a mini purse to store my keys, cellphone, lipstick, even my shades. I can use it to play chess, and in an extreme case, as a mini pillow or umbrella everytime I have to place my ass on the sidewalk or whenever it rains."
Way to think outside the box, Meli!
This week's Take That item is a beautiful patent leather pair of Lela Rose for Payless shoes -- in a size 9. Sorry, my small-footed friends! Tell us why you want to strut your stuff in these fly shoes, and we'll send them your way! Thanks, as always, to our lovely Take That model Blaire Huntley, who is seriously rocking these kicks.

I am an accident waiting to happen in high heels! One night, I was running down the stairs at Lucky Cheng's for a cab wearing 7 inch shoes and ended up spraining my ankle and foot--not so "Lucky." To this day, I am in search of some good flats!

p.s.! the reason i want to strut my stuff in these shoes is because I NEED new black flats and these will go well with all my dresses and jeans. my feet will represent them all over the austin, texas day and night life!

because it is summer, and i simply need little peep-holes on these adorable feet. i can't keep them locked away in wintre garb all season! it just isn't fair to their cuteness! surely you can understand! so please, i would love to take them off your hands, altho i don't think you are wearing them right. shoes are for feets!

So cool and perfect for day to night and beyond. It pretty much doesn't get better than these awesome Payless flats. Oh, and I really should start to wean myself away from my chronic kicks habit. Make me dainty, please, without breaking the bank! xStel, size niner

These shoes are very cute! I've sworn off heels since last summer because I screwed up my toe skimboarding so I'm pretty much limited to flats. I pretty much live in them!

Oooooohh, these are adorable! They look like the kind of shoes where you can go from daytime to night-time, still looking cute AND with your sanity in tact because they're flat! I like what Payless has been doing with they're image lately—showing women that you can look put together without breaking the bank.

I walk the walk and talk the talk, send them my way!

Good looking shoes. They look like they would be comfortable as oppose to hurty. The heel is not too high and the peep toe gives it that cute charm.

those shoes must be mine. i always thought having big feet was a punishment . . . until now.

I want these shoes because they turn me on and I'd be dressed to the nine. Also, they're patent, very bold but very cute, even without round stuff. Ahh.
