The $15 shoes that saved Edwina Bartholomew's feet at the races.

With the Spring Racing Carnival over, let’s take a minute to think about the thousands of pairs of sore feet currently being nursed by racegoers following days in high heels.

Ouch.

However there’s one celebrity attendee likely kicking her feet up in glee.

Sunrise presenter Edwina Bartholomew finished up the Spring Racing season at Stakes Day in a metallic By Johnny dress and matching silver Witchery shoes – but she had a trick up her sleeve(less dress) to avoid joining the legions of sore-footed guests.

“Fact V Fiction. $15 Target sandals that saved my Spring Carnival bacon. And by bacon, I mean feet,” she captioned the photo of both pairs of shoes.

Simple, metallic sandal/slides for under $20? They’re almost a waste as a back up shoe. (Post continues after gallery.)

Even better, the ‘Tesni Strapped Sandal’ is available in three different colours – Bartholomew’s favoured silver, black or denim.

Your feet (and your wallet) will thank you.
